Rookie originators struggle with the learning curve needed to attract business in today’s highly competitive market. The result is lost revenue, lost dreams, or learning the hard way.

In Zero to 20 Million in a Year, we have identified the ways that new originators are quickly dominating their market and exceeding their professional goals. To create this session, we conducted countless interviews with high-performing new originators regarding their practices and techniques. They were candid about what has worked that has resulted in their unprecedented success when many others have failed. We found a consistency in the approach among all these rising stars that, when applied, resulted in originators exceeding expectations of their company and their peers.

This program offers a strategic plan that will have new originators up and running fast. The bonus is that even seasoned originators learn new ways to increase their business as well. This seminar does this by identifying for the audience the key components in their sales and marketing approach that have catapulted others to success. Attendees also benefit by connecting the dots on technology, social media and community engagement to achieve high performance results.

The market has evolved and, while some fundamentals remain the same, today’s originators have uncovered new approaches that remove the barriers to success.

The next generation of homebuyers dwarfs the previous generation in size, and the way that they approach their buying decisions is much different as well. Those who want a piece of that market need to learn the techniques outlined in this program to get to the consumer first. Many originators, both new and seasoned, spend too much time on the “what we have always done” mentality, with a bit of new technology mixed in. These techniques are not working the way they may have in the past, and this is leaving originators perplexed, frustrated, and investing in “the latest trend” in hopes of defining a new approach. Couple this issue with the fact that originators are growing tired of “traditional referral sources” like real estate agents, and they quickly understand that the way to build or increase their business lies within the gold mine of attracting the consumer organically.

In “Get Your Own Leads”, we introduce you to the concept of Incubation Selling and Marketing. The next generation of homebuyers are seekers of knowledge and lurkers on the social media platforms. They investigate what you offer before you even know that they need what you offer. Offer enough to position yourself as a subject matter expert, and they will be drawn to you. Offer the wrong message and they will see you as just another face in the social media crowd and shop around for the “best rate”.

In this session you will learn techniques that have been updated and re-created to put you in charge of establishing your own source of referrals, the consumer!

What You Will Learn:

• – How to Attract Today’s Consumer to Your Business
• – Flipping the Referral Roles from “Lender to Real Estate Agent”
• – Key Components of Incubation Sales & Marketing within Your Social & Community Networks
• – Branding Yourself as the Subject Matter Expert in Your Network
• – Removing the “What Is Your Rate” Question from the Conversation

This session is recommended for Loan Originators, Sales Managers, Marketing Managers, Content Developers and Training Personnel.
