Brad Abernathy

Brad Abernathy is a full time Realtor and Marketer.  He is Vice President & Partner with The Norton Agency in Gainesville, Georgia, is the Managing Partner of the Abernathy Cochran Real Estate Group, and the Creator and President of The Faces Of, LLC.  He grew up with real estate as his family’s business.  After completing his degree at Georgia Tech, Abernathy went to work in the business he knew all of his life.

In 2009, he and Regina Cochran formed the Abernathy Cochran Group to serve their clients together in a collaborative effort.  Together, their group has been the leader in home sales in northeast Georgia’s Hall County, closing more than $422 million in residential real estate sales since 2010. The group sets themselves apart from their peers by marketing their expertise and their client’s properties across a wide span of platforms.

Our mission is to surround and support our clients with a collaboration of talents, strengths, influence, and expertise to market and sell real estate for the best price in a successful timeframe.  We believe in a quote from Wade Boggs, “A positive attitude causes a chain reaction of positive thoughts, events and outcomes.  It is a catalyst, and it sparks extraordinary results.”

Brad and Jill have been married for 27 years.  They have two daughters, Sadie and Kate.   Home is where their family is. They live in Longstreet Hills in Gainesville, Georgia, but can also be found at the beach on Amelia Island, Florida, or at Beech Falls Farm in NE Georgia. Brad loves spending time with his family and friends, in the outdoors, golfing, walking, and reading.  They attend First Baptist Church of Gainesville.

About creating The Faces Of:

I love my community and hometown.  Anyone that knows me, knows that I LOVE Gainesville.  My company has recently sold houses here to families from 32 different states and 10 different countries.  People are finding us and loving our community, too.  We are ambassadors for our community and we thought we should introduce our community, one person at a time, to each other and to the world.  We are telling the story of our community through the terrific people that live and work here, one voice and one face at a time.

About sharing The Faces Of with other professionals in other communities through partnerships:

At first, I thought there is no way I would share our secrets.  But why not?  This platform has been the very best thing that has ever happened to us and the very best thing I have ever seen to expand one’s leadership, influence, visibility, relevance, and community reach.  It is a marketing platform that ties everything we have wanted to do into one thing.  Creating and fostering relationships is great but making a true difference in the lives of the people we spotlight is incredibly rewarding.

Sharing this project with one member of each community in this country and beyond will create an amazing network for our partners.  Can you imagine what it will be like to be a part of a vast network where you will know or become connected with the most influential and locally connected businessperson in every community?

Becoming our partner is easy.  We create the individual community website for you to use and provide you with everything you will need to run your new The Faces Of your community project.  We will also provide ideas, business development coaching, social media assistance and coaching, online group meetings with terrific speakers, encouragement every month, introduce you to other partners around the country, and help you become the most connected, visible, and relevant businessperson in your community.

A couple recent partner testimonials about The Faces Of:

The Faces Of is a brilliant idea on so many levels. I firmly believe in this program and the multiple ways it benefits my community and my business as well! The leadership and management are a pleasure to work with and their service and support is amazing. This experience continues to exceed my expectations and is already helping my business grow. Thank you TFO!  – Leonard C., TFO Partner in Michigan

I’ve found the Faces of to be a first-rate organization from Brad and Brian to the back-office web designers and their coach Ann! I would highly recommend a new or experienced realtor getting their hands on the Faces of for their town!! In fact, if I was just starting our…it would be my ONLY marketing tool. I believe in it that much! Wishing The Faces of much success!! – Chris P., TFO Partner in Canada

The Faces of Project is the perfect way to lead with Love, Appreciation and Generosity in my real estate business. Giving without expecting anything in return catches people by surprise and it is warmly received. This project has helped me excellerate my credibility and reputation in a new community. The interviews have opened doors for me that would have been very difficult to do otherwise. The Faces of The Palm Beaches is the best thing I have done to grow my database organically and authentically and I’m having a blast doing it. 8 interviews over the course of 2 months grew my Facebook business page from 60 people (mostly family & other realtors) to 276! That’s 216 new people that I can market to and extend my reach as a realtor. To say I am grateful for The Faces of Your Town, LLC. is an understatement. Keep the movement going- spread kindness, do good deeds and promote positivity! – Shawn W., TFO Partner in Florida

This program has fundamentally changed my business for the better. Very grateful for the team here and their mission to help small businesses becomes heroes in their local communities. – Reade M. TFO Partner in Georgia

 

Maya Angelou once said, We are more alike, my friends, than we are unalike.”  I love this quote. This project helped people in my town put a face with a name, helped people know each other a little bit more, it fostered community. At present, we are approaching 200 partners in North America that are creating closer community where they live and work.  Our goal is to create closer communities from coast to coast.
