How Loan Officers Grow in a Tough Market
What if the toughest mortgage market in years is actually giving you an opportunity to take market share?
In this episode, I sit down with Don Goettling, founder of Momentum Builder and a mortgage industry veteran with nearly four decades of experience, to talk about why loan officers who are waiting for the market to get easier may be making a costly mistake.
Don and I discuss what separates mortgage professionals who are still growing from those who have pulled back—and why your mindset, environment, systems, relationships and willingness to adapt matter more than ever.
We get into:
- Why waiting for rates or the market to “save you” isn’t a strategy
- How successful loan officers are using this market to gain share
- Why getting around other producers who are winning can expand what you believe is possible
- The role of AI, personal branding and better business systems
- Why Realtor partnerships are changing
- The difference between collecting information and actually implementing it
- Why what you do in Q4 can determine how you begin 2027
We also talk about Momentum Builder 2026, taking place October 6–8 in Dallas, Texas.
I attended last year, and I’ll be back again this year.
If you’re serious about growing your mortgage business, meeting other people who are winning in this market, and heading into 2027 with momentum instead of starting from scratch in January, check it out.

1
00:00:00.051 --> 00:00:02.852
What if the market isn't the thing holding your business back?
2
00:00:03.192 --> 00:00:14.035
For the last few years, mortgage professionals have been waiting, waiting for rates to come down, for inventory to improve, for the market to change, waiting for things to finally feel normal again.
3
00:00:14.375 --> 00:00:16.535
But what if this is the new normal?
4
00:00:16.895 --> 00:00:23.717
And what if the people who win the next market cycle are the ones actually building while everyone else is pulling back?
5
00:00:24.236 --> 00:00:25.656
You're listening to Mortgage Marketing Radio.
6
00:00:25.936 --> 00:00:34.179
My name is Jeff Zimfer, and I help mortgage loan originators grow production, build stronger referral relationships, and create a business that stands out in today's market.
7
00:00:34.279 --> 00:00:36.239
Today on the show, we're asking a critical question.
8
00:00:36.379 --> 00:00:42.841
How do you stop surviving this market and start using it to build momentum for what comes next?
9
00:00:42.961 --> 00:00:48.523
To help us answer that, I'm joined by Don Getling, mortgage industry veteran and founder of Momentum Builder.
10
00:00:48.863 --> 00:00:54.364
Don spent nearly four decades in this business as an originator, leader, coach, and community builder.
11
00:00:54.604 --> 00:00:56.305
In this episode, you'll learn three things.
12
00:00:56.665 --> 00:01:00.926
Number one, why pulling back in a difficult market may be the exact opposite of what you should be doing.
13
00:01:01.286 --> 00:01:07.008
Number two, how getting around other high-performing people can completely reset what you believe is possible for your business.
14
00:01:07.608 --> 00:01:14.950
And number three, why what you do in the final months of this year could determine how strong you start in 2027.
15
00:01:15.290 --> 00:01:25.633
Plus, Don will give us a look inside this year's Momentum Builder live event in Dallas, talking through some of the strategies, speakers, and tech, like AI and other things that are going to be designed
16
00:01:25.873 --> 00:01:38.560
Plus, Don gives us a look inside this year's Momentum Builder live event in Dallas, including the strategy, speakers, technology, AI, and relationships designed to help you turn ideas into actual implementation.
17
00:01:40.121 --> 00:01:41.681
I've been to the Momentum Builder event.
18
00:01:41.842 --> 00:01:42.822
It is a one of a kind.
19
00:01:43.202 --> 00:01:51.887
And if you're in a place where in your head you're feeling a little bit stuck, a little bit funky, a little bit challenged by some of the headwinds that are happening in the market right now,
20
00:01:52.227 --> 00:02:01.692
You owe it to yourself to get around the right people in the right room with the right mindset and strategies to help you go from just surviving to thriving.
21
00:02:02.032 --> 00:02:05.374
And the Momentum Builder live event in Dallas is the place where you can do that.
22
00:02:05.834 --> 00:02:09.116
The link is in the show notes for you to check out more and register today.
23
00:02:09.336 --> 00:02:13.158
And I encourage you to stay tuned and listen into this entire episode.
24
00:02:13.358 --> 00:02:16.480
And I encourage you to stay tuned and listen to this entire episode.
25
00:02:16.700 --> 00:02:20.682
So if you're ready to build your own momentum, stick around for this episode of Mortgage Marketing Radio.
26
00:02:31.349 --> 00:02:31.651
Hey!
27
00:02:41.021 --> 00:02:42.182
Don, welcome to the show.
28
00:02:42.763 --> 00:02:43.963
I'm stoked to be here, Jeff.
29
00:02:43.983 --> 00:02:44.844
Thanks for having me, buddy.
30
00:02:45.164 --> 00:02:48.667
It's September 10th, we're recording this, so you're listening to this soon after that.
31
00:02:49.127 --> 00:02:54.551
And I wanna talk about, because in a few minutes, we're gonna be talking about your upcoming event, Momentum Builder, in October.
32
00:02:54.972 --> 00:02:59.455
I was at the Momentum Builder last year, I believe it was, and it's a great event.
33
00:02:59.475 --> 00:03:07.381
There's some reasons why you wanna listen, stay for that, because it's fresh, it's different, it's not the same old, same old mortgage event, but we'll talk about that in a moment.
34
00:03:07.761 --> 00:03:14.366
I want to start with what a lot of people probably aren't aware of with you, I'm going to guess, is that, well, first of all, you've been around a long time, okay?
35
00:03:14.587 --> 00:03:15.627
Yeah, almost 40 years.
36
00:03:15.808 --> 00:03:16.989
I started when I was very young.
37
00:03:17.389 --> 00:03:17.829
Yeah, yeah.
38
00:03:17.849 --> 00:03:18.850
You can tell by my young looks.
39
00:03:19.410 --> 00:03:25.956
Yeah, almost 40 years, but you also have built over your career a very successful origination business, right?
40
00:03:25.976 --> 00:03:27.817
Not only personally, but also you as a leader.
41
00:03:28.198 --> 00:03:29.539
I'm reading here on the website.
42
00:03:29.979 --> 00:03:45.277
kind of the origins of Momentum Builder, and I want you to unpack this a little bit, but what I'm seeing here that I didn't know by the way, so I wanted to bring this to light, is that from starting as an originator to a regional leader, right, where you went on to oversee nine offices, 163 employees, and 1.5 billion in volume.
43
00:03:48.901 --> 00:04:05.327
Why I want to really double tap on that is because you've seen a lot, you've been around a long time, but you're also, the thing I like about you, first of all, you're a guy who's my age, so whatever that means, but you're also still very, you're still very, let's just say over 50, if that's correct.
44
00:04:05.805 --> 00:04:07.627
Yes, you're safe on that one.
45
00:04:07.907 --> 00:04:08.508
All right, cool.
46
00:04:08.628 --> 00:04:09.750
I've had a little bit of margin.
47
00:04:09.970 --> 00:04:13.994
So, but you're also still willing to adapt, right?
48
00:04:14.114 --> 00:04:18.099
And pivot and learn new skills and not be kind of stuck in the old ways.
49
00:04:18.119 --> 00:04:21.203
And I think that's what I love about what you guys are doing with the Momentum Builder community.
50
00:04:21.683 --> 00:04:22.884
But tell me this.
51
00:04:23.729 --> 00:04:25.350
We were talking about this before we hit record.
52
00:04:25.531 --> 00:04:26.651
We're in this challenging market.
53
00:04:26.671 --> 00:04:29.534
It was an interesting news day today for mortgage rates and all that.
54
00:04:29.794 --> 00:04:34.058
There's a lot of headwinds that we've been facing in this industry for some years running now.
55
00:04:34.378 --> 00:04:39.922
What's, I mean, put yourself in the chair of you're overseeing your region, you're coaching LOs right now.
56
00:04:40.023 --> 00:04:44.586
Like, what is the, what's the headline you're telling them as we head into fall of 2026?
57
00:04:44.606 --> 00:04:44.726
Yeah.
58
00:04:45.507 --> 00:05:03.753
And I appreciate you asking that, Jeff, because it's so easy right now with the challenges of the market to just want to survive, to just buckle, you know, put your head in the sand and just wait for the market to get better, for the rates to go down, for it to get back to normal, which what is this is the new normal.
59
00:05:04.593 --> 00:05:08.435
But I always tell my team, I go, how's that worked out for you in the last four years?
60
00:05:08.755 --> 00:05:10.236
Waiting for something to happen.
61
00:05:10.576 --> 00:05:30.026
On the other hand, because of momentum building and all the people in my podcast like you do, I get to interview a lot of producers and leaders finding out what's really working and what isn't working and what the difference between those that have pivoted and adjusted to this market are absolutely using as an opportunity.
62
00:05:30.366 --> 00:05:32.687
So a lot of times these downturns like...
63
00:05:33.167 --> 00:05:38.530
You know, honestly, if you look at September 10th, you're going to see that it was a horrible day in the bond market.
64
00:05:38.691 --> 00:05:42.073
So you're going to think what I'm going to see is people are going to leave the market.
65
00:05:42.433 --> 00:05:43.534
More of our competitors leaving.
66
00:05:43.914 --> 00:05:46.516
A lot of people are going to basically pull back.
67
00:05:46.976 --> 00:05:48.097
This is when you lean in.
68
00:05:48.277 --> 00:05:51.039
This is when you go grab their freaking market share.
69
00:05:51.399 --> 00:05:58.884
And I mean that passionately because there are, I interviewed plenty of people that are doing a hundred million plus 60 million, 80 million on a regular basis.
70
00:05:59.424 --> 00:06:02.605
But their mind shift is, it's all about mindset.
71
00:06:02.985 --> 00:06:10.928
They have changed the game and they believe in leaning in and being very specific of what they want and not just waiting for the market to get better.
72
00:06:10.988 --> 00:06:14.669
There's not enough market share out there, but there's plenty for you if you lean in.
73
00:06:15.009 --> 00:06:19.330
There's just, we don't have enough transactions for everybody to really flourish.
74
00:06:19.710 --> 00:06:23.792
But there's plenty of professionals that are flourishing right now.
75
00:06:23.932 --> 00:06:24.992
Well, it's interesting you say that.
76
00:06:25.907 --> 00:06:28.028
I guess it's a matter of like, what do you really want, right?
77
00:06:28.048 --> 00:06:30.069
Some people are happy closing three or four loans a month.
78
00:06:30.109 --> 00:06:32.210
And if that's what you want, okay.
79
00:06:33.310 --> 00:06:33.810
But are they?
80
00:06:34.991 --> 00:06:35.751
I don't know, right?
81
00:06:35.771 --> 00:06:40.273
I know there's a couple guys in Newport Beach that are closing four loans a month, and they're pretty happy.
82
00:06:41.378 --> 00:06:42.338
Well, there you go.
83
00:06:42.358 --> 00:06:44.519
That's when they're $2.5 million plus loans.
84
00:06:45.179 --> 00:06:46.099
Right, exactly.
85
00:06:46.159 --> 00:06:48.760
And they've been doing it for 30 years, you know, and they're like, I'm good, man.
