James Tostevin has been ranked Australia’s #1 real estate agent (two years in a row) – that’s no mean feat. Fortunately he’s willing to share his real estate success secrets on Australia’s #1 marketing show.
James has been ranked the number one agent in Australia in both 2012/2013 and 2013/2014, based on several criteria including sales volume, number of sales and average sale price. He is also the only agent in Australia to sell more than $300 million worth of property in the past financial year. This has been attributed to James’ energy, diligence, determination and exceptional negotiation skills.
In this candid fireside chat James reveals:
- What has had the most profound impact on his success
- What he’s yet to master
- What other agents aren’t getting right
- How he makes 200 calls to clients per week (we even role play)
- How he nurtures his list
- And plenty more real estate agent success secrets
Plus I share some inspiring feedback from a listener who’s in the process of escaping the cubicle, I have some news on Flying Solo’s Small Business Awards and I have a motivational marketing quote from Henry Ford.
Yep, another big show … Let’s go!
