“Looking at the data, analysing the numbers, and being aware of what is happening in your business so you can make the right adjustments for greater profitability."
Jason Rose
"As business leaders, we have got to understand our numbers and know what levers to pull when we are not quite on track."
Yvonne Howard
“You have to know your numbers in a different way… you have to know more detail.”
Brisbane Has Been Booming. What Happens Next Matters.
Learn from past cycles, benchmark your business, and make better decisions this time.
The Brisbane Profit Symposium is designed as a smaller, more focused masterclass for real estate principals and senior decision-makers.
Led by Chris Mercer, this is not a conference.
It is a working session where profit, structure and enterprise value are examined in real time.
At the centre of the session is a clear, data-driven view of the Queensland market.
Brisbane has been booming.
We have seen this before.
Using REAP data, Chris will unpack what happened in previous cycles, where businesses got it right, where they got it wrong, and what real estate business owners can do differently this time.
You will see how your business compares, benchmarking performance against other states, and learn from real case studies that bring these insights to life and show how they apply in practice.
What makes this session different is the format.
Every segment is designed for interaction, with open discussion and dedicated Q&A throughout the afternoon.
This is built for engagement, not passive listening.
Supporting sessions bring additional perspective across the key drivers of performance:
• A live economic briefing from Sally Auld of National Australia Bank, connecting interest rates, capital access and economic conditions to real estate decisions
• The NAB local team, sharing how lending, cash flow and funding decisions are being assessed in today’s market
• Pendium Advisory on valuations, acquisitions and what is driving buyer behaviour
• Baybridge Lawyers on structuring for growth and managing risk as businesses scale
This is not about theory.
You will be able to ask questions, challenge ideas and apply the insights directly to your own business.
The outcome is simple.
Clarity on what the numbers are saying and what to do next.