86
00:06:48.900 --> 00:07:03.284
But wherever you're at listening to this, I think that's one of the reasons why you need to get around other people like your communities, because it brings you perspective, a different mindset, different framing around, like you just said, okay, so we had some tough news with the bond market.
87
00:07:03.624 --> 00:07:05.085
What is, how does Don see that?
88
00:07:05.125 --> 00:07:07.705
Don doesn't see that as, oh my God, bad news.
89
00:07:07.725 --> 00:07:09.066
Like this market sucks.
90
00:07:09.086 --> 00:07:10.066
I'm going to go home.
91
00:07:10.886 --> 00:07:16.871
Don sees that as opportunity to go grab market share because he knows the average LO is pulling back.
92
00:07:17.211 --> 00:07:17.492
Right.
93
00:07:17.652 --> 00:07:17.852
Right.
94
00:07:18.192 --> 00:07:24.277
Now, it's it's really important that the perspective and I don't want to you know, I'm not going to make light of that.
95
00:07:24.397 --> 00:07:25.198
There's challenges.
96
00:07:25.278 --> 00:07:28.961
I'm not going to make light that a rough day, a quarter percent, you know, rate day.
97
00:07:29.141 --> 00:07:31.062
you know, is not a challenge.
98
00:07:31.422 --> 00:07:34.044
But remember that you don't have any control over the rates.
99
00:07:34.364 --> 00:07:37.606
Every LO out there is dealing with the exact same market.
100
00:07:37.886 --> 00:07:41.709
No one's got some special secret sauce of like, well, it's okay.
101
00:07:41.729 --> 00:07:43.510
I got lower rates here in my back pocket.
102
00:07:43.810 --> 00:07:45.411
No, we're all dealing with the same thing.
103
00:07:45.491 --> 00:07:47.552
It's just how you deal with it makes a difference.
104
00:07:47.572 --> 00:07:53.556
And that's why I'm very fortunate because I get to talk to leaders that are figuring out, producers that are figuring out,
105
00:07:54.156 --> 00:07:57.678
vendor partners that are helping people create their own business and so forth.
106
00:07:57.778 --> 00:08:04.542
There are ways that you can treat this as an opportunity, an opportunity to go grab that market share.
107
00:08:04.582 --> 00:08:09.705
And even those that are waiting for the market to get better and the rates to go down, are you going to be prepared for that?
108
00:08:10.146 --> 00:08:11.406
Are you really going to be prepared?
109
00:08:11.427 --> 00:08:14.268
You're going to try to relaunch your entire business once it picks up.
110
00:08:14.608 --> 00:08:16.309
What if you already own that market share?
111
00:08:16.650 --> 00:08:17.930
You're going to even crush it more.
112
00:08:17.950 --> 00:08:21.032
You're going to 10x your business while everybody's trying to 2x.
113
00:08:21.413 --> 00:08:23.674
Why don't you prepare and 10x your business?
114
00:08:23.914 --> 00:08:24.094
Yeah.
115
00:08:24.114 --> 00:08:28.215
So the message is, if you're in this game for the long haul, don't sit on the sidelines.
116
00:08:28.275 --> 00:08:28.795
Don't wait.
117
00:08:28.835 --> 00:08:29.735
Get off the stands.
118
00:08:29.775 --> 00:08:31.376
Get into the game and build.
119
00:08:31.656 --> 00:08:32.136
Absolutely.
120
00:08:32.436 --> 00:08:32.776
Absolutely.
121
00:08:33.156 --> 00:08:37.817
I mean, you and I both know the negative part is rates are going to hit 7%.
122
00:08:38.177 --> 00:08:40.958
Me, I'm like, I got a lot of refis coming in the future.
123
00:08:41.158 --> 00:08:41.658
Think about it.
124
00:08:41.958 --> 00:08:53.581
This is creating your next refi wave, which is our gravy, our extra money where you can really within two or three months make more than you made the entire year last year when the rates come back down.
125
00:08:53.681 --> 00:08:53.761
And
126
00:08:53.821 --> 00:08:54.801
They will eventually.
127
00:08:54.921 --> 00:08:55.942
I'm sorry, they always do.
128
00:08:56.222 --> 00:08:58.662
They just haven't for an extended period of time.
129
00:08:58.702 --> 00:08:59.923
I get it, but they will.
130
00:09:00.183 --> 00:09:04.804
So this is just creating your next refi boom, but you better be in contact with your clients.
131
00:09:05.084 --> 00:09:07.105
Otherwise, no one else is going to grab those.
132
00:09:07.385 --> 00:09:11.166
All right, so take me back to 2018 when you started Momentum Builder.
133
00:09:11.246 --> 00:09:13.267
What was the purpose of starting that?
134
00:09:14.227 --> 00:09:17.328
I love this question because it's my passion project.
135
00:09:17.528 --> 00:09:22.809
Basically, my business coach at the time, after being in the business so long, we were killing it with our $1.5 billion.
136
00:09:22.869 --> 00:09:25.050
He was like, I don't know what else I can teach you, dude.
137
00:09:25.150 --> 00:09:26.810
You're doing great.
138
00:09:26.850 --> 00:09:29.411
You've forgotten more about mortgage than I've ever known.
139
00:09:29.431 --> 00:09:32.552
He goes, what do you want to do, though, with your legacy moving forward?
140
00:09:32.572 --> 00:09:33.712
You know, I'll give back.
141
00:09:34.052 --> 00:09:40.717
And I'm like, I would love to create an environment that has all the resources for the industry.
142
00:09:40.978 --> 00:09:42.219
So you don't have to try to find them.
143
00:09:42.279 --> 00:09:47.903
I'd love to put them all in one place because believe it or not, Jeff, I almost quit the business because I didn't have those resources.
144
00:09:48.804 --> 00:09:54.248
And I have extremely good work ethic, which everything's that's that's your your fail safe.
145
00:09:54.288 --> 00:09:56.030
If you're a hard worker, you always make money.
146
00:09:56.070 --> 00:10:00.954
That's not always true because there's a point where you'll run out of time or energy.
147
00:10:01.154 --> 00:10:01.774
One of the two.
148
00:10:01.894 --> 00:10:02.175
And I.
149
00:10:02.835 --> 00:10:04.297
You know, race professional motocross.
150
00:10:04.337 --> 00:10:06.620
So I knew how to be a professional athlete.
151
00:10:06.660 --> 00:10:09.904
I knew that kind of work ethic and I had no problem with it.
152
00:10:09.924 --> 00:10:18.656
But the problem is I ran out of hours until somebody fortunately said, hey, have you gone to sales mastery, met Todd Duncan and all the people around that?
153
00:10:18.676 --> 00:10:19.597
I'm like, no.
154
00:10:19.997 --> 00:10:27.540
And once I went to the event, and I'm not, this isn't just some event, this is why I do the event, is it changed my entire outlook.
155
00:10:27.700 --> 00:10:31.042
It changed everything because I got to see what was possible.
156
00:10:31.382 --> 00:10:32.943
I got to be in a room with winners.
157
00:10:33.203 --> 00:10:34.563
I got to see what they're doing.
158
00:10:34.803 --> 00:10:38.125
I got to figure out their processes, their tech, their coaching.
159
00:10:38.185 --> 00:10:39.165
I went and got coaching.
160
00:10:39.385 --> 00:10:40.466
Everything changed for me.
161
00:10:40.526 --> 00:10:42.607
All of a sudden I went from struggling and not...
162
00:10:43.767 --> 00:10:49.549
decided whether I'm going to be in the business or not to, wow, there is so much opportunity to absolutely crush it.
163
00:10:49.569 --> 00:10:53.631
We make more, when you crush it, you make more than doctors and don't have to have a pager.
164
00:10:53.731 --> 00:10:57.392
I mean, it's an incredible, and you get to help the American dream of getting people in a home.
165
00:10:57.492 --> 00:11:01.894
It's a wonderful career, but you do have to be very smart about it.
166
00:11:02.134 --> 00:11:08.456
And that's why I created this is now it's going to, you're going to see at the event, we're going to release it, but we're going to have an ecosystem that will have
167
00:11:09.376 --> 00:11:10.337
I'm agnostic now.
168
00:11:10.397 --> 00:11:11.818
I don't work for any one company.
169
00:11:11.898 --> 00:11:15.500
So I have a list of coaches and leaders like you, Jeff.
170
00:11:15.840 --> 00:11:18.162
I'm going to have all the tech that they need.
171
00:11:18.542 --> 00:11:21.644
I'm not telling you which coach to use, but I'm going to introduce you to them.
172
00:11:22.024 --> 00:11:22.644
Pick one.
173
00:11:22.985 --> 00:11:23.825
See who talks to you.
174
00:11:24.185 --> 00:11:25.066
Hey, here's all the tech.
175
00:11:25.106 --> 00:11:27.768
I'm not going to tell you what tech you need or what you should use, but
176
00:11:28.448 --> 00:11:30.168
Use some of the tech to grow.
177
00:11:30.328 --> 00:11:39.371
We're going to have a community site where we can share best practices, where my vendor partners and coaches like you can give tips and ideas to help that community grow.
178
00:11:39.711 --> 00:11:44.832
So now it's going to be in one place, a place you can trust too, because a lot of people are like, who do I trust?
179
00:11:44.872 --> 00:11:45.592
Who do I hire?
180
00:11:45.952 --> 00:11:46.592
What do I use?
181
00:11:46.632 --> 00:11:47.433
What tech do I use?
182
00:11:47.773 --> 00:11:49.193
It's going to be in one place.
183
00:11:49.253 --> 00:11:50.893
It's going to be in our momentum builder collectives.
184
00:11:51.294 --> 00:11:55.174
And anyone that's going to be part of our community is going to lead the charge.
185
00:11:55.375 --> 00:11:56.415
Everyone else is not part of it.
186
00:11:56.435 --> 00:11:57.315
It's going to be left behind.
187
00:11:57.495 --> 00:12:01.796
All right, so I think that's a key difference when we're talking about events and learning and things like that.
188
00:12:01.816 --> 00:12:07.058
And to your point about the Sales Mastery event you went to years ago, I mean, it's a similar experience for me and other people I know.
189
00:12:07.799 --> 00:12:13.320
You get in the room, you get immersed for two or three days, whatever it is, and that's where real transformation can happen.
190
00:12:13.741 --> 00:12:18.702
It's difficult to have transformation happen on a 40-minute webinar or listening to a podcast.
191
00:12:18.882 --> 00:12:20.803
It can open the door and start to shift some things.
192
00:12:21.223 --> 00:12:27.171
But there's something that happens at a visceral level when you're with 500 or 1,000 other people in the same room.
193
00:12:27.311 --> 00:12:28.273
And so that's why it's important.
194
00:12:28.293 --> 00:12:31.557
If you haven't been to Momentum Builder, you're gonna have an opportunity at the end of this.
195
00:12:31.597 --> 00:12:35.863
But also, if it's been a while since you've been to any event, now's the time to get back in, right?
196
00:12:36.103 --> 00:12:37.545
You gotta keep the ax sharp.
197
00:12:37.845 --> 00:12:39.647
But what you said here is very important.
