Ever wonder if perhaps there’s something you should be doing differently? Could 2020 be better for your production, just by making a slight change or improvement to your process?

We’re heading into the Holiday season soon, and that usually means looking out for your “Fellow Man” (Fellow Human might be the better way to phrase the colloquialism today), give to others that don’t have as much, etc. You know what I’m talking about…
In the business world, however, it’s the opposite. The big are getting bigger, because they’re taking from the smaller. Volume projections for 2020 show the Mortgage Pie is getting smaller, but your piece of the Mortgage Pie is getting smaller, too, and you probably didn’t even know it.
In this Rick’s Picks:
- A Mammoth Partnership was created. Have you heard about this?
- A Sinister Plot? Big Insurance has a plan to take your mortgage business.
- A Losing Battle? Not if you do something about it immediately.
- You NEED to watch this to protect your business relationships and future mortgage origination business…
- All in just 4 minutes
