GARDEN CITY, S.C. – March 8, 2023 – PRLog — Garden City Realty has announced the promotion of Ashley Dixon to Director of Client Services. In this new capacity, Dixon will oversee the company’s relationship with its clients – property owners and guests. She is expected to increase acquisitions while maintaining a high retention rate by developing long-term client relationships.
Upon joining Garden City Realty in 2015, Dixon served as a Vacation Planner in Guest Services. Shortly after, she joined the Owner Services team as a Coordinator and was quickly promoted to Owner Services Manager.

She has worked to increase homeowner satisfaction by improving service quality and focusing on increasing overall return on investment through income and property care.
In 2016 Dixon received her Property Management license and her Real Estate License in 2017. Regarding her license, Dixon said, “Being a licensed professional has allowed me to have open conversations with clients and prospective clients as they seek the best ROI on their home away from home.”
In 2022, she was accepted into Leadership Grand Strand Class XLIII and is expected to graduate in May 2023. “This course has allowed me to become involved with gaining exposure to needs in our community and network with those in diverse industries to build rapport and maintain ongoing professional relationships,” said Dixon.
She works directly with management to enhance best practices for the company. As a result, she plays an integral role in company growth and retention by providing exceptional service and leading a team of incredible professionals.

There’s no doubt that Ashley will shine in this new role,” said Drew McElveen, Broker-in-Charge of Rentals.

They will be asking the following questions:
1) As we enter 2022, how has “Doing Good” (sharing causes & charitable pursuits your company participates in) shaped your story in the marketplace?
2) With our world continuing to change rapidly, what are the trends you’re seeing in the “ways” your distributors actually operate daily in the business?
3) What are the KEY educational opportunities you see for corporate teams to bring to the field today?
4) As retail customers are faced with more options than ever, what are your favorite ways to create loyalty?
5) If you could go back in time to December 2019 and share “one-thing” with yourself, what would that advice be?
