A killer question

I just got off the phone with a friend who was telling me about the time she was shopping for a new service provider.

Standing out or blending in?

A new real estate agent has recently opened in my home state of Tasmania called Buzz Property. Their logo/branding and photos are super-hero-esque with one of their team ripping open his shirt to reveal a Buzz logo underneath.

Don’t get too hooked on the system

If you often read my blogs you'll know I'm a big fan of a system. I love a checklist, a procedure, a manual; in short, I'm a big fan of making a job almost impossible to mess up.

You never know who you could be talking to

I spent the last two days at a great real estate conference AREC and as I always do, I spent a good deal of time looking around the trade stands to see all the new and innovative ideas and products being offered to the real estate community.
