Having first worked with Jim Foster in 2000 at REMAX Alliance Central in Denver, CO, as an assistant, Joseph Berry coordinated all transactions for the team (Chris Bates and Jim Foster) and helped establish Colorado Castles Real Estate’s first marketing and branding for the Colorado Castles Real Estate team.
Later in 2001, Joseph Berry went on to start a venture called Quadratic Systems as the Sales and Marketing Director. The company produced a kiosk marketing technology established to target consumers through high foot-traffic locations (hotels, colleges, shopping malls, airports, etc). Seeing immediate success, Joseph Berry continued with the startup until 2003 at which point he decided to focus solely on completing a Bachelor of Science in Marketing from Metropolitan State College of Denver with a minor in Real Estate. Joseph Berry graduated in 2005 and continued in the technology field providing hands on marketing for Nokia, the world leader in cell phone technology.
After working in a corporate marketing setting for some time, Joseph Berry wanted to get back to more personal marketing efforts and return to the real estate industry. In 2007, Joseph Berry returned to the Colorado Castles Real Estate Team as a Broker Associate adding to the Client Care Emphasis and Boutique Feel of Colorado Castles Real Estate.
