Episode 14 - Andrew Sloan on his much-respected career as an Auctioneer

Andrew Sloan was an Auctioneer with Dalgety originally, which became Landmark and then Nutrien before he retired a few years back.

Andrew talks about his rise through the ranks and the many techniques he used to use. From breathing methods to his detailed before-sale research to his ability and emphasis to know who all the buyers were, and with a dash of humour for entertainment purposes, Andrew excelled at his craft for many decades. He was fully respected throughout the Sheep and Cattle Stud Stock game.

He also wasn't afraid to veer outside the box and do Auctions outside of Sheep and Cattle; this included Alpacas when that industry was in its halcyon days.

And we also talk about the restaurant venture......

It's a great story of someone who excelled at his career of choice and was able to work out what the client/customer wanted and needed.
