I have a Loan Officer in my coaching program who got 2 loans from a social media post.
But, I want to be very clear…
It was not social media that brought in the deals.
It was what he said.
Here’s the post:
“Anyone else feel embarrassed right now?
I look at my numbers on MMI and I just want to hide in a dark hole.
My production is down 73% from 2022.
I had to let go of most of the people on my team.
My wife and I decided to sell our beach house so that we could stop stressing about cash in the bank.
There is a newer LO in my market that recently passed me in production for 2024.
For years, I have tied my value to my production and the income on my tax return. I enjoyed being one of the best in my market. I was outgoing and confident.
But, I’ve let this market change me.
I procrastinate.
I put off doing the things that I know will work.
I sit in my office pretending to work but finish the day wondering what I even did.I’ve never been like this before.
I can hardly recognize myself.
I know I’m not alone… but, it sure feels like I am.”
After posting this, he got 18 direct messages and 12 text messages from different realtors.
The 2 loans that were sent to him were from Realtors that he has rarely done business with in the past.
This post led to 3 coffee meetings initiated by Realtors and a potential MSA.
This was not a video with fancy editing, it was not a post about the FED or the NAR settlement…
This was a post about being a human being.
People do business with people, NOT businesses.
