If you want to learn how to succeed in real estate, you should learn from the best. That’s where Jeff Lobb comes in. He got started in real estate in 1988 and worked in sales prior to that. Since then, he’s become a speaker, trainer, coach, consultant, and podcaster who has helped countless agents grow their businesses. We’re so happy that Jeff took time out of his busy schedule to speak with us about all things real estate!

"Hi, Jeff! Thanks for taking the time to speak with me today. Can you start off by telling me a little bit about yourself and your professional background?"

"Sure. I got started in real estate in 1988. At the same time that I was getting into real estate, during my college years, I had an opportunity to go work in a sales role in St. Maarten and Aruba. So I booked my college classes to take place on Mondays and I would fly out on Tuesdays to the islands, where I would sell radio advertising. I’d come back on Sunday and go to class on Monday, and do it all over again the next week. That job was a great way to learn about sales!"

"Then I got into real estate and did that for a while until I got into the .com boom. That was at the time when cellular phone data was just starting out. I had a 10-year run which gave me a lot of different experiences, both in sales and the corporate world, because I worked with everyone from startups to Fortune 500 companies in a sales leadership capacity, helping to run internet companies."

I kept my license throughout that time, so when the .com bubble burst I was ready to jump straight back into real estate. I then started taking real estate to the next level. I’ve been a top-producing agent, I’ve run teams, I’ve run brokerages, and I was a corporate executive for a franchise brand that gave me that level of exposure to the business, before parting ways with them and starting my own company Sparktank Media, which is about eight years old now.
