Inman has named B2B media veteran Constance Sayers as its new chief operating officer, in charge of events, editorial, and platforms, the company announced.

Sayers will lead the buildout of Inman 2.0, the company's push to combine reporting, market data, and community into one platform for agents, brokers, and executives. She will join the leadership team and report to Tom Bohn, who became CEO of Inman in March.

Bohn has described Inman's new mission as creating "the Bloomberg of residential real estate," where millions of professionals get the news, data, and analysis they need to do their jobs.

"Connie has done the thing we are trying to do here, and she has done it more than once," said Bohn. "She has run the newsroom, built the events, and owned the revenue. She knows that a great media business is built on journalism people trust, not around it. I wanted an operator who could hold all of that at the same time and still move fast. She does not talk about operating discipline and growth. She installs it."

Sayers brings more than two decades of experience scaling B2B media, events, subscriptions, research, and content businesses. She spent nearly 20 years at Atlantic Media, holding leadership roles across Government Executive, National Journal, and The Atlantic before becoming president of Government Executive Media Group. Most recently she was CRO and publisher of ERP Today for Wellesley Information Services.

"Inman has something most media companies would kill for, a community that actually needs what it makes," said Sayers. "The ambition Tom laid out is real, and it is buildable. My job is to turn the vision into a product the industry cannot work without, and to protect the journalism that makes the whole thing worth trusting. I am here to build."