198
00:12:39.847 --> 00:12:42.490
This is what makes what you guys do different than other, quote, events.
199
00:12:42.911 --> 00:12:44.773
It's not just an event, one and done.
200
00:12:45.193 --> 00:12:56.886
It is this ongoing resource community of places, a place people can go, one-stop shop to get access to people, resources, tools, a community, right, where they can get answers to their questions.
201
00:12:57.326 --> 00:12:59.609
They don't have to wait for an event to come around once a year.
202
00:12:59.629 --> 00:12:59.849
Yeah.
203
00:13:00.269 --> 00:13:00.869
And I love you.
204
00:13:01.249 --> 00:13:01.970
You brought that up.
205
00:13:02.010 --> 00:13:07.451
I mean, it's so important to be in that room, that energy level.
206
00:13:07.892 --> 00:13:10.692
I mean, Jeff, you and I, I think we met at one of the events.
207
00:13:10.812 --> 00:13:14.013
You don't know who you're going to meet that's going to literally change my life.
208
00:13:14.093 --> 00:13:17.855
Some of my best friends in the industry and my mentors were at these events.
209
00:13:18.075 --> 00:13:20.716
And now I can't wait to see you and others.
210
00:13:20.816 --> 00:13:23.997
Like I told you, whatever I need to do, Jeff, you got to be at my event.
211
00:13:24.017 --> 00:13:24.917
I want to hang with you, buddy.
212
00:13:25.237 --> 00:13:26.317
Your friends will be there.
213
00:13:26.337 --> 00:13:27.598
Your mentors will be there.
214
00:13:27.818 --> 00:13:29.939
New friends, new mentors will be there.
215
00:13:30.499 --> 00:13:33.060
It has changed my entire, but the energy too.
216
00:13:33.740 --> 00:13:37.902
What's nice about our event, it isn't just a sit down behind the desk and take notes.
217
00:13:38.162 --> 00:13:39.483
It's high energy.
218
00:13:39.703 --> 00:13:40.903
It's high value.
219
00:13:41.103 --> 00:13:42.044
It's high fun.
220
00:13:42.544 --> 00:13:44.245
God knows we need some fun right now.
221
00:13:44.285 --> 00:13:45.565
And you know, we like to have fun.
222
00:13:45.705 --> 00:13:48.486
You know, we start off opening night with a giant party.
223
00:13:48.806 --> 00:13:52.428
We end the event with a giant party and a cornhole contest.
224
00:13:52.808 --> 00:13:53.968
We believe in networking.
225
00:13:54.008 --> 00:13:56.369
We believe in getting re-energized.
226
00:13:56.409 --> 00:13:59.410
How would you like to be re-energized for the industry?
227
00:14:00.290 --> 00:14:13.373
When you leave an event and you have even two new ideas, let alone maybe eight to 10 new ideas, you're actually excited because you have something new to work on, something new to share with your team, something new that's going to create business.
228
00:14:13.533 --> 00:14:16.294
It is exciting when you leave and you're pumped up.
229
00:14:16.694 --> 00:14:20.515
But like you said, what's cool is with the collective and this community, we're
230
00:14:20.655 --> 00:14:22.036
We're going to actually help you implement.
231
00:14:22.076 --> 00:14:28.398
We've all left with good intentions and then go back home and go back to our normal habits and putting out fires.
232
00:14:28.558 --> 00:14:29.178
I get it.
233
00:14:29.238 --> 00:14:30.299
That's our life.
234
00:14:30.319 --> 00:14:31.399
That's how we pay the bills.
235
00:14:31.539 --> 00:14:39.963
But to get true transformation, like you said, Jeff, very eloquently said, you need help in implementing.
236
00:14:40.043 --> 00:14:41.263
It's all about implementation.
237
00:14:41.283 --> 00:14:42.304
And we're going to help you with that.
238
00:14:42.564 --> 00:14:44.204
We're going to help you throughout the entire year.
239
00:14:44.284 --> 00:14:45.545
It's going to be phenomenal.
240
00:14:45.705 --> 00:14:46.405
Yeah, 100%.
241
00:14:46.786 --> 00:14:54.991
And yeah, I mean, look, if you, the other thing too that happens being in the room, and I know people who've been to an event can relate to this.
242
00:14:55.011 --> 00:14:59.154
I'm not sure if you've been to a momentum builder, but you should because you've got a serious lineup.
243
00:14:59.174 --> 00:15:00.175
We'll talk through in a second.
244
00:15:00.195 --> 00:15:00.375
Sick.
245
00:15:01.949 --> 00:15:07.174
But the other benefit of being around winners, like, you know, the rising tide lifts all boats, right?
246
00:15:07.234 --> 00:15:20.705
And so the other cool thing is you see in network and talk to other people winning, and all of a sudden this new paradigm opens for you where you've met these people, like, oh, it's a challenging market, but here's so-and-so over here doing 20 units a month.
247
00:15:20.966 --> 00:15:26.330
Here's this person over here doing 12 units, and you're at your three or four, and all you want to do is get to six.
248
00:15:26.791 --> 00:15:28.733
Well, all of a sudden that, you know, your whole,
249
00:15:29.353 --> 00:15:32.534
identity of what's possible for you is stretched.
250
00:15:32.754 --> 00:15:38.835
And I think that's one of the biggest benefits of being around these other people is it really opens up the idea of what's possible.
251
00:15:39.735 --> 00:15:46.556
So dude, that's why I love having you as a friend and you're such a blessing to the industry because you get it, you see that.
252
00:15:46.696 --> 00:15:54.838
And that was so eloquently put that, okay, maybe I'm not gonna be able to get to 20 or 40 like that person on stage, but hey, if I do just
253
00:15:55.078 --> 00:15:56.019
part of what they're doing.
254
00:15:56.039 --> 00:15:58.221
I can go from three to six and six to 12.
255
00:15:58.641 --> 00:15:59.702
That's your catalyst.
256
00:15:59.722 --> 00:16:02.164
That's your spark, you know, that's going to get you there.
257
00:16:02.505 --> 00:16:04.747
And what's really nice, Jeff, is it's real.
258
00:16:05.047 --> 00:16:06.608
All my speakers are just real.
259
00:16:06.648 --> 00:16:11.613
They're you and I, they're not untouchable gods that they're, they actually will hang out with you.
260
00:16:11.853 --> 00:16:14.515
They'll talk to you and they're going to share their secrets.
261
00:16:14.575 --> 00:16:16.157
They're literally not worried about you.
262
00:16:16.517 --> 00:16:19.920
Just like when I go on stage, like, why would you tell all your secrets, Don, shoot.
263
00:16:20.220 --> 00:16:20.921
I'm not worried.
264
00:16:21.081 --> 00:16:22.762
I'm not worried about you taking my market share.
265
00:16:22.802 --> 00:16:24.922
That's why I own my market share.
266
00:16:25.242 --> 00:16:27.903
And if I can help someone, then more power to you.
267
00:16:28.203 --> 00:16:29.483
And that's what they feel.
268
00:16:29.844 --> 00:16:40.687
And what's really cool too is I bring in a lot of outside speakers too to help with fresh perspective, fresh mindsets, fresh ideas, personal branding, health and wellness.
269
00:16:41.027 --> 00:16:45.508
We even have a wealth panel to start talking about how to build wealth because our industry sucks at it.
270
00:16:46.048 --> 00:16:50.534
We always get on the hamster wheel, make a lot of money, spend a lot of money, go make a lot of money, spend a lot of money.
271
00:16:50.574 --> 00:16:52.896
Now we're going to talk about how to create real freedom.
272
00:16:53.637 --> 00:17:03.810
This is a holistic approach that we're putting together at Momentum Builder to really change your mindset and help you be fulfilled personally and financially.
273
00:17:04.050 --> 00:17:05.672
I mean, that's what our goal really is.
274
00:17:05.970 --> 00:17:08.473
Let's talk about some of the speakers.
275
00:17:08.513 --> 00:17:09.213
You've got panels.
276
00:17:09.233 --> 00:17:14.018
There's too many to talk about all of them, but who are some of the standouts for you that you want to make sure you highlight?
277
00:17:14.318 --> 00:17:14.899
Okay.
278
00:17:15.139 --> 00:17:17.201
Opening night alone is going to be worth it.
279
00:17:17.241 --> 00:17:19.043
You're going to be super pumped.
280
00:17:19.363 --> 00:17:22.026
We don't start till 4.30 on opening night on Tuesday.
281
00:17:22.166 --> 00:17:24.688
Reason being, so you have all day to get into Dallas.
282
00:17:24.749 --> 00:17:29.974
We moved from Vegas to Dallas to get rid of the distractions for one, because I really want transformation.
283
00:17:29.994 --> 00:17:30.314
Yeah.
284
00:17:30.414 --> 00:17:31.414
Vegas, really tough.
285
00:17:31.474 --> 00:17:32.575
I'm sorry, too many distractions.
286
00:17:32.595 --> 00:17:35.076
You go to most of those events early in the morning, it's empty.
287
00:17:35.096 --> 00:17:37.256
And in the later afternoon, that's empty because they're at the pool.
288
00:17:37.596 --> 00:17:41.057
This is, this is focus time because this two days is going to change your life.
289
00:17:41.097 --> 00:17:43.518
And don't worry, we're going to have some fun and, and all that.
290
00:17:43.538 --> 00:17:45.499
So it's not just a complete grind at all.
291
00:17:45.859 --> 00:17:47.560
when you listen to speakers, you're going to be excited.
292
00:17:47.600 --> 00:17:53.384
So opening night, we have Brian Biro, who is the number one breakthrough speaker in the world.
293
00:17:53.584 --> 00:17:59.247
He's going to help you really pull back and figure out how to break through whatever level you're at.
294
00:17:59.267 --> 00:18:02.749
I don't care if you're a two producer or a 20-a-month producer.
295
00:18:02.989 --> 00:18:04.710
Everybody wants to get to that next level.
296
00:18:05.010 --> 00:18:08.232
He's going to help you peel back what's stopping you from breaking through.
297
00:18:08.252 --> 00:18:10.654
And he's going to do it in a very fun way.
298
00:18:10.674 --> 00:18:11.735
We have...
299
00:18:12.535 --> 00:18:13.055
with Coach Bill.
300
00:18:13.095 --> 00:18:14.096
Hard opening night.
301
00:18:14.296 --> 00:18:19.438
He is one of the masters in this industry for decades, sharing his perspective.
302
00:18:19.458 --> 00:18:20.678
And then we go to a great party.
303
00:18:21.098 --> 00:18:22.739
Next day we have Coach Michael Bird.
304
00:18:23.059 --> 00:18:24.380
You probably saw him last year.
305
00:18:24.440 --> 00:18:25.080
I brought him back.
306
00:18:25.200 --> 00:18:27.081
Because this dude is a rock star.
307
00:18:27.581 --> 00:18:32.323
He was a coach, but now he teaches people how to release their genius.
308
00:18:32.723 --> 00:18:35.465
and basically create their business as a business.
309
00:18:35.565 --> 00:18:37.706
Because remember, this isn't just a job.
