A dedicated sales professional with a career built on hospitality, homewares and houses, Louise Herterich's natural talent for customer service puts her at home wherever she is. Over the last 20 years, Louise has established her own business, grown other people's businesses and added value in a range of retail and corporate business environments ...all with a calm and committed approach that delivers real results.

Of particular interest to Louise is the way that strong relationships and wide networks can benefit her clients through an easier sale and an enhanced selling price. Once described as an "intuitive networker", Louise prefers to think of herself as a genuinely welcoming and friendly person - someone for whom immediate rapport and long-term relationships fall easily into place.

But it's Louise's track record of quantifiable sales success that really sets her apart. Committed to achieving a better bottom line, she has a proven ability to increase sales - both in terms of turnover and sales value. In real estate terms, this means finding creative ways to enhance value at every stage of the process; from a memorable first impression on prospective buyers, to impeccable marketing and home presentation, to a hard-fought final negotiation.

A Bayside resident all her adult family life, Louise's personal background is also marked by wide-ranging experiences and quantifiable successes. Born in Ethiopia where her father was working for the United Nations, Louise spent her early years in the Caribbean, before attending boarding school at Geelong Grammar and completing her Tertiary education at RMIT. Now the mother of Secondary School-age children, she says the importance of broad experience and extensive travel cannot be over-rated...it's all part of the open-hearted world view that is inherent to her outlook and her success.
