Join us for an inspiring webinar with seasoned industry professional, Vivek Tailor, Director at Richard Matthews Real Estate. With over a decade of experience, Vivek's journey from Associate Agent to Director is truly remarkable. His fascination with real estate began in India and grew as he assisted his father's property dealings in New Zealand. Since moving to Sydney, Vivek has navigated numerous challenges, transforming setbacks into opportunities for growth.
In his early career, Vivek faced significant hurdles, almost giving up after his first year as a stand-alone agent. However, attending AREC revitalised his passion for real estate. He developed a 90-day plan that skyrocketed his success, growing his GCI from $200k in his first year to $750k in his second year, during which he also hired his first assistant.
Vivek's leadership focuses on clear goals and continuous growth for his team. This webinar is ideal for anyone in real estate, from beginners to those seeking career advancement. Gain practical advice, hear real-life experiences, and get motivated by Vivek’s journey to a leadership role.

Do you ever wonder if the grass is greener in the real estate industry? For Louise Barton, the answer was a resounding yes! Despite finding success as a dental nurse, she craved a career that offered freedom, challenge, and the chance to connect with people outside of four walls. An unexpected phone call whilst travelling, presented her with an opportunity that would see her become North Sydney’s #1 Agent.
The journey wasn't all smooth sailing – from navigating a new country to mastering the art of storytelling to win over buyers, Louise has a wealth of experience and is ready to share the secrets that helped her transition from the dental chair to the top of the real estate game.
Unlike traditional agents, buyer's agents act exclusively for the buyer, navigating the search, negotiation, and purchase process to find the dream home for their clients. This personalised approach relieves the stress of navigating a competitive market alone. Ben Cohen, Director at Goldman Brothers, joins us for this insightful webinar. His path to real estate success wasn't paved with overnight victories. It began with the grit of a young go-getter, learning the ropes through cold calls, door knocking, and relentless prospecting. Through those early years, Ben honed his market knowledge and resilience – essential qualities that would propel him to become a top buyer's agent.

Join us as we sit down with Jess Whatman, Founder and CEO of Agentsync, an Australian Virtual Assistant Outsourcing company that supplies VAs to the real estate industry. With two decades and a ton of experience in outsourcing offshore team members, partnered with searching for a quality alternative to paying crazy $$ for an assistant in Australia, AgentSync was created. Carlie and Jess engage in an open discussion about hiring an assistant and how to determine if in-house or offshore (or both) are the way to go, depending on your business requirements.
Join us as we unpack the inspiring career journey of Alana Gargaro, the owner and operator of Residential HQ Central Coast, a real estate sales and property management business. Alana started her career on a Reception desk at the age of 14 in a local real estate office, and was about to be pushed out as a commission only sales agent at the age of 21, when Alana decided to take a risk and go down the path of starting her own real estate business instead.