310
00:18:37.746 --> 00:18:39.227
This isn't a salary job.
311
00:18:39.547 --> 00:18:42.188
You need to create it like a business, and he sparks it.
312
00:18:42.208 --> 00:18:45.090
And then right after him, Rory Baden, are you kidding me?
313
00:18:45.110 --> 00:18:46.511
I can't believe I have him on the stage.
314
00:18:46.871 --> 00:18:50.193
One of the number one brand builders in the world.
315
00:18:50.373 --> 00:18:52.074
This guy knows how to build brands.
316
00:18:52.574 --> 00:18:54.875
And I saw him on Neil Dinger's stage.
317
00:18:55.275 --> 00:18:57.056
I had three pages of notes from this guy.
318
00:18:57.417 --> 00:18:59.538
So that's why I was so excited to get him on our stage.
319
00:19:00.178 --> 00:19:01.579
Chris Welton, you know Chris.
320
00:19:02.179 --> 00:19:04.341
He's going to talk about how to overcome adversity.
321
00:19:04.702 --> 00:19:06.223
The guy was born with one arm.
322
00:19:06.463 --> 00:19:07.324
I mean, come on.
323
00:19:07.664 --> 00:19:07.784
Yeah.
324
00:19:07.804 --> 00:19:07.985
Right.
325
00:19:08.305 --> 00:19:09.066
But he crushes it.
326
00:19:09.326 --> 00:19:13.530
And he does like Ironmans and he does all these things you don't think someone could do.
327
00:19:14.491 --> 00:19:21.157
We have Neil Dengra, again, the master in our industry right now with personal branding to create more business.
328
00:19:21.277 --> 00:19:22.759
I have neuroscientists showing up.
329
00:19:22.959 --> 00:19:25.901
They're actually going to do, Jeff, they're going to do brain scans at the event.
330
00:19:26.022 --> 00:19:26.222
Really?
331
00:19:26.242 --> 00:19:26.342
Yeah.
332
00:19:26.622 --> 00:19:28.964
and figure out what works in your brain, what isn't working.
333
00:19:28.984 --> 00:19:30.445
That could be dangerous.
334
00:19:30.585 --> 00:19:31.626
Yeah, that's what I tell them.
335
00:19:31.726 --> 00:19:40.254
I go, I don't know, I'm gonna give away my joke that I'm gonna have the stage, but I'm a little afraid of them doing that with me because they might not find anything in there.
336
00:19:41.194 --> 00:19:42.055
Any signs of life?
337
00:19:42.796 --> 00:19:43.416
Yeah, yeah, like,
338
00:19:44.497 --> 00:19:44.977
Sorry, Don.
339
00:19:45.158 --> 00:19:46.178
Now we know what your problem is.
340
00:19:46.798 --> 00:19:51.601
But they're going to talk about how your brain can be more resilient and how to handle things like anxiety.
341
00:19:51.661 --> 00:19:54.363
And believe me, our industry has a lot of anxiety right now.
342
00:19:54.483 --> 00:19:57.225
There's a lot of inconsistencies in business right now.
343
00:19:57.585 --> 00:19:58.866
I mean, I can go on and on.
344
00:19:59.206 --> 00:20:02.688
You know the players, Kim Perry's and Josh Pitts.
345
00:20:02.828 --> 00:20:04.029
And it's powerful.
346
00:20:04.909 --> 00:20:05.349
Powerful.
347
00:20:05.369 --> 00:20:07.270
And then we have panels, really strong panels.
348
00:20:07.290 --> 00:20:16.155
Dave Savage is leading two amazing panels with rising stars, sharing very simple steps of how they're crushing the market over 100 million right now.
349
00:20:16.495 --> 00:20:17.615
It's going to be awesome.
350
00:20:17.815 --> 00:20:21.617
Well, I know there's a couple on there who I personally know I've actually done some work with.
351
00:20:22.458 --> 00:20:23.478
People like Brady Thomas.
352
00:20:23.979 --> 00:20:25.459
He's one of our rising stars.
353
00:20:25.559 --> 00:20:28.201
And what he's sharing, Jeff, you know him.
354
00:20:28.481 --> 00:20:30.322
What he shares, you're going to go, that's all he did?
355
00:20:31.260 --> 00:20:31.920
Very simple.
356
00:20:32.400 --> 00:20:32.580
True.
357
00:20:32.600 --> 00:20:33.300
But he is killing it.
358
00:20:33.380 --> 00:20:34.961
And he doesn't even live in his market.
359
00:20:35.201 --> 00:20:37.701
Most of the time, his market's in Oakland, California.
360
00:20:37.741 --> 00:20:41.462
He lives in Boston most of the time because his wife's a professor in Boston.
361
00:20:41.882 --> 00:20:44.123
And he does over $100 million in production.
362
00:20:44.663 --> 00:20:44.883
Yeah.
363
00:20:44.963 --> 00:20:46.083
And he's able to do that, right?
364
00:20:46.103 --> 00:20:48.544
Because of some shifts, very simple shifts he made in his business.
365
00:20:48.584 --> 00:20:50.664
But I'll just, I'll tease it out a little bit.
366
00:20:50.684 --> 00:20:58.826
At least, I don't know if he's talking about this, but I know part of it was how he approaches realtors and how he changed the dynamics of how he works together with them.
367
00:20:58.846 --> 00:21:00.426
So he stopped chasing and all that stuff.
368
00:21:00.846 --> 00:21:01.126
Yeah.
369
00:21:01.146 --> 00:21:04.067
So he became more of a partner and that grew his business 40%.
370
00:21:04.087 --> 00:21:05.407
So that, that alone.
371
00:21:05.427 --> 00:21:09.088
And then you have Abdel there, who the gorilla, who's going to be talking about AI, I'm sure.
372
00:21:09.108 --> 00:21:09.868
Right.
373
00:21:30.553 --> 00:21:51.903
percent this year wow really 178 and he's going to talk on that of how he's actually using ai not talking about how cool it will be and yet you should be using it he's actually using it and he's crushing it yeah he's built systems and processes that help streamline his overall efficiency which allows him to scale and do more volume without necessarily actually hiring less people to scale and do that volume so right
374
00:21:52.943 --> 00:21:53.883
All right, so let's do this.
375
00:21:53.923 --> 00:21:55.544
People are teased enough.
376
00:21:55.564 --> 00:21:56.084
They're curious.
377
00:21:56.104 --> 00:21:56.905
They want to know more.
378
00:21:56.925 --> 00:21:58.125
Give us the details.
379
00:21:58.165 --> 00:21:59.346
This is when in October?
380
00:21:59.586 --> 00:22:03.267
October 6th through the 8th in Dallas at a beautiful hotel.
381
00:22:03.307 --> 00:22:03.968
Badass hotel.
382
00:22:03.988 --> 00:22:04.808
You saw it.
383
00:22:04.868 --> 00:22:06.769
I mean, the ballroom's amazing.
384
00:22:06.869 --> 00:22:09.890
And what's really cool as I moved it there is because one of the most important places
385
00:22:09.970 --> 00:22:16.658
pieces that you have to understand by being at the event is the connections and the networking and the people you're going to meet.
386
00:22:16.839 --> 00:22:22.306
And I moved it to this location because in Vegas, when the event was done, everybody disperses.
387
00:22:22.346 --> 00:22:25.590
You never get to go and meet people or see your friends, even.
388
00:22:25.610 --> 00:22:27.112
You're like, oh, where the hell did Jeff go?
389
00:22:27.132 --> 00:22:27.232
Jeff,
390
00:22:27.492 --> 00:22:30.673
Well, you're off at a concert or you're with somebody else.
391
00:22:30.693 --> 00:22:38.456
But so this has one central area, one giant 100 foot long bar with seating all around it.
392
00:22:38.576 --> 00:22:41.797
And whether you drink or not, you know where your friends are going to be.
393
00:22:41.937 --> 00:22:48.820
You know, the leaders are going to be besides the networking party at the opening night, besides networking party on a terrace outside outside.
394
00:22:49.453 --> 00:22:53.596
it's going to be game changing for you because you're going to be pumped up and you're going to have new friends.
395
00:22:53.616 --> 00:22:55.317
They're going to help you hold you accountable.
396
00:22:55.657 --> 00:22:58.259
And like you said, rising tides lifts all ships.
397
00:22:58.359 --> 00:22:59.941
And that's, that's what it's all about.
398
00:23:00.021 --> 00:23:04.244
So October 6th through the 8th in Dallas, but you need, I, I,
399
00:23:04.864 --> 00:23:05.904
You just need to pull the trigger.
400
00:23:05.924 --> 00:23:08.485
The problem is, is a lot of people, a lot of you will think about it.
401
00:23:08.805 --> 00:23:14.027
But once you actually purchase your ticket, and this is not a sales pitch, I want the right people in the room.
402
00:23:14.367 --> 00:23:16.668
But because you want to grow, I want you there.
403
00:23:16.808 --> 00:23:17.828
Because this is the right.
404
00:23:17.949 --> 00:23:21.010
You'll see that the group that shows up at our event, you've seen it, Jeff.
405
00:23:21.110 --> 00:23:21.910
They show up on time.
406
00:23:22.390 --> 00:23:25.773
They come back on time and they stay the whole time because it's all value.
407
00:23:25.993 --> 00:23:27.714
Every single speaker and panel adds value.
408
00:23:27.734 --> 00:23:28.695
You don't want to miss anything.
409
00:23:29.055 --> 00:23:35.701
So I want you to pull the trigger so that as soon as you do, you're going to go, all right, I'm going to do something to make change.
410
00:23:35.821 --> 00:23:37.002
I'm going to do something to grow.
411
00:23:37.042 --> 00:23:42.186
I'm going to do something to improve my life for me and my family, whether it's for you or not.
412
00:23:42.466 --> 00:23:43.407
So it's not a cost.
413
00:23:43.447 --> 00:23:46.650
It's an investment and a very small investment to change your life.
414
00:23:47.030 --> 00:23:51.434
Oh my gosh, it's like one third of one loan, a commission on one loan or something like that.
415
00:23:51.474 --> 00:23:53.255
It's absolutely completely reasonable.
416
00:23:53.476 --> 00:24:05.125
So October 6th through the 8th in Dallas, we're gonna link the website in the show notes, but I'm reading some of the success stories such as income is up 300%, doubled my sales, I'm working less than 25 hours a week now, right?
417
00:24:05.166 --> 00:24:06.206
Advanced to the next level.
418
00:24:07.167 --> 00:24:10.490
The thing I want to kind of double tap on is it's going to be October, right?
419
00:24:10.830 --> 00:24:12.852
And before you know it, January is going to be here.
420
00:24:13.052 --> 00:24:13.712
Oh, good point.
421
00:24:13.893 --> 00:24:16.855
The question is, how ready are you for 2027?
422
00:24:17.035 --> 00:24:20.578
Because you know this, and I'm sure you've preached this to your people in the past.
423
00:24:20.978 --> 00:24:30.326
What you do starting October 1st, I'll give you that leeway, I say today, but October 1st, what you do from that moment on through Q4, build your Q1 pipeline.
