Their diligent work has fuelled the business’s international expansion, offering clients unique opportunities in Dubai, Spain, and the UK. Over the last few years, the property market has experienced several notable challenges. Uncertainty in the property market has stemmed from economic fluctuations, political changes, and a rise in house prices. To meet these challenges, Advantage has implemented a bold strategy, recognising that perseverance is required during these difficult times. Adam Wood shares, “Managing a company comes with its fair share of challenges and obstacles. I generally lean towards taking calculated risks and putting in hard work to reap rewards, making it easier to handle potential challenges down the road. One significant challenge has been the rapid growth of the company, expanding from a single employee to a team of 18 within three years. While growth is inherently positive, it brings its own set of challenges, from operational challenges to team dynamics. I focus on not only hiring the right individuals but also fostering a core leadership team capable of managing and guiding the broader team. This strategic approach to team building ensures that the challenges associated with growth are met with capable hands and diverse skill sets.” Speaking on a personal note, he continues, “One significant personal challenge has been starting a family at the same time as launching a company. In the last three years, I've welcomed two sons into the world while sustaining the progress of Advantage. Balancing family commitments and professional responsibilities has proven challenging at times. Through effective time management and delegation, I've successfully organised my workload. With support from my partner and management team, I've had the right tools and assistance to overcome obstacles and effectively raise my children and develop my company.” In 2024, Adam Wood’s primary focus will be the continued growth and success of the business. While Mr. Wood has several other business ventures, Advantage has been pivotal in his professional journey, and he remains steadfast in his commitment to the company’s development. Looking to the future, the business aims to expand into new markets with a focus on entering the Dubai market. Mr. Wood enthuses, “One of the key aspects of my plan for this year involves an initiative aimed at helping others entrepreneurs and CEOs to achieve similar success. Although I can't provide detailed information at this moment, I anticipate sharing more insights and specifics around quarter two. If you're interested in staying updated on this informative initiative, please feel free to connect with me on LinkedIn.’’ Under Mr. Wood’s ambitious direction, these initiatives will further solidify the company’s position as a future-forward player in the property and investment industries.
