The Federation of Independent Agents (FIA) has announced three new industry partnerships for its network of agents. 

The partnerships comprise a key management system and two WhatsApp for business solutions. These are:

Keyhive.io – founded by letting agent Aaron Cambden, Keyhive is a key management system that uses scannable key fobs and a digital kiosk to manage agency keys. Agents can scan keys in and out with a simple tap and manage their locations on the go. 

Agent Connect – founded by estate agent Luke St Clair, Agent Connect is a WhatsApp for business solution that allows central management of all chats, broadcasting capabilities and CRM integration. 

Stitch.io – this is a 360 degree WhatsApp solution where agents can manage all chats from one inbox, and turn missed calls into a WhatsApp conversation.

Graham Lock, CEO of the FIA said, ‘It’s important that we continue to partner with suppliers that offer valuable, real-world solutions to our members as we continue to create a network of high-performing agents who are step by step pulling away from their local competitors. 

“As the network strengthens, so too does our commercial firepower which enables our members to enjoy significant discounts across a variety of approved suppliers.”
