The Round Sign

PropertyGuys.com is notable within the real estate industry for its use of a round lawn sign. The concept was arrived at during a group discussion at Wizard Academy. Academy founder Roy H. Williams casually mentioned to the PropertyGuys.com team that all real estate agents have one thing in common: rectangular signs. The session led to a $500,000 re-branding program.

Criticism

PropertyGuys.com's 2008 national radio advertising campaign, which singled out "Joe Schmo" real estate agents, was found to be offensive by some real estate agents for its dismissive portrayal of an agent's role in real estate transactions. Basically a convoluted reference to how they see buyers, sellers, and the market as a whole.
