TAP 236. Real estate legend shares his business growth ideas? An interview with Christian Bartley

I know Barwon Heads, Victoria (Australia) very well.

It's a beautiful coastal town about ninety minutes from Melbourne, nestled into the dunes where the Barwon River runs into Bass Straight.

It's also a very popular target for Melbourne families looking for the ultimate beach house retreat. There are long-established loyalities where old habits die hard.

So, you might imagine that this was not the easiest of places to start a real estate business from scratch.

But that's what Christian Bartley did, then worked hard to build market share and ultimately dominate the Barwon Heads real estate market.

In this interview, Christian breaks down exactly how he did it.

With a surprising blend of proven old-school strategies and new-school tech and media ideas, Christian and his growing team built an impressive brand that property sellers and buyers are drawn to.

If you're working to grow your agency, or you're in week one of your new career, Christian has more than a few proven ideas to share.

His mantra is that many agents are big on training but struggle with execution. And in his new role as coach and mentor to Australia's new class of future-focused agents, Christian brings many years of hard-won experience and proven ways to execute your way to success to the table.
