Elevate: The Official Podcast of Elite Agent Magazine

And it’s that theory that forms the basis of Paul’s chat with host, Samantha McLean, on this episode of the Elevate podcast.

Ahead of speaking at Elite Retreat, Paul, who is also known as the SUMO Guy, shares invaluable insights on change, resilience, confidence and leadership.

He takes a deep dive into the power of branding, the importance of persistence, and why embracing simplicity can lead to genius moves that transform your business and life.

Paul also reveals his secret formula for overcoming challenges, the difference between “worth it worry” and “worthless worry” and how to communicate effectively by saying less, but impacting more.

Paul and Samantha also dig down into some of his bestselling books, to surface key strategies specifically for real estate professionals, including tips on high-stakes negotiations, the power of preparation and a win-win mindset.

“I think sometimes wisdom is hiding in plain sight and sometimes it’s the simple stuff that, when you realise it, you do it and you implement it and you go, that was genius.” – PAUL MCGEE
