We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Bronwyn Jones a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.
Alright, Bronwyn thanks for taking the time to share your stories and insights with us today. Let’s start with a story that highlights an important way in which your brand diverges from the industry standard.
When it comes to real estate, I set myself apart by taking a truly unique approach. I don’t just consider my clients as transactions; I genuinely treat them as if they’re part of my extended family. While many real estate professionals tend to overlook these personal connections, I consider them absolutely crucial. For many clients, purchasing a home represents one of the most monumental decisions they’ll ever make. It can either be an exhilarating or an incredibly stressful experience. As their realtor, I take it upon myself to ensure that their journey is seamless, comforting, and as effortless as possible. My ultimate aim is to make them feel not just like clients, but as cherished members of an always-supportive real estate family. Moreover, I recognize that my responsibility extends beyond the transaction; I’m here to provide ongoing support even after the deal is complete.
Awesome – so before we get into the rest of our questions, can you briefly introduce yourself to our readers.
Born and raised in Australia, I’m Bronwyn Leigh Jones, and my journey has been a tapestry of diverse experiences woven together by an unwavering passion for innovation. My career began in the world of modeling and acting, where I had the privilege of gracing the screens of TV series like “Neighbours,” reaching an astounding global audience of over 70 million viewers. Yet, amidst the glamor and excitement, a relentless creative hunger called me towards new horizons. I embarked on a journey into the realm of venture capital, refining my expertise in business negotiations with a focused approach. This path eventually led me to the fascinating worlds of real estate and sustainability, where I found my true calling. In 2014, I assumed a pivotal role as an advisor to the International WELL Building Institute™ (IWBI™), propelling me into the heart of the real estate industry. Concurrently, I founded CORAL SUSTAIN, a green consulting firm dedicated to luxury real estate, sustainable development, and more. Today, as a realtor at the prestigious Oppenheim Group, I’ve cultivated trust among a high-net-worth network. I’ve earned a reputation for unwavering integrity and a steadfast commitment to client confidentiality. Beyond the world of business, I’m a dedicated philanthropist. My journey in philanthropy began as a spokesperson for the Make A Wish Children’s Foundation of Australia. Presently, I advocate for clean drinking water through Water Health International, a cause that lies close to my heart. Throughout my odyssey, I’ve ventured into various sectors. Yet, for me, it’s more than just a label; it’s about pursuing endeavors that bring happiness and satisfaction while uplifting others. In essence, my journey has been a quest for happiness, a mission for positive impact, and an unwavering commitment to empowerment. Whether through luxury real estate, sustainability, philanthropy, or inspiring others, my path is illuminated by the hope of a brighter future.
Any insights you can share with us about how you built up your social media presence?
Building my social media audience has been an exciting journey, and it all comes down to authenticity and passion. I believe in just being myself and letting my creativity shine. My love for fashion, especially showcasing my fun outfits for filming events like “Selling Sunset” and “Selling the OC,” naturally found its place on social media because it brings me immense joy. For me, it’s not just about fashion and beauty; it’s about being unique and authentic. I want my social media presence to inspire women and provide a safe and positive space. Social media can sometimes be challenging due to negativity, but I strive to maintain a positive and uplifting atmosphere. I’ve also been fortunate to work with an amazing social media manager, Sonali Randhawa, who owns her own social media management company, LA Media Agency. Her expertise has helped me represent my identity authentically and effectively on social media. Here’s the thing – I haven’t invested in paid marketing or media. My approach is all about genuine engagement and sharing my passions. For those looking to build their social media presence, my advice is simple: Find what truly lights you up, what you’re genuinely passionate about, and use that passion to educate and inspire others. The social media space offers countless opportunities, but it does require some trial and error and a lot of hard work. Remember, if you have a goal and you’re determined, you can make it happen. Stay true to yourself, be authentic, and let your passion shine, and you’ll naturally attract like-minded individuals who resonate with your message.
Can you tell us about a time you’ve had to pivot?
One pivotal moment in my life came when I realized the incredible strength and resilience we, as women, possess in the male-dominated business world. I transitioned from entertainment to business and sustainability because I craved growth and innovation. I saw an opportunity to inspire and empower other business women and support those women who, like me, are on innovative paths in male dominated industries like venture capital, technology and real estate. Representation matters, and by embracing entrepreneurship, I aimed to show that women can thrive in any field. The key is mutual support among women. When we lift each other up, we amplify our voices and break barriers. Success isn’t finite; there’s room for all of us to shine. My journey is a testament to the potential women have to pivot, innovate, and support one another. I hope it inspires women to chase their dreams, shatter glass ceilings, and create an inclusive business landscape together.
