How Julie Bishop Went from Banking to Broking

In this interview with Julie Bishop, I took a slightly different tact.

Yes, Julie and I could have just talked about all the great things going on in her business, which she co-owns with two other brokers.

But instead, we looked at some of the challenges and opportunities Julie has worked through to transition from a successful career in banking to establishing a highly referred broking business.

Some of the discussion points included:

• When to pull the trigger on hiring staff
• Structuring and profit-sharing of a jointly owned business (in Julie’s case, with Aaron and Mike)
• Importance of vision and mission to the business and decision making
• The need to take time to work ‘on' the business, not just in it
