DOUGLAS ELLIMAN · HEAD OF GROWTH
Ben Otto
GTM Architect
& Growth Strategist
I've spent my career building sales teams, playbooks, and organizations. I lead with empathy, I work my ass off, I ooze passion, and as a born closer, I win WITH my team.

WHY DOUGLAS ELLIMAN
A brand I believe in.
Marcus has reached out to me about other brokerage opportunities over the past few years. Nothing sparked my interest until he said “Douglas Elliman.”
To me, Elliman represents luxury and a philosophy I believe in: the right agent, not every agent. That is what I loved about Side’s model, and it is where I did some of my best work. I built relationships with exceptional agents and teams, helped expand into six markets, and reached 140% of my 2022 target when no one else in the company reached quota.
I want to help grow a company whose brand means something. At Elliman, that means bringing national cohesion and a clear sales strategy to an organization built around top producers, while keeping the relationships and selectivity that make the brand special.
Currently based in the DC area. My wife and I want to relocate to the NYC / Connecticut area, and I’m interested in a New York City–based role.
