Sessions addressed a range of timely topics, from the latest in digital, lifestyle and social marketing to how to communicate with and consult today’s luxury consumer, including clients in the Top 1%. In-depth discussions offered real-life examples of how the best luxury real estate specialists can become even more effective using global marketing strategies and by building lasting relationships with clients.
