My guest in this episode is the irrepressible Brad Filliponi, co founder of Boxbrownie.com, one of Australia’s most globally successful proptechs with a website active in four languages, and operations in more than 112 countries around the world. 

Started by professional real estate photographer Brad and his friend, technical genius Mel Myers, BoxBrownie.com is a 24/7 photo editing company providing a range of services for real estate marketing, offering a no-subscription, pay-as-you-go service, with edits returned within 24 hours. They have a global team of more than 2000 editors and a team of 200, with home base being in Maroochydore on the Sunshine Coast of Queensland. 

BoxBrownie have simplified so many elements of real estate photography and marketing, including creating floorplans, virtual staging and virtual tours, and in early 2023 they will raising the bar again with the launch of their new iPhone app, SnapSnapSnap which allows agents to take professional quality DSLR photos using just their mobile phone.
