With a background in marketing, Harcourts Ballarat\u2019s Daniel Bozoski uses his unique skillset to get the most for clients, and that\u2019s seen him pick up a nationwide award.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Real estate agent Daniel Bozoski from Harcourts Ballarat has been named the Harcourts Australia Number 1 Rising Star of 2019.<\/p>\n

He received the nod at a gala event at the Palladium at Crown Casino recently, and the nationwide top award follows Mr Bozoski taking home the state title earlier in the year.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt feels like I\u2019ve achieved something I didn\u2019t think was possible considering I\u2019m from Ballarat,\u201d he said. \u201cOur area median price for homes is $350,000 and I was up against agents from Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, places where the median prices are a lot higher.<\/p>\n

\u201cI didn\u2019t think it was possible, but it was a goal I was striving for.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mr Bozoski has been a real estate agent for almost two years, and with Harcourt\u2019s Ballarat for most of that time.
\nHaling from Sebastopol, before he became an estate agent he worked as a concreter and then completed a degree in marketing at Federation University.<\/p>\n

It was while working in marketing that he discovered his passion for things that drew him into the real estate industry.<\/p>\n

\u201cI came from a marketing background,\u201d he said. \u201cI enjoyed the graphic design and websites, stuff like that, but I realised I loved about the job was closing deals. So selling products and services to companies. When I closed a deal that was the most rewarding part.\u201d<\/p>\n

That general marketing experience has also transferred to real estate sales and property presentation.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a skillset that Director at Harcourts Ballarat, Tim Menz said is a point of difference.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s really good with general marketing and social media marking,\u201d he said. \u201cThose two things have allowed him to advertise and promote peoples\u2019 properties in different ways that are new to Ballarat. He gains a lot of traction and ensures that he gets the best results for clients.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mr Menz also said that while Mr Bozoski\u2019s award was primarily about acknowledging his strong effort and work ethic, it partly comes as a result of Harcourts Ballarat\u2019s approach to its team members.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think it\u2019s just fantastic recognition for Daniel and his hard work,\u201d Mr Menz said. \u201cHe\u2019s often here until 8pm every night, last to leave the office, and it just shows that that hard work is paying dividends.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think it also shows we\u2019re creating a culture that people can thrive in.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
