It’s Time to Run Headlong into the Mortgage Industry

Episode 88

Welcome to another epic episode of The Mortgage Loan Officer Podcast, with your host, Frank Garay.

On today’s episode, I go over some observations I have as a “back to the industry” loan officer.

I’m watching so many originators come to the end of their rope wondering how they can turn things around.

I feel so lucky and blessed to have become part of the Mortgage Marketing Animals community.

I have a plan and a community of positive, encouraging originators that are crushing this market by working a genuine plan.

No gimmicks here, just an honest, scalable, easily executable plan that works. 

On today’s podcast, I also give you a link to download a simple business plan to help you map out your direction.

What’s more is, if you download the plan, we’ll walk you through it to make sure you get the most out of it.  Enjoy.

VA vs BDR – How to Utilize Them Properly

Episode 85

Welcome to another epic episode of The Mortgage Loan Officer Podcast, with your host, Frank Garay.

On today’s episode, I speak to my personal BDR, Bill Crosson.

Many loan officers who are considering getting some help may not be clear on the difference between a VA caller and a BDR.

Well, there is a big difference, if you hire the right person for the right job.

I hope it’s helpful if you’re at a point where you’re looking to take the plunge on getting some serious help.

Episode 81

Welcome to another epic episode of The Mortgage Loan Officer Podcast, with your host, Frank Garay.

On today’s episode, I speak with Jenn Biderman, the owner of MM Mortgage Training, about training new loan officers. 

Jenn’s company allows a branch manager to roll out a New Loan Officer Training Program quickly and easily.

The MM Mortgage Training course is on-line and very thorough.  This isn’t training to get a new LO licensed. 

This trains them how to be an actual Loan Officer, from marketing, doc and credit evaluation, structuring, processing, and closing. 

By running a new loan officer candidate through the MM Mortgage Training course, you’ll save an enormous amount of time as a brand manager, and get your New Loan Officer Training Program up and running.

Helpful Team Text Gadget – Emitrr.com

Episode 80

Welcome to another epic episode of The Mortgage Loan Officer Podcast, with your host, Frank Garay.

On today’s episode I talk about the new gadget I’m using for my team group texts.

On my last episode, I spoke of the power of the group recap text, and I also told you that I was working with a new product, but wasn’t sure of how effective it was yet. 

Well, we’ve been using it for a week and I’ve come to the conclusion that it is a worthwhile product to have a look at if you’re looking for an inexpensive platform that the entire team can use to communicate with. Here’s the link http://emitrr.com

Trust me. Video Doesn’t Get Easier Than This

Episode 64

Welcome to another epic episode of The Mortgage Loan Officer Podcast, with your host, Frank Garay.

In this episode, I interview Ginger Bell about the varying levels of video marketing services she provides mortgage professionals.  If you’re unfamiliar with me, I’ve been a video guy since July 2, 2007. I forged a career out of video marketing, and in my opinion, there is no easier way to get going with video than what Ginger Bell offers.  She has put together the best turn-key system I’ve ever seen, and more importantly, it’s a system that does everything right, from scripting to editing to distribution. Amazing.  I am WELL qualified to take on video marketing for myself and my daughters’ new mortgage team, but after seeing what Ginger has going on it was an absolute no-brainer to hand over the reins to Ginger and her team.  Enjoy the podcast and get with Ginger immediately.

How to Dig The Gold Out of Your Smartphone

Episode 63

Welcome to another epic episode of The Mortgage Loan Officer Podcast, with your host, Frank Garay.

In this episode, I have a conversation with Mike Cardascia and Kristin Simpson about how to dig business out of our smartphones. We’ve had a lot of conversations in the past about using a phone app to extract your contact list out of your phone called “Export by Covve”. Getting that done is the easy part, but the question we tackle on this podcast is “what do we say to these contacts when we call them?” Spoiler alert – it’s way easier than you might be thinking. Learn all this and more by tuning in!