424
00:24:30.666 --> 00:24:34.229
And so if you're going to show up flat footed in January, you're going to already be behind.
425
00:24:34.289 --> 00:24:36.471
So you better have the right process and system in place.
426
00:24:36.752 --> 00:24:40.715
Most importantly, the right mindset if you're going to show up to win and crush it in 2027.
427
00:24:40.735 --> 00:24:43.638
So that's my great leader, Jeff.
428
00:24:43.718 --> 00:24:53.207
That's that's so important because, you know, we've managed people for for years and and in most cases in our industry, January, February, March suck.
429
00:24:53.667 --> 00:24:54.767
That's a technical term.
430
00:24:55.388 --> 00:24:59.189
But that's only because they didn't do their work during the holidays.
431
00:24:59.269 --> 00:25:04.971
I tell my team, some of my best months are November, December, because my competition's distracted.
432
00:25:05.191 --> 00:25:07.251
They're dealing with the holidays.
433
00:25:07.592 --> 00:25:13.413
And then I start the year off on fire, which then puts your mindset in the right place that I'm going to have one of my best years ever.
434
00:25:13.734 --> 00:25:14.874
But if you start off behind
435
00:25:15.274 --> 00:25:18.256
then you're going to stay behind and you're going to actually just wash the year away.
436
00:25:18.276 --> 00:25:20.457
You're going to go, oh, my year sucks, another bad year.
437
00:25:20.777 --> 00:25:22.278
Do not, no more excuses.
438
00:25:22.638 --> 00:25:24.259
You need reasons, not excuses.
439
00:25:24.599 --> 00:25:27.041
This is the reason to change your life today.
440
00:25:27.061 --> 00:25:33.204
And I guarantee it, I always tell people, I'll give you more money back if you don't get value out of it, but I've never had to pay it ever.
441
00:25:33.604 --> 00:25:34.165
Absolutely.
442
00:25:34.565 --> 00:25:36.826
Yeah, we worked so hard at this event.
443
00:25:36.966 --> 00:25:43.130
I mean, I'm pouring 16 hour days to make sure that this event is the best they've ever been at.
444
00:25:43.230 --> 00:25:44.711
It's going to be off the charts.
445
00:25:44.731 --> 00:25:44.971
Yeah.
446
00:25:45.092 --> 00:25:47.853
Well, I've been to every event there is out there, both in and out of mortgage.
447
00:25:48.073 --> 00:25:52.193
As you know, I've been in this kind of personal development industry for over 30 years.
448
00:25:52.373 --> 00:25:57.994
And so I've been to all kinds of, I mean, I got to see Jim Rohn back when he was alive and spent time with Robbins and all that stuff.
449
00:25:58.014 --> 00:26:00.135
But yeah, so, and that's why I'm happy.
450
00:26:00.415 --> 00:26:03.195
I don't usually bring a lot of people on the podcast and promote them.
451
00:26:03.575 --> 00:26:04.956
You're one of the few that I've done that.
452
00:26:04.976 --> 00:26:08.516
And that's because I went last year and I felt so strongly about it.
453
00:26:08.596 --> 00:26:10.837
So that's, you know, that means a lot to me, Jeff.
454
00:26:10.937 --> 00:26:11.277
Thank you.
455
00:26:11.297 --> 00:26:11.497
Yeah.
456
00:26:11.837 --> 00:26:13.398
That means a lot because that's my passion.
457
00:26:13.598 --> 00:26:15.900
It is really to provide value, not to sell tickets.
458
00:26:16.320 --> 00:26:18.681
It's really, this is my give back to the industry.
459
00:26:19.042 --> 00:26:23.524
I love the industry and I want to make it easier for everybody because it's a tough industry.
460
00:26:23.584 --> 00:26:27.747
Sales is one of the toughest jobs in the world, but that's why we get paid what we get paid.
461
00:26:28.107 --> 00:26:29.448
We get paid more than a doctor.
462
00:26:29.748 --> 00:26:34.091
So you have to put the time, effort, but you have to do it smart and we're going to help you do it smart.
463
00:26:34.451 --> 00:26:35.972
And that way you don't just get burned out.
464
00:26:36.112 --> 00:26:40.713
Don't make a mistake that I did and so many others did when we were originating is you're trying to figure it out all on your own.
465
00:26:41.114 --> 00:26:47.315
You gotta get around the right people who've been there before you and learn from them, draft them, so to speak, right?
466
00:26:47.756 --> 00:26:48.636
And follow their lead.

00:26:48.696 --> 00:26:51.877

476
00:27:08.556 --> 00:27:10.579
So, Don, I'm looking forward to this year.
477
00:27:10.800 --> 00:27:11.000
Yeah.
478
00:27:11.080 --> 00:27:12.781
I am pumped up.
479
00:27:13.221 --> 00:27:14.462
I'm so excited about this year.
480
00:27:14.502 --> 00:27:16.502
My lineup is full.
481
00:27:16.843 --> 00:27:18.023
It's going to be amazing.
482
00:27:18.103 --> 00:27:20.404
And I can't wait to see the transformations.
483
00:27:20.604 --> 00:27:22.465
I get to talk to, you'll see.
484
00:27:22.645 --> 00:27:24.346
I don't just get on the stage and leave.
485
00:27:24.366 --> 00:27:24.766
You know me.
486
00:27:24.846 --> 00:27:26.607
I'll be around talking and meeting people.
487
00:27:27.047 --> 00:27:33.350
I get to hear stories of how people improved since last year and how excited they are for this year.
488
00:27:33.770 --> 00:27:36.191
How about being excited about the mortgage industry?
489
00:27:36.251 --> 00:27:39.973
I know right now it seems like it's just nothing but a kick in the you know what.
490
00:27:41.073 --> 00:27:42.533
there's a lot of people excited about it.
491
00:27:42.593 --> 00:27:49.135
So let's make sure our group that's at Momentum Builder Live, October 6th or the 8th, are the ones that are excited about the industry and leading the charge.
492
00:27:49.175 --> 00:27:49.695
That's my goal.
493
00:27:49.715 --> 00:27:49.995
Right on.
494
00:27:50.536 --> 00:27:51.076
All right, my man.
495
00:27:51.416 --> 00:27:52.636

So I can report back to Don and say, hey, man, we got some people to show up because of this podcast.
505
00:28:10.501 --> 00:28:11.802
Oh, and grab your tickets now.
506
00:28:11.862 --> 00:28:13.584
Prices continue to go up.
507
00:28:13.644 --> 00:28:16.346
And VIPs are almost sold out, which I'm really excited about.
508
00:28:16.386 --> 00:28:17.807
There's only a few VIPs left.
509
00:28:17.847 --> 00:28:18.788
So you want to grab those.
510
00:28:18.808 --> 00:28:19.829
You want to be in that room.

You get to be in the front.
512
00:28:21.230 --> 00:28:22.531
You get to be with other VIPs.

It's going to be really cool.
515
00:28:26.995 --> 00:28:27.195
Yeah.
516
00:28:27.275 --> 00:28:28.617
Well, all right, listeners, you know what to do.
517
00:28:28.637 --> 00:28:29.357
Go ahead and register.
518
00:28:29.417 --> 00:28:32.020
I looked forward to seeing you in Dallas.
519
00:28:32.060 --> 00:28:33.341
Don, thank you as always.
520
00:28:33.921 --> 00:28:34.802
And we'll see you soon.
521
00:28:35.062 --> 00:28:35.322
All right.
522
00:28:35.382 --> 00:28:36.443
Thanks for the opportunity, buddy.
523
00:28:36.503 --> 00:28:37.544
And we'll see you in Dallas.
524
00:28:37.764 --> 00:28:38.245
That's right.
525
00:28:38.365 --> 00:28:38.745
You bet.
526
00:28:39.026 --> 00:28:39.346
Bye-bye.
1
00:00:00.051 --> 00:00:02.852
What if the market isn't the thing holding your business back?
2
00:00:03.192 --> 00:00:14.035
For the last few years, mortgage professionals have been waiting, waiting for rates to come down, for inventory to improve, for the market to change, waiting for things to finally feel normal again.
3
00:00:14.375 --> 00:00:16.535
But what if this is the new normal?
4
00:00:16.895 --> 00:00:23.717
And what if the people who win the next market cycle are the ones actually building while everyone else is pulling back?
5
00:00:24.236 --> 00:00:25.656
You're listening to Mortgage Marketing Radio.
6
00:00:25.936 --> 00:00:34.179
My name is Jeff Zimfer, and I help mortgage loan originators grow production, build stronger referral relationships, and create a business that stands out in today's market.
7
00:00:34.279 --> 00:00:36.239
Today on the show, we're asking a critical question.
8
00:00:36.379 --> 00:00:42.841
How do you stop surviving this market and start using it to build momentum for what comes next?
9
00:00:42.961 --> 00:00:48.523
To help us answer that, I'm joined by Don Getling, mortgage industry veteran and founder of Momentum Builder.
10
00:00:48.863 --> 00:00:54.364
Don spent nearly four decades in this business as an originator, leader, coach, and community builder.
11
00:00:54.604 --> 00:00:56.305
In this episode, you'll learn three things.
12
00:00:56.665 --> 00:01:00.926
Number one, why pulling back in a difficult market may be the exact opposite of what you should be doing.
13
00:01:01.286 --> 00:01:07.008
Number two, how getting around other high-performing people can completely reset what you believe is possible for your business.
14
00:01:07.608 --> 00:01:14.950
And number three, why what you do in the final months of this year could determine how strong you start in 2027.
15
00:01:15.290 --> 00:01:25.633
Plus, Don will give us a look inside this year's Momentum Builder live event in Dallas, talking through some of the strategies, speakers, and tech, like AI and other things that are going to be designed
16
00:01:25.873 --> 00:01:38.560
Plus, Don gives us a look inside this year's Momentum Builder live event in Dallas, including the strategy, speakers, technology, AI, and relationships designed to help you turn ideas into actual implementation.
17
00:01:40.121 --> 00:01:41.681
I've been to the Momentum Builder event.
18
00:01:41.842 --> 00:01:42.822
It is a one of a kind.
19
00:01:43.202 --> 00:01:51.887
And if you're in a place where in your head you're feeling a little bit stuck, a little bit funky, a little bit challenged by some of the headwinds that are happening in the market right now,
20
00:01:52.227 --> 00:02:01.692
You owe it to yourself to get around the right people in the right room with the right mindset and strategies to help you go from just surviving to thriving.
21
00:02:02.032 --> 00:02:05.374
And the Momentum Builder live event in Dallas is the place where you can do that.
22
00:02:05.834 --> 00:02:09.116
The link is in the show notes for you to check out more and register today.
23
00:02:09.336 --> 00:02:13.158
And I encourage you to stay tuned and listen into this entire episode.
24
00:02:13.358 --> 00:02:16.480
And I encourage you to stay tuned and listen to this entire episode.
25
00:02:16.700 --> 00:02:20.682
So if you're ready to build your own momentum, stick around for this episode of Mortgage Marketing Radio.
26
00:02:31.349 --> 00:02:31.651
Hey!
27
00:02:41.021 --> 00:02:42.182
Don, welcome to the show.
