About the Author

Kevin Oakley has over fifteen years of experience running mar-keting and sales operations for home builders of all shapes, sizes, and areas of expertise. Kevin has worked for two different multi-billion-dollar revenue builders (NVR and Maronda Homes) and for a private family-owned builder (Heartland Homes). In 2018, he was also named to Professional Builder magazine's "40 Under 40" list for his leadership and contribution to the industry at large. During his two years with NVR, a top-five home builder, Kevin had full responsibility for all aspects of two home-building divisions in the Pittsburgh MSA, with revenues over $125 million. While at Heartland Homes, Kevin's management helped to grow sales by 15-20 percent each year during the downturn from 2008 to 2012, while simultaneously shrinking the marketing budget by over $1.5 million dollars. Kevin's extensive background and time spent in the trenches allows him to uniquely connect with the challenges you face in any real estate market. Whether it's launching new communities, increasing online lead volume or conversion, improving your customer's experience, lowering marketing costs, helping with web design, and so much more, he has a strategy for success. Kevin speaks regularly at the International Builder's Show and Pacific Coast Builder's Conference, as well as select local home-building associations and home-building companies looking to gain an edge over the competition. He is also the co-host (along with Andrew Peek) of the Market Proof Marketing podcast (www.MarketProofMarketing.com), the industry leading weekly show for the latest digital marketing insights and special guest interviews.

Editorial Reviews

"Kevin is the original. He demystifies the pre-sales process and makes it easy for any builder to boost profits and create momentum in new community launches far beyond where they typically would be. It isn't theory, but something he did as builder himself that was created out of necessity during the Great Recession that has immense value in any market."
