96.8% of Wyoming's offices of real estate agents and brokers with employees had fewer than five people in March 2023, compared with 92.2% nationally. 99.3% had fewer than ten.

| 1–4 employees | 429 | 96.8% | 92.2% |
| 5–9 employees | 11 | 2.5% | 4.9% |

Why the phone matters for offices of real estate agents and brokers in Wyoming
Real estate agents work on their cell phones from showings and open houses, and a missed call from a buyer can go to another agent. A business number that rings their cell, and that stays with the brokerage, keeps leads in one place. That holds for offices of real estate agents and brokers in Wyoming as much as anywhere.
Typical inbound and outbound calls for offices of real estate agents and brokers in Wyoming:
- A lender calls about a buyer's financing.
- Another agent calls to schedule a showing.
- The agent calls a buyer back after an open house.
Business texting for offices of real estate agents and brokers
