Dr. Benedict Mutuku, CEO of Goldwyne Consult, has come a long way since his days as a realtor for leading real estate agencies. His research on 'Gaps and their effects on organisational performance in the real estate industry in Kenya' drove him to open his own firm.
With over 20 years of experience in real estate marketing, Mutuku has a deep understanding of the market pulse. He attributes his success to building around his experience and starting small, working his way up.
When he began, Mutuku had limited capital, only one client, a staff of three, and a few units in Bombolulu. However, his previous customers from his days of employment soon gave him business, and it didn't take long for the company to break even.
According to Mutuku, integrity is key in handling people's money. He emphasizes the importance of delivering what you claim you will and being timely about it. This is especially crucial for landlords who are recovering from the stresses and strains of expensive construction.
Goldwyne Consult sets itself apart by offering a full spectrum of services across the property life cycle. The company employs state-of-the-art technology while maintaining the human touch, aiming to create places where people will be proud to live and invest in.
Mutuku stresses the importance of maintaining standards, being competitive, and investing in staff. He believes that employees are the best brand ambassadors of a firm and should be made to feel part of the company.
