Turn Away Leads and Double Your Business

No we are not crazy! Turning away leads can really double (or more) your mortgage business. This sounds counterintuitive to what brokers think, because the standard strategy is to cast the net far and wide and get as many clients as possible. However, this results in a lot of mortgage brokers not having enough time in the day and becoming inefficient.

In this episode of Mortgage Broker Acceleration, James Veigli and Ash Playsted talk about a controversial approach to growing your business. They reveal the benefits of choosing a niche market. They share how this can help mortgage businesses attract better customers and more referrals.

Are you ready to turn away leads and grow your business? Let James and Ash inspire you with this episode.
