Problem

Armando Cagais, a newcomer to the real estate industry, needed a reliable platform to generate leads and establish his presence as a salesperson. While inspired by his wife’s success on Carousell, he initially faced the challenge of building his own client base quickly and effectively. He required a solution that could help him reach both local and international buyers while maximizing his visibility in a competitive market.

Armando joined Carousell in August 2021 and immediately began leveraging its features to promote his listings:

Bumps and Spotlight Features: These tools significantly boosted the visibility of his listings, helping him attract serious buyers from around the world.
Global Reach: Within days of signing up, Armando secured his first international client—a buyer in Switzerland looking to retire in the Philippines.
Consistent Updates: By keeping his listings updated and active, he ensured maximum engagement and lead generation.

Impact/Result

Closed a ₱3.2M deal for a house and lot within his first week on the platform.
Achieved 80% of his leads from Carousell despite being new to the platform.

“Carousell has been a big help in promoting my business all over the world. My first client from Carousell was a buyer in Switzerland looking to retire here. Just within my first week, I managed to close a deal for a house and lot worth ₱3.2M.

90% of my wife’s clients are on this platform, and now 80% of my leads come from Carousell. I don’t use other platforms and have no plans to. Carousell’s Bumps and Spotlight features help a lot in finding more clients from all over the world.

For sellers unsure about trying Carousell, I highly recommend it. You can reach clients all over the world. And for fellow merchants, always update your listings!”