28
00:02:42.763 --> 00:02:43.963
I'm stoked to be here, Jeff.
29
00:02:43.983 --> 00:02:44.844
Thanks for having me, buddy.
30
00:02:45.164 --> 00:02:48.667
It's September 10th, we're recording this, so you're listening to this soon after that.
31
00:02:49.127 --> 00:02:54.551
And I wanna talk about, because in a few minutes, we're gonna be talking about your upcoming event, Momentum Builder, in October.
32
00:02:54.972 --> 00:02:59.455
I was at the Momentum Builder last year, I believe it was, and it's a great event.
33
00:02:59.475 --> 00:03:07.381
There's some reasons why you wanna listen, stay for that, because it's fresh, it's different, it's not the same old, same old mortgage event, but we'll talk about that in a moment.
34
00:03:07.761 --> 00:03:14.366
I want to start with what a lot of people probably aren't aware of with you, I'm going to guess, is that, well, first of all, you've been around a long time, okay?
35
00:03:14.587 --> 00:03:15.627
Yeah, almost 40 years.
36
00:03:15.808 --> 00:03:16.989
I started when I was very young.
37
00:03:17.389 --> 00:03:17.829
Yeah, yeah.
38
00:03:17.849 --> 00:03:18.850
You can tell by my young looks.
39
00:03:19.410 --> 00:03:25.956
Yeah, almost 40 years, but you also have built over your career a very successful origination business, right?
40
00:03:25.976 --> 00:03:27.817
Not only personally, but also you as a leader.
41
00:03:28.198 --> 00:03:29.539
I'm reading here on the website.
42
00:03:29.979 --> 00:03:45.277
kind of the origins of Momentum Builder, and I want you to unpack this a little bit, but what I'm seeing here that I didn't know by the way, so I wanted to bring this to light, is that from starting as an originator to a regional leader, right, where you went on to oversee nine offices, 163 employees, and 1.5 billion in volume.
43
00:03:48.901 --> 00:04:05.327
Why I want to really double tap on that is because you've seen a lot, you've been around a long time, but you're also, the thing I like about you, first of all, you're a guy who's my age, so whatever that means, but you're also still very, you're still very, let's just say over 50, if that's correct.
44
00:04:05.805 --> 00:04:07.627
Yes, you're safe on that one.
45
00:04:07.907 --> 00:04:08.508
All right, cool.
46
00:04:08.628 --> 00:04:09.750
I've had a little bit of margin.
47
00:04:09.970 --> 00:04:13.994
So, but you're also still willing to adapt, right?
48
00:04:14.114 --> 00:04:18.099
And pivot and learn new skills and not be kind of stuck in the old ways.
49
00:04:18.119 --> 00:04:21.203
And I think that's what I love about what you guys are doing with the Momentum Builder community.
50
00:04:21.683 --> 00:04:22.884
But tell me this.
51
00:04:23.729 --> 00:04:25.350
We were talking about this before we hit record.
52
00:04:25.531 --> 00:04:26.651
We're in this challenging market.
53
00:04:26.671 --> 00:04:29.534
It was an interesting news day today for mortgage rates and all that.
54
00:04:29.794 --> 00:04:34.058
There's a lot of headwinds that we've been facing in this industry for some years running now.
55
00:04:34.378 --> 00:04:39.922
What's, I mean, put yourself in the chair of you're overseeing your region, you're coaching LOs right now.
56
00:04:40.023 --> 00:04:44.586
Like, what is the, what's the headline you're telling them as we head into fall of 2026?
57
00:04:44.606 --> 00:04:44.726
Yeah.
58
00:04:45.507 --> 00:05:03.753
And I appreciate you asking that, Jeff, because it's so easy right now with the challenges of the market to just want to survive, to just buckle, you know, put your head in the sand and just wait for the market to get better, for the rates to go down, for it to get back to normal, which what is this is the new normal.
59
00:05:04.593 --> 00:05:08.435
But I always tell my team, I go, how's that worked out for you in the last four years?
60
00:05:08.755 --> 00:05:10.236
Waiting for something to happen.
61
00:05:10.576 --> 00:05:30.026
On the other hand, because of momentum building and all the people in my podcast like you do, I get to interview a lot of producers and leaders finding out what's really working and what isn't working and what the difference between those that have pivoted and adjusted to this market are absolutely using as an opportunity.
62
00:05:30.366 --> 00:05:32.687
So a lot of times these downturns like...
63
00:05:33.167 --> 00:05:38.530
You know, honestly, if you look at September 10th, you're going to see that it was a horrible day in the bond market.
64
00:05:38.691 --> 00:05:42.073
So you're going to think what I'm going to see is people are going to leave the market.
65
00:05:42.433 --> 00:05:43.534
More of our competitors leaving.
66
00:05:43.914 --> 00:05:46.516
A lot of people are going to basically pull back.
67
00:05:46.976 --> 00:05:48.097
This is when you lean in.
68
00:05:48.277 --> 00:05:51.039
This is when you go grab their freaking market share.
69
00:05:51.399 --> 00:05:58.884
And I mean that passionately because there are, I interviewed plenty of people that are doing a hundred million plus 60 million, 80 million on a regular basis.
70
00:05:59.424 --> 00:06:02.605
But their mind shift is, it's all about mindset.
71
00:06:02.985 --> 00:06:10.928
They have changed the game and they believe in leaning in and being very specific of what they want and not just waiting for the market to get better.
72
00:06:10.988 --> 00:06:14.669
There's not enough market share out there, but there's plenty for you if you lean in.
73
00:06:15.009 --> 00:06:19.330
There's just, we don't have enough transactions for everybody to really flourish.
74
00:06:19.710 --> 00:06:23.792
But there's plenty of professionals that are flourishing right now.
75
00:06:23.932 --> 00:06:24.992
Well, it's interesting you say that.
76
00:06:25.907 --> 00:06:28.028
I guess it's a matter of like, what do you really want, right?
77
00:06:28.048 --> 00:06:30.069
Some people are happy closing three or four loans a month.
78
00:06:30.109 --> 00:06:32.210
And if that's what you want, okay.
79
00:06:33.310 --> 00:06:33.810
But are they?
80
00:06:34.991 --> 00:06:35.751
I don't know, right?
81
00:06:35.771 --> 00:06:40.273
I know there's a couple guys in Newport Beach that are closing four loans a month, and they're pretty happy.
82
00:06:41.378 --> 00:06:42.338
Well, there you go.
83
00:06:42.358 --> 00:06:44.519
That's when they're $2.5 million plus loans.
84
00:06:45.179 --> 00:06:46.099
Right, exactly.
85
00:06:46.159 --> 00:06:48.760
And they've been doing it for 30 years, you know, and they're like, I'm good, man.
86
00:06:48.900 --> 00:07:03.284
But wherever you're at listening to this, I think that's one of the reasons why you need to get around other people like your communities, because it brings you perspective, a different mindset, different framing around, like you just said, okay, so we had some tough news with the bond market.
87
00:07:03.624 --> 00:07:05.085
What is, how does Don see that?
88
00:07:05.125 --> 00:07:07.705
Don doesn't see that as, oh my God, bad news.
89
00:07:07.725 --> 00:07:09.066
Like this market sucks.
90
00:07:09.086 --> 00:07:10.066
I'm going to go home.
91
00:07:10.886 --> 00:07:16.871
Don sees that as opportunity to go grab market share because he knows the average LO is pulling back.
92
00:07:17.211 --> 00:07:17.492
Right.
93
00:07:17.652 --> 00:07:17.852
Right.
94
00:07:18.192 --> 00:07:24.277
Now, it's it's really important that the perspective and I don't want to you know, I'm not going to make light of that.
95
00:07:24.397 --> 00:07:25.198
There's challenges.
96
00:07:25.278 --> 00:07:28.961
I'm not going to make light that a rough day, a quarter percent, you know, rate day.
97
00:07:29.141 --> 00:07:31.062
you know, is not a challenge.
98
00:07:31.422 --> 00:07:34.044
But remember that you don't have any control over the rates.
99
00:07:34.364 --> 00:07:37.606
Every LO out there is dealing with the exact same market.
100
00:07:37.886 --> 00:07:41.709
No one's got some special secret sauce of like, well, it's okay.
101
00:07:41.729 --> 00:07:43.510
I got lower rates here in my back pocket.
102
00:07:43.810 --> 00:07:45.411
No, we're all dealing with the same thing.
103
00:07:45.491 --> 00:07:47.552
It's just how you deal with it makes a difference.
104
00:07:47.572 --> 00:07:53.556
And that's why I'm very fortunate because I get to talk to leaders that are figuring out, producers that are figuring out,
105
00:07:54.156 --> 00:07:57.678
vendor partners that are helping people create their own business and so forth.
106
00:07:57.778 --> 00:08:04.542
There are ways that you can treat this as an opportunity, an opportunity to go grab that market share.
107
00:08:04.582 --> 00:08:09.705
And even those that are waiting for the market to get better and the rates to go down, are you going to be prepared for that?
108
00:08:10.146 --> 00:08:11.406
Are you really going to be prepared?
109
00:08:11.427 --> 00:08:14.268
You're going to try to relaunch your entire business once it picks up.
110
00:08:14.608 --> 00:08:16.309
What if you already own that market share?
111
00:08:16.650 --> 00:08:17.930
You're going to even crush it more.
112
00:08:17.950 --> 00:08:21.032
You're going to 10x your business while everybody's trying to 2x.
113
00:08:21.413 --> 00:08:23.674
Why don't you prepare and 10x your business?
114
00:08:23.914 --> 00:08:24.094
Yeah.
115
00:08:24.114 --> 00:08:28.215
So the message is, if you're in this game for the long haul, don't sit on the sidelines.
116
00:08:28.275 --> 00:08:28.795
Don't wait.
117
00:08:28.835 --> 00:08:29.735
Get off the stands.
118
00:08:29.775 --> 00:08:31.376
Get into the game and build.
119
00:08:31.656 --> 00:08:32.136
Absolutely.
120
00:08:32.436 --> 00:08:32.776
Absolutely.
121
00:08:33.156 --> 00:08:37.817
I mean, you and I both know the negative part is rates are going to hit 7%.
122
00:08:38.177 --> 00:08:40.958
Me, I'm like, I got a lot of refis coming in the future.
123
00:08:41.158 --> 00:08:41.658
Think about it.
124
00:08:41.958 --> 00:08:53.581
This is creating your next refi wave, which is our gravy, our extra money where you can really within two or three months make more than you made the entire year last year when the rates come back down.
125
00:08:53.681 --> 00:08:53.761
And
126
00:08:53.821 --> 00:08:54.801
They will eventually.
127
00:08:54.921 --> 00:08:55.942
I'm sorry, they always do.
128
00:08:56.222 --> 00:08:58.662
They just haven't for an extended period of time.
129
00:08:58.702 --> 00:08:59.923
I get it, but they will.
130
00:09:00.183 --> 00:09:04.804
So this is just creating your next refi boom, but you better be in contact with your clients.
131
00:09:05.084 --> 00:09:07.105
Otherwise, no one else is going to grab those.
