Ryan Anthony shares five common fitness mistakes and solutions specifically tailored for high-performing agents.• The first mistake is focusing on inputs (gym days, diets) rather than outcomes (energy, productivity, confidence)• Successful business fitness requires reverse-engineering from specific goals rather than following generic checklists• Treating fitness as a skill to develop rather than a to-do list leads to better results with less effort over time• Physical health investments deliver returns in days, not months, through improved energy, focus, and productivity• Understanding how to prioritize different aspects of health during various business cycles prevents the all-or-nothing approach• The "dimmer switch" approach allows agents to adjust fitness priorities based on current business demands• Waiting for perfect conditions to start creates permanent inaction – start imperfectly and adjust as you go• Set hyper-specific goals that connect to meaningful personal and business outcomesThe proper approach to business fitness doesn't require sacrificing business success – it enhances it by providing the energy, focus, and confidence needed to perform at your peak throughout your career.Hosted by Lee WoodwardProudly brought to you by Lee Woodward Training Systems.

Send a message directly to Lee ( Include your details )Transforming homes and maximizing sale prices through strategic renovations – that's the game-changing approach young agent Jesse Maxwell is pioneering in Newcastle's competitive real estate market.At just 25 years old, Jesse brings a fresh perspective to property sales, leveraging his background in property management to deeply understand what owners need and what buyers truly value. Working with properties around the million-dollar mark, he's discovered that half-finished renovations and dated presentations are the biggest obstacles to achieving premium prices.Jesse shares a compelling case study where he was the fourth agent to assess a partially renovated property following a separation. While other agents valued it at $800,000 and pushed for an immediate listing, Jesse spotted untapped potential. Using an innovative financing solution through SaleFunder, he secured $29,000 to complete essential finishing work – installing missing flooring, cornicing, skirting boards, and paint. The result? A stunning transformation that sold for $970,000 at auction.The philosophy is simple yet powerful: buyers consistently overestimate renovation costs and use unfinished elements to negotiate aggressive discounts. "Something that might only cost $10,000 or $15,000 to fix, they automatically assume is a $50,000 fix and ask for that adjustment," Jesse explains. By eliminating these objections before listing, property improvement plans create finished products that command premium prices in today's selective market.Beyond renovation strategy, Jesse has successfully pioneered digital timed auctions in a market where conventional wisdom said they wouldn't work. The transparency of online bidding coupled with automatic time extensions has created a more comfortable environment for serious buyers to make rational decisions without the pressure of traditional auctions.Ready to discover how strategic improvements could transform your property's value? Listen now to explore this innovative approach that's reshaping real estate sales across Australia.Hosted by Lee WoodwardProudly brought to you by Lee Woodward Training Systems.
