National award for RE/MAX recognises expansion and support

RE/MAX Australiaโ€™s Joel Davoren this week announced the real estate franchiseโ€™s inclusion in the 2017 Topfranchise Awards as listed by SEEK Business and 10 THOUSAND FEET.

โ€œWe are rated in the top ten winners for expansion and support, which is affirmation that we are on track with our core business values and beliefs.

โ€œGrowth is one of the five RE/MAX Australia key business pillars, and the mission statement speaks of creating and facilitating the experience of unlimited opportunities for RE/MAX people within the property industry and allied services.

โ€œThat is something we cannot succeed in doing for our members unless our support offering is exceptional.โ€
Head of Intelligence for topfranchise.com.au and 10 THOUSAND FEET, Ian Krawitz says, โ€œThe best franchisors listen to their franchisees needs and see their role is to support franchisees to deliver an amazing customer offer every day and support franchisees to have strong businesses.

โ€œPlacing in the top 10 for support and expansion award categories is a fantastic effort. We know how much hard work goes into innovating and evolving in order to have a great relationship with franchisees and we congratulate RE/MAX Australia on its achievements this year. โ€œ

RE/MAX Australia is part of a network ย large global footprint, with representation in more than 100 countries and territories and more than 116,000 agents. The RE/MAX Asia Pacific, which includes Australia and currently 17 other regions, is anticipated to be the companyโ€™s greatest growth sector in coming years.

Mr Davoren said, โ€œWe experienced around 30 percent growth in franchisees in around two years but our real goal is in helping the businesses in our network to themselves grow and thrive. Our KPIโ€™s are our agent count and agent productivity rather than office numbers, and both these are accelerating because real estate agents and business owners are looking for genuine freedom, flexibility and opportunity to build their business and increase profitability.

โ€œWe are building a unique community of high-performing business owners and agents that have an entrepreneurial spirit. We are so proud of what our network is doing, what they are building and our head office team is focused on creating and facilitating opportunities for our members.โ€

The Topfranchise Awards recognises the activities and achievements of Australian franchisors, with award winners determined based on the satisfaction of their franchisees. Each year, more than 1,500 Australian franchises are queried through a comprehensive survey conducted by specialist researchers, 10 THOUSAND FEET, and the number one marketplace for buying a business, SEEK Business.
