Paul Conway - Founder and CEO of Yuno
What is your career background?
Before the Yuno venture, I created luxury property developments in Chelsea, built a portfolio of properties of my own, and also built, and sold, a co-living company called Caledonia in London. In a previous life, I was in engineering on the oil rigs.
How did you come up with the idea to launch Yuno?
I started a consultancy business and immediately knew there was a problem in the property industry. When I sought advice from an accredited expert I realised that there were severe data issues, training issues, and confusion on how to deal with these issues. The idea of Yuno came from a desire to solve these problems and make things easier.
What's your proudest achievement?
5 years sober.
What are the top 3 challenges you believe your business solves for agents?
1. Lead Generation:
Estate agents can use our lead generation tool to attract portfolio landlords to them. The more value we help you create within your landlord's portfolio, the more indispensable you'll become to your professional landlords - your business will grow through new instructions from satisfied customers.
2. Increase in revenue:
Estate agents can use the Yuno platform to win new instructions by showing clients the potential of the property and its road map to revenue.
3. Reducing risk and saving time:
Estate agents can give their clients consistency and transparency throughout their journey. Stay ahead and reduce the risk of non-compliance or poor investments. Time is also money. Yuno improves efficiency by getting your clients from A-B faster, saving you time to serve even more clients.
