Thursday Nov 30, 2023
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

How to Shift from Call Reluctance to Call Confidence!
Thursday Nov 16, 2023
Thursday Nov 16, 2023
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?

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
