Icon’s insights: Brand building and advocacy with Dylan Alcott

Dylan Alcott is a national icon imprinted on the minds of Australians. But it has taken more than a storied career as a celebrated paralympian to leave such a deep and lasting impression.

In this exclusive address, Dylan shares how he has built a personal brand around authenticity and advocacy, securing his place as one our nation’s most recognised media personalities and respected social commentators.

Attendees will not only leave inspired by Dylan’s story of growth and resilience, but will be empowered with first-hand insights on what it takes to build a brand that resonates with Australians. These skills are vital to emerge above an increasingly competitive and congested broker landscape.

Efficient and effective: Unlocking operations to elevate your business to new heights

Most brokers don't need guidance on how to close deals - they need practical insights on how to run their businesses more effectively.

In this hands-on session, Christian Paterson, Director and Head Coach at Auctus Coaching, will arm you with the latest tools and intelligence to improve your operations, giving you more time to focus on what you do best: provide credit solutions to Australians.

Christian will demonstrate how to embed efficiencies at the core of your operations, so that you can walk away with practical steps for building a resilient, streamlined business.

  • Operational competency: Essential basics, if neglected, can cripple your business over time, especially as you add staff, volume, and other business elements. Whether you are a team of 1 or 30, Christian will set the foundations for your continued success.
  • Leveraging technology: It is crucial to implement a simple digital suite that supports your day-to-day functions. Christian will showcase how to customise and optimise your CRM with automated workflow management to provide a seamless digital customer experience.
