Leadership RevealedHow One Agent Systemised Her Whole Business In Less Than 90 Days
In this special episode, John talks to Letting Agent and expert property mentor, Katrina Jones.
Katrina has a fascinating story. After making the decision at the age of 19 to sell her car, quit her job, change her name, and book a one-way ticket around the world, within 5 years’ time she would become an international award-winning Sales and Marketing Manager in Melbourne. Quite the turnaround!
She later returned to the UK and got into the property industry. Through a lot of hard work, she discovered her passion and went on to build her own business.
John and Katrina have been working together for a few years. Through working together, Katrina managed to systemise her own business within 3 months - a HUGE achievement!
During their time together, Katrina talks about Rent to Rent – what it is and how she got into it. Katrina also talks about how much systemising her business made a huge difference to her life and the process of selling her business and what criteria she had for selling.
Katrina is currently in the final stages of the handover period with the buyers and is looking forward to having more freedom and time to travel.

BEST MOMENTS
“When you’ve got the right mentor and when you’ve got a really solid goal, it’s happening or it’s happening. You’re just unstoppable.”
“This is one of the things I learned during the process of systemisation, and it was a really uncomfortable lesson for me, and it was realising that there are a lot of people out there that will do things a lot better than I can. There are a lot of people out there better, smarter, more experienced in certain aspects and I think letting go of the incredibly limiting belief that I had to be the smartest person in the business otherwise no one would respect me. I had to be constantly in control otherwise things might fall apart. When I learned to completely let go and let people make the mistake and then correct it, I’d be like oh my god, they’ve done it better.”
