Becoming Agent of the year is a big deal , especially at a company as big and renowned as RE / MAX Egypt , where everyone competes and strives to achieve . We speak to Mohamed Abdel-Razik , this year ’ s Agent of the Year .
You have shifted careers a few times before you started working with RE / MAX Egypt . Why do you believe you ’ ve stuck around with RE / MAX for so long ?
I have because working in RE / MAX is not about making a salary , it ’ s about the commission you get . And it is a very high commission , I have reached the stage that now my commission is 80 %. So , it is almost as if I were a partner . This job is about people who succeed and develop themselves , not the salary . If you work , you get paid well ; if you don ’ t , you won ’ t be paid as well .
As someone who seems to crave change . How does your work with RE / MAX continue to be exciting to you ?
I haven ’ t changed that much . I first worked at my father ’ s business , then Vodafone , then RE / MAX ; so , it ’ s not much . I am against changing careers too much , I prefer stability . However , RE / MAX is a very successful model in Egypt , because those who put in an effort and work hard , manage to succeed .
You ’ ve won the Agent of the Year Award a few times before . How do you sustain such a great performance ?
I ’ ve won it once before , in 2014 . And in 2015 I was in third place , and in
2016 I won first place . When I won third place last year , I was the first on transaction . I sustain my performance with discipline with my appointments with people . Also , this job
