Today I’m talking to Robbie Briggs, Founder and former CEO of the top luxury brokerage in Dallas Texas, Briggs Sotheby’s International Realty. Robbie walks us, with full transparency, through his journey to the top where he remained steadily for a few decades until a sudden near crash. The near crash that was reality for Robbie is one that remains only in the worst nightmares for most entrepreneurs. It was through sheer faith, focus and action that positioned Brigg’s Sotheby’s, in the end, in its most profitable position since its founding. Robbie gets real, shares on the ground examples and goes deep as he and I talk about Building a Real Estate Empire and Transforming Adversity to Advantage Along the Way.⚡️Powered by BreakthroughLuxury Coaching & Membership https://BreakthroughLuxury.com 💜 Subscribe to my channel:   https://www.youtube.com/@JereMetcalfPodcast ================Chapter Notes:00:00 Introduction01:40 The Luxury Real Estate Market: What Should We Know06:38 Work Hard & Work Smart12:08 Competition Means Success15:34 A Success Story19:18 Building Confidence 21:47 Positioning Yourself for What You Want23:53 What Makes a Top Agent 30:40 Turning Competition into Collaboration35:37 Building Your Network, the one you want42:59 Difficult Times52:49 Discovering You54:08 Believing in Yourself01:00:43 The Most Challenging Part01:05:26 The Powerful Resource in His Success01:11:01 Must Read Book01:14:58 The One ThingPeople/ Resources Mentioned: - Elon Musk - Tim Ferriss - Nike - Phil Knight - Gary Vaynerchuk - Briggs Freeman Sotheby’s International Realty - Melissa Frantz Ellerman - George Orwell - Kevin Brown - Joe Rogan - Jordan Peterson - Mother TeresaBooks: - Shoe Dog by Phil Knight - The Bible - Living Fearless: Exchanging the Lies of the World for the Liberating Truth of God by Jamie WinshipQuotes:“I don't have to prove anything to anybody.
