Homely Announces its First Brand Ambassador

July 25, 2020

Brand ambassadors are a boon for companies looking to grow their presence, bringing a positive light to a brand and promoting it to a wider audience. 

Homely.com.au has brought on a two-time REINSW Award for Excellence in Auctioneering winner and the most booked auctioneer on The Block TV series, Damien Cooley, as the company’s first brand ambassador. 

Speaking on the choice, Jason Spencer, Homely’s Co-Founder, said: 

“Through Damien’s many business ventures we’re confident this partnership will extend Homely’s brand reach considerably to the thousands of agents and consumers he works with year in, year out.”

Cooley is the managing director of Cooley Auctions and a famous auctioneer, a platform offering sellers an easier way to auction. He is in total support of Homely’s approach to home selling in Australia and that it aligns with his own company’s values. 

“Homely has proven there is a massive demand for competition and disruption in the Australian property portal space, with hundreds of top real estate principals already onboard their agent participation model. I’m so thrilled to help promote their exceptional offering to all my clients, colleagues and agent contacts, through Cooley Auctions and the Auction Now platform.”

Ewan Morton, Managing Director of Morton, said: 

“Bringing on Damien Cooley as a brand ambassador will undoubtedly elevate the Homely brand, particularly in Sydney’s eastern suburbs, by getting Homely in front of some of Sydney’s most influential agents every week at Cooley Auctions.”

Homely is a marketplace giant in Australia. Homely’s main feature is how it connects real estate agents with buyers, sellers, and renters. It houses the largest amount of street and suburban reviews that offer its users better insights on the areas they are looking to move.
