About Brett Shann

A PASSION FOR HELPING PEOPLE
My role at Living Here Townsville is to help property owners sell their most valuable asset for a premium price in a time frame they stipulate. I have worked in sales for over 15 years and have delivered the best results through personalised service and contemporary market information. These days, clients are looking for an agent who understands their individual needs and who will go above and beyond. I am passionate in helping people and their families to ensure there experience is a memorable one.

CAREER INSPIRATION
What inspires me the most about the real estate industry is it gives me the opportunity to really make something of my life by being an influential part of another person's life. A great agent is ethical, honest and listens intently to the customer’s needs. They have a burning willingness to help people and never leave a customer feeling un-educated. A great agent will help assist them to make the right choices. These decisions must be justified by clear evidence, so customers know they are making informed decisions based on the best information and evidence.

HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS
I was born in Townsville and its home to me. It’s a place that I would find hard to ever leave because it has something special about it, that holds a special place in any local’s hearts. What I love most about our region is the great community feel. Townsville people are so generous and friendly and are always eager to help and give someone a hand whenever needed.
My favourite things to do to unwind here are really easy because I love sport. I am proud to say I am a MAMIL (middle age man in lyrca) just not at the middle age. I absolutely love my cycling, football (both rugby and league), golf and going to the gym. But to truly unwind I love kicking back watching my favourite team the NQ Cowboys play. One thing I can’t live without is my family, I am very family orientated.

SUCCESS DEFINED
My biggest achieve to date is making my international target, in the first 12 months of selling office equipment. A pivotal part of my career was meeting Tony Martin (Director-Total Performance Group) my trainer and mentor for 15 months. Tony educated me in the art of solution selling which changed the way I went about the process of selling. From here my sales career took a massive leap forward and since then I have never look back my success has continued to blossom.

WISE WORDS
I was once told by a very influential person in my sales career two very important pieces of advice that I live by: "You will get all you want in life if you help enough people get what they want” & “always leave customers feeling you are worth more than what they have paid you”.
I have had many mentors over the years who all have played influential parts in my success to date. I truly believe we need to be motivated learners as life is a continuous lesson. We need to always remain open and vigilant and forever pushing ourselves to that next level. We owe this to our family, friends, clients, customers, associates, our people so they can enjoy the best results from us. I strive to be their trusted partner though this emotional process of selling their most valuable possession... their home.
