About Us

Unique Operations was created in response to a rapidly evolving real estate industry. The need for deeper relationships, being tech-enhanced, authentic branding, and reliable support services is being felt more strongly than ever before. 

Co-founders Elyse Schowalter and T.J. Schowalter started off in real estate in lead generation and marketing. Elyse took on a leadership role in erecting a lead generation team. In her first year she took the team from $0 in sales to $7 million. 

TJ Schowalter spent 7 years in the marketing field before making the transition to real estate, where he started in lead generation. Shortly after he moved into a Director of Operations role he became a marketing consultant to a variety of teams in the St. Louis area. 

TJ and Elyse are thrilled that they have been able to expand their services to help businesses outside of real estate, working with lawyers, insurance brokers, and health care professionals.