132
00:09:07.385 --> 00:09:11.166
All right, so take me back to 2018 when you started Momentum Builder.
133
00:09:11.246 --> 00:09:13.267
What was the purpose of starting that?
134
00:09:14.227 --> 00:09:17.328
I love this question because it's my passion project.
135
00:09:17.528 --> 00:09:22.809
Basically, my business coach at the time, after being in the business so long, we were killing it with our $1.5 billion.
136
00:09:22.869 --> 00:09:25.050
He was like, I don't know what else I can teach you, dude.
137
00:09:25.150 --> 00:09:26.810
You're doing great.
138
00:09:26.850 --> 00:09:29.411
You've forgotten more about mortgage than I've ever known.
139
00:09:29.431 --> 00:09:32.552
He goes, what do you want to do, though, with your legacy moving forward?
140
00:09:32.572 --> 00:09:33.712
You know, I'll give back.
141
00:09:34.052 --> 00:09:40.717
And I'm like, I would love to create an environment that has all the resources for the industry.
142
00:09:40.978 --> 00:09:42.219
So you don't have to try to find them.
143
00:09:42.279 --> 00:09:47.903
I'd love to put them all in one place because believe it or not, Jeff, I almost quit the business because I didn't have those resources.
144
00:09:48.804 --> 00:09:54.248
And I have extremely good work ethic, which everything's that's that's your your fail safe.
145
00:09:54.288 --> 00:09:56.030
If you're a hard worker, you always make money.
146
00:09:56.070 --> 00:10:00.954
That's not always true because there's a point where you'll run out of time or energy.
147
00:10:01.154 --> 00:10:01.774
One of the two.
148
00:10:01.894 --> 00:10:02.175
And I.
149
00:10:02.835 --> 00:10:04.297
You know, race professional motocross.
150
00:10:04.337 --> 00:10:06.620
So I knew how to be a professional athlete.
151
00:10:06.660 --> 00:10:09.904
I knew that kind of work ethic and I had no problem with it.
152
00:10:09.924 --> 00:10:18.656
But the problem is I ran out of hours until somebody fortunately said, hey, have you gone to sales mastery, met Todd Duncan and all the people around that?
153
00:10:18.676 --> 00:10:19.597
I'm like, no.
154
00:10:19.997 --> 00:10:27.540
And once I went to the event, and I'm not, this isn't just some event, this is why I do the event, is it changed my entire outlook.
155
00:10:27.700 --> 00:10:31.042
It changed everything because I got to see what was possible.
156
00:10:31.382 --> 00:10:32.943
I got to be in a room with winners.
157
00:10:33.203 --> 00:10:34.563
I got to see what they're doing.
158
00:10:34.803 --> 00:10:38.125
I got to figure out their processes, their tech, their coaching.
159
00:10:38.185 --> 00:10:39.165
I went and got coaching.
160
00:10:39.385 --> 00:10:40.466
Everything changed for me.
161
00:10:40.526 --> 00:10:42.607
All of a sudden I went from struggling and not...
162
00:10:43.767 --> 00:10:49.549
decided whether I'm going to be in the business or not to, wow, there is so much opportunity to absolutely crush it.
163
00:10:49.569 --> 00:10:53.631
We make more, when you crush it, you make more than doctors and don't have to have a pager.
164
00:10:53.731 --> 00:10:57.392
I mean, it's an incredible, and you get to help the American dream of getting people in a home.
165
00:10:57.492 --> 00:11:01.894
It's a wonderful career, but you do have to be very smart about it.
166
00:11:02.134 --> 00:11:08.456
And that's why I created this is now it's going to, you're going to see at the event, we're going to release it, but we're going to have an ecosystem that will have
167
00:11:09.376 --> 00:11:10.337
I'm agnostic now.
168
00:11:10.397 --> 00:11:11.818
I don't work for any one company.
169
00:11:11.898 --> 00:11:15.500
So I have a list of coaches and leaders like you, Jeff.
170
00:11:15.840 --> 00:11:18.162
I'm going to have all the tech that they need.
171
00:11:18.542 --> 00:11:21.644
I'm not telling you which coach to use, but I'm going to introduce you to them.
172
00:11:22.024 --> 00:11:22.644
Pick one.
173
00:11:22.985 --> 00:11:23.825
See who talks to you.
174
00:11:24.185 --> 00:11:25.066
Hey, here's all the tech.
175
00:11:25.106 --> 00:11:27.768
I'm not going to tell you what tech you need or what you should use, but
176
00:11:28.448 --> 00:11:30.168
Use some of the tech to grow.
177
00:11:30.328 --> 00:11:39.371
We're going to have a community site where we can share best practices, where my vendor partners and coaches like you can give tips and ideas to help that community grow.
178
00:11:39.711 --> 00:11:44.832
So now it's going to be in one place, a place you can trust too, because a lot of people are like, who do I trust?
179
00:11:44.872 --> 00:11:45.592
Who do I hire?
180
00:11:45.952 --> 00:11:46.592
What do I use?
181
00:11:46.632 --> 00:11:47.433
What tech do I use?
182
00:11:47.773 --> 00:11:49.193
It's going to be in one place.
183
00:11:49.253 --> 00:11:50.893
It's going to be in our momentum builder collectives.
184
00:11:51.294 --> 00:11:55.174
And anyone that's going to be part of our community is going to lead the charge.
185
00:11:55.375 --> 00:11:56.415
Everyone else is not part of it.
186
00:11:56.435 --> 00:11:57.315
It's going to be left behind.
187
00:11:57.495 --> 00:12:01.796
All right, so I think that's a key difference when we're talking about events and learning and things like that.
188
00:12:01.816 --> 00:12:07.058
And to your point about the Sales Mastery event you went to years ago, I mean, it's a similar experience for me and other people I know.
189
00:12:07.799 --> 00:12:13.320
You get in the room, you get immersed for two or three days, whatever it is, and that's where real transformation can happen.
190
00:12:13.741 --> 00:12:18.702
It's difficult to have transformation happen on a 40-minute webinar or listening to a podcast.
191
00:12:18.882 --> 00:12:20.803
It can open the door and start to shift some things.
192
00:12:21.223 --> 00:12:27.171
But there's something that happens at a visceral level when you're with 500 or 1,000 other people in the same room.
193
00:12:27.311 --> 00:12:28.273
And so that's why it's important.
194
00:12:28.293 --> 00:12:31.557
If you haven't been to Momentum Builder, you're gonna have an opportunity at the end of this.
195
00:12:31.597 --> 00:12:35.863
But also, if it's been a while since you've been to any event, now's the time to get back in, right?
196
00:12:36.103 --> 00:12:37.545
You gotta keep the ax sharp.
197
00:12:37.845 --> 00:12:39.647
But what you said here is very important.
198
00:12:39.847 --> 00:12:42.490
This is what makes what you guys do different than other, quote, events.
199
00:12:42.911 --> 00:12:44.773
It's not just an event, one and done.
200
00:12:45.193 --> 00:12:56.886
It is this ongoing resource community of places, a place people can go, one-stop shop to get access to people, resources, tools, a community, right, where they can get answers to their questions.
201
00:12:57.326 --> 00:12:59.609
They don't have to wait for an event to come around once a year.
202
00:12:59.629 --> 00:12:59.849
Yeah.
203
00:13:00.269 --> 00:13:00.869
And I love you.
204
00:13:01.249 --> 00:13:01.970
You brought that up.
205
00:13:02.010 --> 00:13:07.451
I mean, it's so important to be in that room, that energy level.
206
00:13:07.892 --> 00:13:10.692
I mean, Jeff, you and I, I think we met at one of the events.
207
00:13:10.812 --> 00:13:14.013
You don't know who you're going to meet that's going to literally change my life.
208
00:13:14.093 --> 00:13:17.855
Some of my best friends in the industry and my mentors were at these events.
209
00:13:18.075 --> 00:13:20.716
And now I can't wait to see you and others.
210
00:13:20.816 --> 00:13:23.997
Like I told you, whatever I need to do, Jeff, you got to be at my event.
211
00:13:24.017 --> 00:13:24.917
I want to hang with you, buddy.
212
00:13:25.237 --> 00:13:26.317
Your friends will be there.
213
00:13:26.337 --> 00:13:27.598
Your mentors will be there.
214
00:13:27.818 --> 00:13:29.939
New friends, new mentors will be there.
215
00:13:30.499 --> 00:13:33.060
It has changed my entire, but the energy too.
216
00:13:33.740 --> 00:13:37.902
What's nice about our event, it isn't just a sit down behind the desk and take notes.
217
00:13:38.162 --> 00:13:39.483
It's high energy.
218
00:13:39.703 --> 00:13:40.903
It's high value.
219
00:13:41.103 --> 00:13:42.044
It's high fun.
220
00:13:42.544 --> 00:13:44.245
God knows we need some fun right now.
221
00:13:44.285 --> 00:13:45.565
And you know, we like to have fun.
222
00:13:45.705 --> 00:13:48.486
You know, we start off opening night with a giant party.
223
00:13:48.806 --> 00:13:52.428
We end the event with a giant party and a cornhole contest.
224
00:13:52.808 --> 00:13:53.968
We believe in networking.
225
00:13:54.008 --> 00:13:56.369
We believe in getting re-energized.
226
00:13:56.409 --> 00:13:59.410
How would you like to be re-energized for the industry?
227
00:14:00.290 --> 00:14:13.373
When you leave an event and you have even two new ideas, let alone maybe eight to 10 new ideas, you're actually excited because you have something new to work on, something new to share with your team, something new that's going to create business.
228
00:14:13.533 --> 00:14:16.294
It is exciting when you leave and you're pumped up.
229
00:14:16.694 --> 00:14:20.515
But like you said, what's cool is with the collective and this community, we're
230
00:14:20.655 --> 00:14:22.036
We're going to actually help you implement.
231
00:14:22.076 --> 00:14:28.398
We've all left with good intentions and then go back home and go back to our normal habits and putting out fires.
232
00:14:28.558 --> 00:14:29.178
I get it.
233
00:14:29.238 --> 00:14:30.299
That's our life.
234
00:14:30.319 --> 00:14:31.399
That's how we pay the bills.
235
00:14:31.539 --> 00:14:39.963
But to get true transformation, like you said, Jeff, very eloquently said, you need help in implementing.
236
00:14:40.043 --> 00:14:41.263
It's all about implementation.
237
00:14:41.283 --> 00:14:42.304
And we're going to help you with that.
238
00:14:42.564 --> 00:14:44.204
We're going to help you throughout the entire year.
239
00:14:44.284 --> 00:14:45.545
It's going to be phenomenal.
240
00:14:45.705 --> 00:14:46.405
Yeah, 100%.
241
00:14:46.786 --> 00:14:54.991
And yeah, I mean, look, if you, the other thing too that happens being in the room, and I know people who've been to an event can relate to this.
242
00:14:55.011 --> 00:14:59.154
I'm not sure if you've been to a momentum builder, but you should because you've got a serious lineup.
243
00:14:59.174 --> 00:15:00.175
We'll talk through in a second.
244
00:15:00.195 --> 00:15:00.375
Sick.
