Agency Express
Informing Through the Web
We developed a WordPress-powered website for Agency Express. The site was designed to reinforce the strong brand values of the business whilst providing information to both potential clients and prospective franchisees. Agency Express covers over 50% of all property boards across the UK – and with this coverage can offer clients a unique insight into the current trends and activities within the UK residential market. We created an API between the website and the SignMaster system to pull data on the movement and status of sign boards, which is then used in the Property Activity Index Report available on the public website.
Software To Power a Business
Accent worked closely with Agency Express to develop the SignMaster system and has worked as part of their team for over 10 years, maintaining and enhancing the system. SignMaster is the most advanced system of its kind on the market. As well as being a fully featured board management tool for estate agents, SignMaster offers the complete package for franchisees and operators, by dealing with all aspects of job management, route planning, communication with estate agents, and invoicing.
Mobile Operating
Accent has developed separate mobile apps for estate agents to manage their property boards whilst out and about, and for Agency Express’ operators, to manage all aspects of their job whilst on the road. The Operators’ App allows operators to plan their routes, navigate to jobs, pick up new jobs that are added during the day – and add notes and photos as jobs are completed, that can be seen instantly by the estate agents. And of course, the app can work offline if necessary, synchronising data when it can. The app is developed using the Xamarin framework. You can read more about this stand-out piece of work here.
