Amstate Advantage

Amstate Advantage was essentially a startup operation. The owners were in the building industry were using their existing model homes as real estate offices. They were originally operating under the name Amstate, which was a "franchise" that went out of business. The owners liked the Amstate name so we combined it with the existing Building company "Advantage Builders" to form the new entity "Amstate Advantage". Everything was created from scratch from Logo design to Website. All the Home models were revamped and upgraded to include Agent workspaces in the Garages, with private desks and Cubicles. The spare bedrooms in the models were converted into what I coin "Zip Tour Rooms" (virtual home showrooms). The extend of the Consulting is outlined below.
