YOUR AJMASTERMIND TEAM
SAM ASHDOWN
I’m Sam Ashdown, proud co-founder of the AJ Group with him below (son-inlaw and business partner). For 18 years I ferociously resisted the urge to move from industry coach to opening an agency.
One cold December evening, using my future grandkids’ quality of life as leverage, Phil blackmailed me into opening AshdownJones. How could I refuse?
Five years on, a few months after hitting a turnover of just short of a million pounds (single office, sales-only) and the subsequent opening of our second branch, Phil and I created the AJMastermind to help, grow and empower other agents to create the agency and the life of their dreams.
PHIL JONES
Since approaching Sam (at the ripe old age of 24) with the crazy idea of opening an estate agency, it’s been a rollercoaster ride for sure – both amazing and awful – luckily more of the former and less of the latter.
We’ve now built AshdownJones into a company Sam and I, and the whole team, are incredibly proud of. We smashed through our sales targets last year to reach just under £1 million in sales-only revenue, and our next goal is to create an AshdownJones branch network, taking our bespoke marketing to high-value homes across the north of England.
In creating the AJ Mastermind, we get to share our marketing and growth ideas with other like- minded agents, constantly challenging ourselves and innovating. It’s super exciting, not only steering our own growth but also witnessing that of our fabulous Mastermind members too.
