My name is Ryan Dobbs, and I'm writing this personally because I'm looking for a Co-Founder to help me build a dominant real estate brokerage. I've built a high-performing team in Bakersfield, CA, and now I'm ready to scale this model across Southern California and beyond. I know I can't do it alone.
I've been in real estate for 10 years. I started as a solo agent in my 20s, found early success, and quickly realized I didn't want to just sell homes forever-I wanted to build a real business. Now at 35, with a wife and two kids, I'm all in on growing something massive-and I'm looking for the right person to build it with.
This won't be easy. I've been building it for years, and it's been the hardest thing I've ever taken on-but also the most rewarding. It's pushed me beyond limits I didn't know I had and helped me achieve things I once thought were impossible. It will be the same for you. If you've been looking for this type of opportunity, let's talk.
This is NOT a "Sales Manager" role.
This is a Co-Founder track leadership seat in a fast-scaling real estate company.
I'm Ryan Dobbs - founder of one of the top-performing real estate teams in California - and I'm looking for my Integrator. My right hand. The operator. The finisher. The one who helps turn big visions into bigger results.
We're already dominant in Kern County and expanding aggressively into Central and Southern California. We don't need another top agent. We need a leader of agents-someone who gets fulfillment from multiplying others, not from closing more personal deals.
WHO THIS IS FOR:
You've either:
- Led a real estate sales team that crushed it
- Or coached/managed agents and watched them thrive under your guidance
And here's the truth:
- You're tired of being the one doing all the sales
- You'd rather build and scale than grind out another open house
- You want to make a real impact through people
- You're wired for execution, momentum, and results
- You're the one everyone turns to when things need to get DONE
You can take a vision, reverse-engineer the steps, build the plan, hold the team accountable, and drive it across the finish line-every time.
You are high EQ meets high drive. No off button. No excuses.
YOUR MISSION (Should You Choose to Accept It):
- Take Ryan Dobbs Realty's proven lead generation machine and build the most productive sales team in the state
- Drive agent performance and productivity through accountability, coaching, and clarity
- Turn recruiting, training, lead conversion, and agent success into a predictable machine
- Be the one who brings my KPIs, ideas, and goals to life - while I lead the vision and fuel the engine
- Lead us into new markets (LA, OC, Sand Diego, Vegas, Fresno) with your fingerprints on every move
- Build a business you'll earn ownership in
COMPENSATION:
- Base Salary + Performance Bonuses tied to company growth and profitability
- Plus: Equity opportunity after 5 years of aligned execution, ownership mentality, and results
- This is not a job. This is your shot at legacy.
LOCATION:
- Based in Bakersfield, CA (relocation required)
- Travel to LA, Fresno, Las Vegas, OC, San Diego as we scale
- You'll be boots-on-the-ground with me - not remote, not hiding behind Zoom
ONLY APPLY IF YOU:
- Have a track record of leadership in real estate (running a team or coaching agents to real performance)
- Don't want to sell forever - you want to build something bigger than yourself
- Are systems-minded, emotionally intelligent, and dangerously driven
- Can manage people, metrics, and momentum at the same time
- Are obsessed with goals, gritty execution, and winning as a team
- Want to be a co-founder, not an employee
HOW TO APPLY:
Submit your info and write a short message explaining why you're the one I should build this company with.
If you're the real deal, I'll know.
If not this ad probably pissed you off. Which means it's working.
