Unique Solution Proves Successful Regardless of Experience

The mortgage industry has changed dramatically over the past year; it's hard to be motivated to keep working, especially when it's only part-time. At least, that's what Kevin Sandridge found.

Kevin is a teacher in Central Florida, working as a loan officer for a second job. A couple years ago, Kevin started working with start-up mortgage companies -- the industry was hot; loan officers had a steady stream of mortgage clients, with little or no marketing.

But that was then. Nowadays, clients aren't walking in looking for mortgages, and Kevin found himself spending a lot of money on advertising, trying to attract new business.

"It was really getting frustrating. I was spending so much money on advertising. I knew there had to be a better way to get business," Kevin said.

With the idea of growing his mortgage business in mind, Kevin searched the Internet and came upon a special website. He discovered the Agent Magnet Marketing Center, which focuses on helping loan officers start relationships with Realtors. The premiere source for loan officers who need an affordable solution for getting clients from real estate agents.

"I started with the Quick Start System. I began sending out emails to agents through their resources and instantly made connections with Realtors. I sent out 2,000 emails and got less than 10 bounce backs," Kevin explained.

Kevin began his email campaign and started a relationship with a top producing Realtor in his area. He's become the preferred lender for this agent.

"I find that each email campaign I send gets more successful. Realtors are telling other agents to sign up for my emails and that the information is valuable," Kevin explained.

Within two months of using the Quick Start System, this part-time loan officer has seen his business change. He's teamed with a top producing agent and sits on his website that averages 1,000 hits per week. He's getting to meet more and more agents and has a database with thousands of Realtors. But best of all, he's able to offer Realtors something of value -- and it differentiates him from competition.

"To me, it seemed like a no brainer because the Agent Magnet Marketing Center includes a money back guarantee, I knew I could try it and if my business didn't improve, I wouldn't be out any money. I also knew that if it did work, I was going to make my investment back in just one mortgage deal," Kevin said.

And he's already got that one mortgage deal in his pipeline because of the top producing agent he met using the Quick Start System.

The Agent Magnet Marketing Center offers Kevin more than advice on how to connect with Realtors. The Marketing Center includes on-going education and training. Kevin finds himself going to the Marketing Center constantly to review and brush up on ways he can improve his business. Each time, he learns a little more.

"What I liked best about the Agent Magnet Marketing Center compared to other mortgage marketing stuff on the Internet was it's not a get-rich-quick scheme," Kevin said, "There weren't any promises about how much money you'd make in a few months. Instead, there is a valuable education resource and a launching point."

Kevin's used the Marketing Center to learn new ways to market his business and grow it. He's finding this can also serve as a great way to connect with agents -- a discussion of how market changes can be a source of frustration when trying to build a business.

"I'm able to shake an agents hand and tell him I've been in the same position," he said.

But Kevin took the next step to grow his business by joining the Agent Magnet Marketing Center and hasn't regretted it. "For all the support you get, it almost seems like they aren't charging enough," he said.
