Quote of the Week

 

Good is somebody who delivered and allowed the company to overcome obstacles, without leaving a profound impact on its culture. Great is somebody who leads his company to achievements and performance and value that nobody was expecting it had.
                                                           ― Carlos Ghosn


President's Corner

       Is it really March already? Man well I guess we need to just keep moving forward.  This week I would like to share a couple of blunders that note professionals can avoid or overcome.

       Lack of effort. We all have occasional "off days" but it is important that we always give our best effort when we can.  Identify times when you lack motivation, and think of ways you can change your attitude.

       Insufficient prospecting. Commit to yourself that you will receive a certain number or worksheets across your desk every day, week or month and do the marketing it takes to achieving those numbers.

       Lack of commitment. Commit yourself to success in the note business, even during difficult times, and remind yourself of the benefits of persistence.

       Unrealistic expectations. It is extremely important to be realistic when setting goals for numbers of transactions closed and for gross revenue.  Unrealistic goals can lead to frustration when they go unfulfilled.

       Remember, Success Demands Action! Keep on marketing, it’s going to work! TWITA!

Question of the Week

Q - Hi Jeff,

          I am a new note broker, and have a question. I have a note that someone wants me to get a quote on, (and I went to your website to get a quote from you) but they don't know the SSN of the payor. What if the payor doesn't want to give me their (SSN), as they don't know me, and they aren't the ones who are asking for the quote? Thank you,

                                                             ~ Don

A - Hi Don!

          Thanks for the email! For an initial quote, pricing and options we do not need the SS#. We will base our pricing assuming good credit. Then when a seller accepts an offer THEN we ask for the payors SS#, you get it from the seller only, you should not be contacting the payor at all ever. Hope this helps!                    ~ Jeff
