Course Description
Commissioned Mortgage Loan Officers need to know how to market themselves -- sink or swim -- their success depends on it. Those that learn how can earn SUPER lucrative incomes, with many doing so from the comfort of their own homes and the convenience of their time schedules. Successful MLO's can make $100k, $200k, and more just by knowing what to do and how to do it. This course details an actual day-by-day plan of actions MLOs can take to launch their careers. It will walk you through steps for discovering your one-of-a-kind strength as a professional and how to make the most of it. You will learn the two marketing approaches that combine for a 1-2 punch. This course busts at the seams with an arsenal of creative advertising and promotional tactics, giving you additional instruction on how to write various applicable press releases, radio show proposals and ads. You will learn how to blast business with technology and the internet. Imagine having a program that is better than a team of telemarketers working 24/7, freeing you up to market even more! There is an entire lesson devoted to resources such as where you can get targeted lists of leads and advertising placement all over the nation. You will learn how to form teams and networks to save you money in ads -- and how to take advantage of free advertising, where to get free software to fax the 90% of home businesses straight from your computer, and so many websites that allow you to place free classified ads.
The course contains 8 modules/lessons, with each being accompanied by quizzes, netlinks and other components. Finally, you will exit the course fresh and ready to knock em dead after doing a five-assignment course final.
