Visually Sold and its Beginning
In The Beginning…
The Visually Sold you all know (and hopefully love) today wouldn’t be complete without all of the people who keep the wheels turning. With nine incredible team members, a plethora of services for you to choose from and, over 36,000 homes photographed; Visually Sold has come a long way from its inception seven years ago.
But, how did Visually Sold start? How did we get to this point today?
A Simple Realization
Back in 2016, our CEO and Founder, Evan, had a simple but important realization:
“I believe anyone selling or renting a home deserves excellent visual marketing for the most valuable asset in their lives.”
You may not consider it the most profound statement but we thought it was a pretty great place to start. While managing a pizza chain in Cumming, Georgia, Evan spent time searching for homes online during lunch breaks in an empty store. Something that stood out to him was some houses had professional photos and some did not.
This was puzzling, the homes with professional photography were obviously more attractive than homes without. Evan soon discovered that there was a market for photography in real estate. Already familiar with photography through experience as a portrait and live music photographer, real estate photography came easily to Evan after meticulous research.
Soon enough, Evan had his own technique developed and we were off to the races! We had clients who were generous enough to give a new guy a shot, and they loved it! Those clients in turn told others who then came on as clients. We are proud to say that we still serve many of those first clients seven years later. The appreciation we have for those individuals is a little hard to put into words!
Eventually, the demand got to be a little too much for just Evan to handle. Between calls and appointments and editing, he was slammed!
Enter: Caroline
Any client who’s worked with Visually Sold knows Caroline, she keeps our heads attached to our bodies! Evan brought Caroline on in 2017 to help with phone calls and emails. Her pleasant disposition and knowledge help people every day! Well, at least Monday-Fridays. If you have a question, its 99.9% likely that Caroline has the answer.
With Caroline joining the team, Evan was free to take on even more shoots. Which lead to more growth within the company.
Enter: New Team Members
More growth meant we needed more hands, or cameras we should say. Many of our clients are familiar with our Director of Photography Operations, Samantha, who was a part of one of our first hiring rounds! We’ve had many wonderful team members who have come and gone over the years, each imparting an important lesson for our leadership to learn and impacting the team in a positive way.
Currently, Visually Sold has nine amazing team members; six photographers and three office staff members. We continue to strive for expansion to bring on even more team members to serve our clientele well!
What’s Next?
We still have a lot of ground to cover in Georgia! Visually Sold is proud to be your premier choice for real estate photography in the metro-Atlanta area. Additionally, we hope to expand our service area to even more parts of Georgia. What can we say? We just love the peach state we call home!
