Building Blocks for Increasing Your Audience

Episode 22

Welcome to what was originally Loan Officer Gizmos and Gadgets – and is now ‘Mortgage Loan Officer Podcast.’ I’m so excited to be able to share not only gizmos and gadgets for loan officers, but also SO much more!

Today, we talk about how building an audience can seem like a daunting task, but it doesn’t have to be.  You just need the right strategy and the right resources to make it quick and easy.  The benefits of not only building a new audience, but even more importantly, building upon your existing audience are off the charts.  

My guest, Stefan Lubinski with Audience Builders, goes into detail on how to get it done.  He shows us how one single piece of content can cover an entire week of mortgage loan officer marketing that helps develop strong relationships that provide us revenue for years to come.  

Tune into this one, you’ll be glad you did.

Show Up Like a Friend

Episode 11

Today on Loan Officer Gizmos and Gadgets, hosted by Frank Garay, special guest Rachael Tresch, a business development specialist with Annie Mac shares her new favorite gizmo. Frank met Rachael last week at the Freedom Club event in Orlando hosted by the Mortgage Marketing Animals

In addition to the BombBomb tool that Frank talked about in a previous podcast, he now has knowledge, thanks to Rachael, about another incredible video, text, and email tool called Dubb. 

Rachael brings to light how sometimes when you say something through text or email, it doesn’t get received the way you intended. That is why sending personalized video messages is so effective in your communication. The way you start a relationship will be the foundation upon how strong it becomes.

Dubb allows you to customize the look with your logo and brand colors, as well as giving you the option to provide a link to the viewer for a CTA (call to action).
