Century 21 Germany, a major real estate franchise with over 20 years of market presence, faced a critical challenge — how could they enable their agents across Germany (including in rural and remote areas) to access high-quality property visuals reliably and at scale.
Their franchise model meant agents operated independently across geographically diverse regions, often without the resources or time to source local, professional photographers. This lack of consistency in visual content threatened to undermine the brand's premium positioning as well as the agents’ ability to win mandates and close deals quickly.
Century 21 needed a partner that could unify the visual experience across locations while integrating seamlessly into agents’ day-to-day operations.
To meet these challenges, Century 21 partnered with Backbone, a real estate marketing software platform that specializes in accelerating the marketing process for every property in an agent’s portfolio.
The partnership enabled agents to focus on selling properties while Backbone handled all aspects of the visual production workflow, from booking to delivery.
Since launching the collaboration in March 2021, Century 21 Germany has experienced significant operational and commercial benefits:
Backbone’s scalable and intuitive solutions have empowered Century 21 to uphold its premium brand promise and better serve its agents — turning visuals into a strategic competitive advantage.
“We decided to work with Backbone because we needed a partner that is not only active internationally, but who can also support our agents locally in any region.”
