About Betty

In the competitive world of real estate, standing out from the crowd requires dedication, tenacity, and a deep commitment to personal growth. One veteran of this challenging arena is Betty Gales, a real estate agent who has spent more than three decades mastering the intricacies of the business. Gales started her career in 1985 with the Charleston-based firm "Presson and Stroman," and her journey since then is a compelling story of persistence, passion, and a desire to contribute meaningfully to her profession and community.

 

A significant pivot in Gales' career came when she decided to build a team with Keller Williams. Over four years, Gales and her team emerged as one of the most successful groups in Charleston. She also bought a ReMax Franchise, which flourished into the number-one office in the North and South Carolina Region, boasting 59 agents. The drive to always stay ahead in the industry and contribute to others' success led her to coach numerous agents, teams, and managers around the country, making a lasting impact on their careers.

 

Before real estate, Gales was a psychologist with a master's degree in psychology. This foundation has proven invaluable in her coaching, where she combines her real estate knowledge with her psychological insights to foster health, productivity, financial savviness, and work-life balance among agents.

 

Central to Gales' philosophy is the belief that life is better through contribution. She has pursued this ideal by continuously working to enhance the careers of others, whether through coaching or team-building. Today, as part of eXp Realty, a former coach with Tom Ferry International for over 7 years and Success coaching, Gales is expanding her influence, helping agents worldwide while building a residual income for herself, her team, and family.

 

Moreover, Gales' career trajectory reinforces the importance of never stopping learning, growing, and pursuing what you want. With career volume surpassing $380,000,000, including individual and team production and over a thousand transactions, Gales remains dedicated to expanding her knowledge. As an embodiment of Tony Robbins's "CANI" principle—Constant And Never-ending Improvement—Gales is always on the lookout for the next learning experience or challenge.

 

From real estate moguls to health gurus, Gales credits a diverse range of mentors, including Tony Robbins, Mike Ferry, Tom Ferry, Bob Proctor, Deepak Chopra, and many others, for shaping her approach to business and life. She listens, contributes, and always prioritizes her clients' interests, demonstrating her commitment to fostering healthy relationships, ethical transactions, and mutually beneficial outcomes.
For Gales, perseverance is key. She has weathered various market cycles, interest rates, downturns, and upturns, demonstrating an uncanny ability to adapt and persevere. Even during personal loss, such as the tragic death of her husband in 2002, Gales managed to draw on her resilience and determination, maintaining her professional focus while finding new love with Robert Jeter.

 

Her mantra of "Live your life with Passion, Purpose, and Fun" underscores Gales' guiding principles. She encourages her clients and fellow agents to identify their unique gifts and use them to contribute to the world, emphasizing the importance of pursuing their dreams fearlessly and always striving for personal and professional growth.

 

Betty Gales' journey is an inspiring testament to the power of contribution and continuous learning. Her career reflects a relentless pursuit of knowledge, a commitment to fostering others' success, and an unwavering belief in personal growth. As she looks to the future, Gales aims to continue sharing her wealth of experience and knowledge, helping others achieve their goals, and contributing meaningfully to the real estate industry and beyond.
