“We Used to Give Them TVs…” — A Real Estate CEO’s Wake-Up Call

“I thought I was doing enough.”

That’s what Mr. Tunde, the CEO of a growing real estate company in Lagos, told us when he first reached out.

Every quarter, he rewarded his top realtors with shiny things …. smart TVs, air fryers, cash envelopes. The pictures looked great on Instagram, but deep down, he noticed something worrying:

“After the award ceremony, energy would drop. By the next day, it was business as usual.”

The competition wasn’t lasting. The spark didn’t stick.

Then, during a real estate networking dinner, he heard another CEO say:
“We don’t give our top agents cash , we give them countries.”

That night, something shifted.

What Happened Next

Mr. Tunde decided to try something different.

He called Wayfare Travels and asked, “Can you help me plan a reward trip to Capetown for my top 5 realtors?”

We said yes , and got to work.

He didn’t just get flights and hotels.

He got:

– Custom visa support
– Airport transfers
– Guided local experiences
– A group dinner on the beach under lanterns
– And five of the most loyal realtors he’s ever had

The result?

– His Q2 sales were 28% higher than Q1
– Applications from new realtors tripled
– He didn’t just reward performance — he inspired it

Why Travel Works Better Than Material Gifts

A 55-inch TV can’t compete with a trip to Zanzibar.
Cash is transactional. Travel is transformational.

When realtors see that hitting targets could mean:

  • Swimming in the warm waters of Mauritius
  • Taking selfies in front of the Burj Khalifa
  • Getting stamped into another country for the first time

…it becomes personal. It becomes emotional. It becomes unforgettable.
