Tanya Baker is back to co-host the show this week. We touch on (of course) social media and the power of authentic, personal brands, what a 'real' (estate) relationship looks like, and Tanya she's some personal stories of how she's overcome adversity to find confidence in her true self and why that's a major part of her continued success. A fantastic conversation. Thank you, Tanya!

Today’s guest brings with him a unique story of market disruption, digital transformation, client first ethic all combined with some good old fashioned estate agency practice. He’s taken two businesses from ideas to being acquired by private equity and a PLC and now works with another great, long standing agency group to drive their growth.

Now is the time to take action if you are a house seller who is looking to move this year. Sam and Mark discuss how agents can create urgency by using the time of year and what discipline looks like if you want to be a good, great or World Class Agent.

In life and agency small changes to lifestyle and habits can make a big difference and help you towards achieving your goals. Sam and Mark discuss a few ideas of small changes that you can implement immediately at no cost that will help you generate additional momentum towards the end of the year and beyond.

Sam and Mark discuss the latest Rightmove House Price Index and how agents can take National news and make it relevant and entertaining to their local market. Also faced with a listener question this episode provides advice about marketing content, pricing and team motivation.

Mark rejoins Sam this week as we discuss how we can build more trust for us as individuals and for our industry as a whole and how surrounding yourself with people better than you in sport/work/life can lead to the improvement you are looking for.

Simon's back for part two of his secondment away from the 'Opening the Gates' podcast. He talks through the first 5 months of his business and how momentum has played a huge part in his 'overnight' success.

Simon Gates returns to co-host the show while Mark is on a family holiday. Simon and Sam sum up the recent Ashes series and how test cricket draws parallels to world class real estate; and Simon shares two very different experiences friends of his have had both buying and selling recently. It's always a good chat when Simon stops by and this episode is no different.
