The UK's number one letting agent is in the midst of a national recruitment drive targeting existing agents.

Martin and Co has been awarded "Franchisor of the Year" at the Negotiator Awards. This national recognition confirms this UK wide lettings brand as a key player in both the property industry and the franchise arena.

The 'Give an Hourand' campaign is an initiative to get more and more people started up online and using the internet. They may be missing out on the huge benefits the internet can bring.

Haydn Yemm now franchise owner of Martin and Co Rugby has been in the property industry for 25 years starting as a junior negotiator. Haydn worked his way up, becoming a branch manager at the age of 22 and finally a senior partner.

It's all change at the Martin and Co head office. The lettings franchise believes in recognising current employees qualities and rewards staff with the correct benefits and is no stranger to promotions.

The letting franchise, Martin and Co has been shortlisted for four categories in total in The Negotiators Awards 2011.

The latest Greenlight report positioned Martin and Co as the most visible letting agent website when searching generic lettings keywords. Only the major property portals were ranked higher.

Martin and Co have always had a strong orientation towards online development, that is exactly why the UK's largest lettings agency Martin and Co has welcomed a new member of staff to the Web and IT Department at their head office in Bournemouth.

The Martin and Co network fought off stiff competition from both large and independent letting agents to scoop 7 regional (more regional gold and silver awards than any other lettings chain at the 2011 ESTAS) and 1 national award at the ESTAS.
