From Cold Calling to Sales Director: Alex Tan on Energy, Culture and Leadership

Published 1 month, 1 week ago
Description

Alex Tan began her sales career making more than 100 cold calls a day before entering estate agency during the 2008 financial crisis.

Today, she is Group Sales Director at Andrews Property Group, helping lead sales across a network of 40 branches.

In this episode, Alex shares the experiences, lessons and mindset that helped her progress from junior negotiator to senior leadership.

We discuss:

  • Why cold calling and a difficult property market gave Alex such a strong foundation
  • How estate agents need to adapt when business stops coming to them
  • Why energy and positivity are serious leadership skills
  • Building a strong culture during challenging periods
  • The role personal branding plays in recruitment
  • How to identify and attract talented people
  • Why agents must research both employers and potential clients
  • Creating a workplace people do not want to leave
  • The importance of patience, resilience and being gracious in defeat

This is an honest and energetic conversation about sales, leadership and building a successful career in estate agency.
