Brian Fournier

Brian Fournier serves as Vice President of Marketing for Peace Sotheby’s International Realty, bringing a unique combination of executive leadership, marketing expertise, and an enduring connection to the South Carolina Lowcountry. With a career spanning digital marketing, business operations, and luxury real estate, Brian plays an integral role in shaping the firm's brand, strengthening its market presence, and developing innovative strategies that support its agents and the properties they represent.

Brian's connection to Pawleys Island began more than 30 years ago, when his family purchased a second home in the area. Summers spent along the coast, particularly in DeBordieu Colony, fostered a lasting appreciation for the region's distinctive communities, natural beauty, and coastal lifestyle. What began as a family retreat eventually became the place he would choose to call home and build his career.

A graduate of the University of North Carolina Wilmington with a degree in Tourism Management, Brian began his professional career as an entrepreneur, establishing a digital marketing company specializing in website development, search engine optimization, branding, and online advertising. This foundation in marketing and technology shaped his understanding of how businesses build recognition, communicate value, and connect with their audiences—principles that remain central to his approach to real estate marketing today.

Since joining Peace Sotheby's International Realty, Brian has held several leadership positions, including Chief Operating Officer, before assuming his current role as Vice President of Marketing. His experience across both operations and marketing provides a comprehensive understanding of the real estate industry and the strategies required to compete in an evolving luxury marketplace. Today, he oversees the firm's marketing initiatives, brand positioning, digital presence, and property marketing strategies, working closely with its leadership and sales associates to deliver exceptional exposure for listings throughout Pawleys Island, Georgetown, Myrtle Beach, and the surrounding markets.

In addition to his executive responsibilities, Brian is a licensed Real Estate Advisor with Peace Sotheby's International Realty. His knowledge of the local market, combined with his experience in strategic marketing and business development, brings a valuable perspective to the buying and selling process. He recognizes that every property has a distinct story and that thoughtful presentation, strategic positioning, and meaningful relationships are essential to achieving successful outcomes.

Outside of his professional life, Brian enjoys spending time with his wife, Lauren, and their two children, Harper and Turner. Whether boating along the coast, enjoying the area's local traditions, or spending an afternoon on the golf course, he and his family embrace the lifestyle that has made Pawleys Island such an important part of their lives.

For Brian, the opportunity to contribute to the continued growth of Peace Sotheby's International Realty is rooted in a genuine passion for the communities it serves, the relationships it builds, and the exceptional standard of service associated with the Sotheby's International Realty name.
