Are you still relying on luck and outdated tactics to win listings, or are you intentionally building the kind of trust that makes business owners seek you out?When was the last time you challenged yourself to move from being a transaction-focused broker to a trusted advisor who’s known for clarity, confidence, and genuine care?
The truth is, sustainable growth and credibility in this industry don’t come from shortcuts or quick wins—they’re built through consistent community engagement, continuous education, and a sincere desire to help. The brokers who rise above the noise aren’t chasing leads or hiding behind automation; they’re investing in relationships, showing up with value, and becoming the voice of integrity in their market.
In this episode, Jason Cutter sits down with Andy Cagnetta, CEO of Transworld Business Advisors, to explore his journey from a new broker to an industry leader who helped shape one of the world’s largest business brokerage networks.
