The Home Builder Digital Marketing Podcast features Alex Akel

Alex Akel of Akel Homes joins Greg Bray and Kevin Weitzel on episode #90 of The Home Builder Digital Marketing Podcast to discuss how marketing throughout the entire customer journey can help differentiate home builders.

Greg Bay and Kevin Weitzel created the Homebuilder Digital Marketing Podcast to interview industry experts and fellow marketers to learn how to succeed in this incredibly competitive world of digital marketing.

On December 8th 2021, Alex Akel, the President of Akel Homes, had the opportunity to join Greg and Kevin to discuss how the importance of the customer journey and how homebuilders can differentiate among each other.

At Akel Homes, the customer experience continues throughout the entire customer journey from the first touch point to well beyond closing. One aspect that differentiates Akel Homes’ from its’ peers is its unmatched quality. Alex Akel says, “Besides the whole journey, it goes into the products. We build a high-quality product, and we try to introduce it at as low a cost as possible, and people see it. People are so educated nowadays with all the ins and outs, features, and bells and whistles of a home. They come in with amazing questions and see the difference.”

For years, Akel Homes has competed in markets dominated by national public and private homebuilders. According to Akel, bigger is not necessarily better. What truly separates Akel Homes from the pack is the company’s focus on the customer experience. At Akel Homes, you are not just a number, you are a part of the family. As a concierge-style, semi-custom homebuilder, customers can personalize their home room by room through the Design Studio. Our dedicated sales and construction team is ready to guide you through the construction process as your home comes to life. After closing, peace of mind is included in each and every Akel home and our Home Warranty Department is well equipped to assist you as your transition and experience the first year of homeownership.

“It is a very challenging environment today with the delays, the supply chain issues, and the crazy demand that home builders are dealing with. So, once we get someone under contract, we focus on the customer experience beyond closing because the best form of marketing is referrals, word of mouth, and giving that unmatched customer experience.” – Alex Akel, President of Akel Homes.
