    Tired of feeling like you’re grinding uphill with concrete blocks on your feet in your business? I know that frustration all too well.

     

    Perhaps you’ve been putting in massive amounts of time, energy, and money only to see meager results in return. You and I both know, that's a special kind of suck.

    3 Keys to Maximizing Your Profit From the Next Refi Wave

    If you’ve been waiting for the light at the end of the high-interest rate tunnel, you’re going to love this…

     

    There are positive signs of change all over the economy. With rates and inflation dropping, a refi boom is coming to a town near you. That means more demand, more referrals and more refi revenue… FINALLY!

     

    No doubt, the next refi boom is the surge everyone’s been waiting for, but what if rates and market conditions didn’t matter to you at all? What if you didn’t have to freeze in cold water, hoping for the next wave and going broke while you wait, and create waves on demand instead?

     

    Picture this: you have a business so solid, you are perfectly primed to prosper and entirely impervious to interest rates. You own your marketing, instead of being owned by the market. Your wagon’s not hitched to mediocre, middle of the road Realtors, but you’re aligned with market-dominating, top producers who continue to win in the face of any storm.

     

    That’s what happens when you stop being a wave rider and become a systems-builder. You get to make freedom money regardless of rates, inventory, inflation, or competition.

     

    What are the 3 key steps to maximizing your profits when the next refi wave hits, and more importantly, how do you win while you wait?

     

    In this episode, we’re going to talk about how to position yourself to benefit first and most from the next refi boom, and how to prosper right now while you prepare.

     

    As rates go down, there’s going to be a bigger pool of people who will definitely want to hear from you, and will have an advantage to refinance. -Doren Aldana

     

    Things You'll Learn From This Episode:

    -Create your own waves on demand

    Instead of signing up for the suck of being a once-in-a-while refi wave surfer, how do you transform into a consistent system-builder where you can create "waves on demand"?

     

    -The Holy Grail of Communication

    If I had to choose one method to communicate with prospects, past clients and referral partners, what would it be? 

     

    -Right person, right message, right time

    How do we knock it out of the park with message that resonates with your audience?

    How Colin Shea Doubled His Commissions in the Slowest Market of His 13+ Year Career

    If you tend to root for the underdog, this story is sure to inspire you. With high interest rates, low inventory and sharply-shrinking revenue, Colin Shea was in a dark place. There was no light at the end of the tunnel in spite of his best efforts to fix the problem, except the distant hope that rates would go back to "normal" sometime soon.

     

    Then, by divine orchestration, Colin saw one of our ads and booked a call. That was the pivot point that changed everything!

     

    After landing on Planet Prosper, Colin went stratospheric (doubling his income in just 6 months) in spite of being in the most challenging market of his entire career. How did he pull off such an epic feat while his competition was dropping like flies? In this episode, Colin shares his inspiring true story, how he went from worrying about the "next deal" to winning like never before and being on track to having his best year yet with massive momentum.

     

    So many people get wrapped in negativity - when the market’s down, they’re down. If you do 10-20 deals a month, that would put you in the top 1% in pretty much every super broker in the market. -Colin Shea

     

    Three Things We Learned  

     

    -Growing While Most Are Dying

    Instead of regressing and stagnating, how do you actually progress, propel and expand?

     

    -Realtor Super Bait

    How to Shift from Call Reluctance to Call Confidence!

    If the thought of picking up the phone to call Realtors gives you the gag reflex, you're not alone. Most mortgage pros hate cold-calling Realtors, so you're in good company!

     

    That being said, the reason you don't like making those calls is because you're doing it wrong. It's kind of like sex, if you don't like it, you're probably doing it wrong!

     

    So, if you reach for that phone and your knees get wobbly, your palms get sweaty, and that phone feels like it weighs 1000 lbs, that's a symptom you're doing it the HARD WAY.

     

    Chances are, you want to bring the swagger factor to your business, but on the inside you’re scared to be an annoying pest, feeling inadequate when it comes to your value proposition, and loathe being laughed off the phone.

     

    If your confidence has gone down the drain, in a downward spiral of self-doubt and you just don't know how to get out of your own way, this episode is for you.

     

    How do you go from being afraid of the phone to mastering it and turning it into your most profitable, MONEY-MAKING MACHINE?

     

    In this episode, I share why you’re afraid of the phone, and the 3 keys to unshakeable, unstoppable call confidence.

     

    We tend to resist that which we deem, presume and assume to be painful. -Doren Aldana

     

    Three Things We Learned  

     

    -Forge the diamond within you

    It’s a tough market, but there are still plenty of deals to be had. How do you make sure the pressure makes you STUD instead of a dud?

     

    -The key to call confidence

    What does it take to become so self-assured with TOTAL CERTAINTY? It makes getting on the phone feel effortless and even fun.


    -How to win the self-image game

    Our businesses are a reflection of our inner world - our self-image. If we feel like an imposter, we’ll bring nothing but lack, limitation, and scarcity to the table. How do we shift into feeling secure, self-confident, and purpose-driven?

    How Ben Davis 4x’d His Income in Just 6 Months in Spite of This “Slow” Market

    If you’ve been on the struggle bus ever since rates went up, this is just for you...

     

    If you're like most mortgage pros right now, you’ve gone from making bank to scraping the bottom of the barrel, and you’re hunkering down waiting for rates to go back down to “normal.”

     

    Here's the rub: your bills don’t care that it’s a "slow market" and if the outflow exceeds the inflow, we've got a problem. Come hell or high water, we've got to provide for our family. The question is, how do we win in this tough market?

     

    Perhaps you're getting close to having to do something drastic, like throwing in the towel and going to look for 9-to-5 job. It doesn't matter how may so-called "solutions" you try, if you can't find one that works, eventually you're going to run out of tarmac. The struggle is real.

     

    This is where Ben Davis found himself just 12 months ago -- struggling and desperate to find something that works to provide for his family. Then he took a chance and implemented our proven marketing system. In 6 months, he 4X'd his income, all without cold calling, buying crappy internet leads or kissing butts.

     

    He’s gone from scraping the barrel to having to hire an assistant. What was his secret? How is he winning in this seemingly "un-winning" market?

     

    In this episode, Ben joins me to talk about how he created such a massive breakthrough and how you can too by emulating his simple, yet powerful approach.

     

    I went from not having that many prospects and not many applications to having way more than I started with. -Ben Davis 

     

    Three Things We Learned  

     

    -From squirt gun to fire hydrant

    How was Ben able to create a pipeline of leads and high-quality deals when so many LOs are leaving the business?

     

    -Getting the top-producing Realtors on board

    No one wants to chase Realtors only to have them not give you the time of day. What can you do instead that actually works?

     

    -How to break free from "Perfectionism Prison"

    The root of perfectionism is a flawed belief that they have to be "great out of the gate", but that's simply not true. How can you get faster, bigger results with a "seek progress not perfection" approach?
