Raising the Bar: The 2026 LeadSimple User Award Winners
By LeadSimple Team
Webinars & Events
Meet the property management teams who proved what's possible on the platform.
At LeadSimple University 2026, we paused before lunch to do something we'd never done before: recognize the customers who aren't just using LeadSimple — they're redefining what property management operations can look like. The first-ever LeadSimple User Awards celebrated six teams across six categories. Winners were awarded at LeadSimple University in Salt Lake City on Tuesday, May 12.
The Automator: Process Powerhouse of the Year
Paul Henderson, William Gregory, and Kaeden Faulkner didn't come to play! Their account holds 73 distinct process types, and last year alone they ran nearly 8,000 processes with 12 autopilot rules, many of them fully custom and triggering off advanced events most users haven't even explored. They're not using LeadSimple as a task list. They're using it as a true operational engine. And the momentum hasn't slowed: they're already approaching 2,700 processes run in 2026.

The Trailblazer: Most Creative Use of LeadSimple
Every once in a while, a customer shows us something we didn't even realize our own platform could do. lisa wise and her team at Nest DC are that customer. In just over two years on the platform, they've built more than 15 Autopilot processes, applying LeadSimple to audits, specialized marketing, business development, HR, internal team rituals, and even client communications with video baked into everyday workflows. Some of the highest automation numbers in the entire community. And they're just getting started.

The Workhorse: High Engagement Team of the Year
Landmark Real Estate Management
Some teams use a platform. This team lives in it. Amber Herman and the Landmark crew rack up roughly 45 active users every week, averaging around 3,500 tasks completed per week. Their all-time record? Over 5,000 tasks in a single week. That's not just a team — that's a machine. Daily operations run entirely through LeadSimple, and the numbers prove it.

The Growth Story: Scaled with LeadSimple
Trademark Real Estate Services
This is the award every prospect points at and says, "That's what I want to be in three years." Richard Glick and the Trademark team didn't just grow — they scaled with consistency. Over the past year alone, they added more than 100 doors to their portfolio while keeping the operation tight, the team aligned, and the bar high. More doors, continuous platform engagement, pipelines and processes working across the board, without the chaos that usually comes with rapid growth.
100+ doors added in one year · Sustained operational quality
The Connected Operator: Best Integrated Tech Stack, presented by Rentvine
This award is about making two platforms sing together in perfect harmony. Richard Shoap and the Mark Brower Properties team adopted LeadSimple Operations and Rentvine back-to-back and hit the ground running. No double data entry. No dropped handoffs. Processes triggering automatically off real lease events, real work orders, real property data. Their inbox hums with tens of thousands of communications flowing through, seamlessly. They didn't just integrate two platforms. They built one operation.

The Spark Award: Community Pioneer of the Year
Every community has to start somewhere and it starts with someone willing to go first. Misty Berger stepped up early, engaged genuinely, and brought the kind of curiosity and ambition that makes a community worth being part of. Whether it was a post, a question, or simply raising her hand and leaning in, that energy matters more than most people realize. It's contagious, and it sets the tone for everyone who comes after.
"These are your peers. These are the teams setting the bar."
Congratulations to all six winners: Rhino Property Management, Nest DC, Landmark Real Estate Management, Trademark Real Estate Services, Mark Brower Properties, and All County Colorado Springs. Your work inside LeadSimple inspires us every day, and it inspires the thousands of operators in this community who are watching, learning, and leveling up alongside you.
Here's to what you'll build next!
