Listen Later

In this episode, Jonny Bell shares how he scaled Wingman and HouseMark using offshoring, technology, and strategic leadership to boost efficiency, revenue, and relationships.

By combining onshore leadership with offshore support, Johnny frees his team to focus on high-value activities while transforming property management property managers now handle 250–300 properties each, compared to the usual 100–120, generating significant revenue gains.

Jonny emphasises giving value first in business, being authentic, and building long-term relationships. He shares lessons on leadership, team empowerment, and leveraging data to help agents and businesses grow.

For Johnny, success isn’t just financial—it’s about family, friendships, personal growth, and creating a life aligned with your values.
