This week marks a significant milestone for the Ray White Group as they celebrate the success of auctioneer and company icon, Tony Fountain of Ray White Bowral.
In the past 50 years, Tony has called over over 30,000 auctions and according to Tony, the secret to his success is having a dream.
“I have recently been asked how does it feel to be an auctioneer for 50 years and the truth is, I am bloody amazed I am still here given the pace I have lived my life,” said Tony.
“My life has certainly had its fair share of experiences and my advice for anyone out there is to believe in yourself and learn your trade. Don't expect to be a head honcho on the second day.”
Ray White NSW CEO Stephen Nell says Tony is one of the most energetic and influential people he has ever met.
“Tony has had a huge influence on my career and if it wasn't for Tony, I wouldn't be here,” said Stephen.
“He set the foundation on how Ray White started and created the most successful auction business in NSW.”
Tony Fountain is responsible for the start up of Ray White in NSW and was also involved in launching Ray White into Indonesia in the mid 90’s.
Tony is an active community member, including serving as president of the Bowral Blacks Rugby Club from 2008-2010 and often donates his time to charity work through charity auctions and other fundraisers.
He has also, in the role of a keynote speaker on motivational and other topics, addressed conferences and seminars across Australia and in Indonesia, New Zealand and the USA.