245
00:15:01.949 --> 00:15:07.174
But the other benefit of being around winners, like, you know, the rising tide lifts all boats, right?
246
00:15:07.234 --> 00:15:20.705
And so the other cool thing is you see in network and talk to other people winning, and all of a sudden this new paradigm opens for you where you've met these people, like, oh, it's a challenging market, but here's so-and-so over here doing 20 units a month.
247
00:15:20.966 --> 00:15:26.330
Here's this person over here doing 12 units, and you're at your three or four, and all you want to do is get to six.
248
00:15:26.791 --> 00:15:28.733
Well, all of a sudden that, you know, your whole,
249
00:15:29.353 --> 00:15:32.534
identity of what's possible for you is stretched.
250
00:15:32.754 --> 00:15:38.835
And I think that's one of the biggest benefits of being around these other people is it really opens up the idea of what's possible.
251
00:15:39.735 --> 00:15:46.556
So dude, that's why I love having you as a friend and you're such a blessing to the industry because you get it, you see that.
252
00:15:46.696 --> 00:15:54.838
And that was so eloquently put that, okay, maybe I'm not gonna be able to get to 20 or 40 like that person on stage, but hey, if I do just
253
00:15:55.078 --> 00:15:56.019
part of what they're doing.
254
00:15:56.039 --> 00:15:58.221
I can go from three to six and six to 12.
255
00:15:58.641 --> 00:15:59.702
That's your catalyst.
256
00:15:59.722 --> 00:16:02.164
That's your spark, you know, that's going to get you there.
257
00:16:02.505 --> 00:16:04.747
And what's really nice, Jeff, is it's real.
258
00:16:05.047 --> 00:16:06.608
All my speakers are just real.
259
00:16:06.648 --> 00:16:11.613
They're you and I, they're not untouchable gods that they're, they actually will hang out with you.
260
00:16:11.853 --> 00:16:14.515
They'll talk to you and they're going to share their secrets.
261
00:16:14.575 --> 00:16:16.157
They're literally not worried about you.
262
00:16:16.517 --> 00:16:19.920
Just like when I go on stage, like, why would you tell all your secrets, Don, shoot.
263
00:16:20.220 --> 00:16:20.921
I'm not worried.
264
00:16:21.081 --> 00:16:22.762
I'm not worried about you taking my market share.
265
00:16:22.802 --> 00:16:24.922
That's why I own my market share.
266
00:16:25.242 --> 00:16:27.903
And if I can help someone, then more power to you.
267
00:16:28.203 --> 00:16:29.483
And that's what they feel.
268
00:16:29.844 --> 00:16:40.687
And what's really cool too is I bring in a lot of outside speakers too to help with fresh perspective, fresh mindsets, fresh ideas, personal branding, health and wellness.
269
00:16:41.027 --> 00:16:45.508
We even have a wealth panel to start talking about how to build wealth because our industry sucks at it.
270
00:16:46.048 --> 00:16:50.534
We always get on the hamster wheel, make a lot of money, spend a lot of money, go make a lot of money, spend a lot of money.
271
00:16:50.574 --> 00:16:52.896
Now we're going to talk about how to create real freedom.
272
00:16:53.637 --> 00:17:03.810
This is a holistic approach that we're putting together at Momentum Builder to really change your mindset and help you be fulfilled personally and financially.
273
00:17:04.050 --> 00:17:05.672
I mean, that's what our goal really is.
274
00:17:05.970 --> 00:17:08.473
Let's talk about some of the speakers.
275
00:17:08.513 --> 00:17:09.213
You've got panels.
276
00:17:09.233 --> 00:17:14.018
There's too many to talk about all of them, but who are some of the standouts for you that you want to make sure you highlight?
277
00:17:14.318 --> 00:17:14.899
Okay.
278
00:17:15.139 --> 00:17:17.201
Opening night alone is going to be worth it.
279
00:17:17.241 --> 00:17:19.043
You're going to be super pumped.
280
00:17:19.363 --> 00:17:22.026
We don't start till 4.30 on opening night on Tuesday.
281
00:17:22.166 --> 00:17:24.688
Reason being, so you have all day to get into Dallas.
282
00:17:24.749 --> 00:17:29.974
We moved from Vegas to Dallas to get rid of the distractions for one, because I really want transformation.
283
00:17:29.994 --> 00:17:30.314
Yeah.
284
00:17:30.414 --> 00:17:31.414
Vegas, really tough.
285
00:17:31.474 --> 00:17:32.575
I'm sorry, too many distractions.
286
00:17:32.595 --> 00:17:35.076
You go to most of those events early in the morning, it's empty.
287
00:17:35.096 --> 00:17:37.256
And in the later afternoon, that's empty because they're at the pool.
288
00:17:37.596 --> 00:17:41.057
This is, this is focus time because this two days is going to change your life.
289
00:17:41.097 --> 00:17:43.518
And don't worry, we're going to have some fun and, and all that.
290
00:17:43.538 --> 00:17:45.499
So it's not just a complete grind at all.
291
00:17:45.859 --> 00:17:47.560
when you listen to speakers, you're going to be excited.
292
00:17:47.600 --> 00:17:53.384
So opening night, we have Brian Biro, who is the number one breakthrough speaker in the world.
293
00:17:53.584 --> 00:17:59.247
He's going to help you really pull back and figure out how to break through whatever level you're at.
294
00:17:59.267 --> 00:18:02.749
I don't care if you're a two producer or a 20-a-month producer.
295
00:18:02.989 --> 00:18:04.710
Everybody wants to get to that next level.
296
00:18:05.010 --> 00:18:08.232
He's going to help you peel back what's stopping you from breaking through.
297
00:18:08.252 --> 00:18:10.654
And he's going to do it in a very fun way.
298
00:18:10.674 --> 00:18:11.735
We have...
299
00:18:12.535 --> 00:18:13.055
with Coach Bill.
300
00:18:13.095 --> 00:18:14.096
Hard opening night.
301
00:18:14.296 --> 00:18:19.438
He is one of the masters in this industry for decades, sharing his perspective.
302
00:18:19.458 --> 00:18:20.678
And then we go to a great party.
303
00:18:21.098 --> 00:18:22.739
Next day we have Coach Michael Bird.
304
00:18:23.059 --> 00:18:24.380
You probably saw him last year.
305
00:18:24.440 --> 00:18:25.080
I brought him back.
306
00:18:25.200 --> 00:18:27.081
Because this dude is a rock star.
307
00:18:27.581 --> 00:18:32.323
He was a coach, but now he teaches people how to release their genius.
308
00:18:32.723 --> 00:18:35.465
and basically create their business as a business.
309
00:18:35.565 --> 00:18:37.706
Because remember, this isn't just a job.
310
00:18:37.746 --> 00:18:39.227
This isn't a salary job.
311
00:18:39.547 --> 00:18:42.188
You need to create it like a business, and he sparks it.
312
00:18:42.208 --> 00:18:45.090
And then right after him, Rory Baden, are you kidding me?
313
00:18:45.110 --> 00:18:46.511
I can't believe I have him on the stage.
314
00:18:46.871 --> 00:18:50.193
One of the number one brand builders in the world.
315
00:18:50.373 --> 00:18:52.074
This guy knows how to build brands.
316
00:18:52.574 --> 00:18:54.875
And I saw him on Neil Dinger's stage.
317
00:18:55.275 --> 00:18:57.056
I had three pages of notes from this guy.
318
00:18:57.417 --> 00:18:59.538
So that's why I was so excited to get him on our stage.
319
00:19:00.178 --> 00:19:01.579
Chris Welton, you know Chris.
320
00:19:02.179 --> 00:19:04.341
He's going to talk about how to overcome adversity.
321
00:19:04.702 --> 00:19:06.223
The guy was born with one arm.
322
00:19:06.463 --> 00:19:07.324
I mean, come on.
323
00:19:07.664 --> 00:19:07.784
Yeah.
324
00:19:07.804 --> 00:19:07.985
Right.
325
00:19:08.305 --> 00:19:09.066
But he crushes it.
326
00:19:09.326 --> 00:19:13.530
And he does like Ironmans and he does all these things you don't think someone could do.
327
00:19:14.491 --> 00:19:21.157
We have Neil Dengra, again, the master in our industry right now with personal branding to create more business.
328
00:19:21.277 --> 00:19:22.759
I have neuroscientists showing up.
329
00:19:22.959 --> 00:19:25.901
They're actually going to do, Jeff, they're going to do brain scans at the event.
330
00:19:26.022 --> 00:19:26.222
Really?
331
00:19:26.242 --> 00:19:26.342
Yeah.
332
00:19:26.622 --> 00:19:28.964
and figure out what works in your brain, what isn't working.
333
00:19:28.984 --> 00:19:30.445
That could be dangerous.
334
00:19:30.585 --> 00:19:31.626
Yeah, that's what I tell them.
335
00:19:31.726 --> 00:19:40.254
I go, I don't know, I'm gonna give away my joke that I'm gonna have the stage, but I'm a little afraid of them doing that with me because they might not find anything in there.
336
00:19:41.194 --> 00:19:42.055
Any signs of life?
337
00:19:42.796 --> 00:19:43.416
Yeah, yeah, like,
338
00:19:44.497 --> 00:19:44.977
Sorry, Don.
339
00:19:45.158 --> 00:19:46.178
Now we know what your problem is.
340
00:19:46.798 --> 00:19:51.601
But they're going to talk about how your brain can be more resilient and how to handle things like anxiety.
341
00:19:51.661 --> 00:19:54.363
And believe me, our industry has a lot of anxiety right now.
342
00:19:54.483 --> 00:19:57.225
There's a lot of inconsistencies in business right now.
343
00:19:57.585 --> 00:19:58.866
I mean, I can go on and on.
344
00:19:59.206 --> 00:20:02.688
You know the players, Kim Perry's and Josh Pitts.
345
00:20:02.828 --> 00:20:04.029
And it's powerful.
346
00:20:04.909 --> 00:20:05.349
Powerful.
347
00:20:05.369 --> 00:20:07.270
And then we have panels, really strong panels.
348
00:20:07.290 --> 00:20:16.155
Dave Savage is leading two amazing panels with rising stars, sharing very simple steps of how they're crushing the market over 100 million right now.
349
00:20:16.495 --> 00:20:17.615
It's going to be awesome.
350
00:20:17.815 --> 00:20:21.617
Well, I know there's a couple on there who I personally know I've actually done some work with.
351
00:20:22.458 --> 00:20:23.478
People like Brady Thomas.
352
00:20:23.979 --> 00:20:25.459
He's one of our rising stars.
353
00:20:25.559 --> 00:20:28.201
And what he's sharing, Jeff, you know him.
354
00:20:28.481 --> 00:20:30.322
What he shares, you're going to go, that's all he did?
355
00:20:31.260 --> 00:20:31.920
Very simple.
356
00:20:32.400 --> 00:20:32.580
True.
357
00:20:32.600 --> 00:20:33.300
But he is killing it.
358
00:20:33.380 --> 00:20:34.961
And he doesn't even live in his market.
359
00:20:35.201 --> 00:20:37.701
Most of the time, his market's in Oakland, California.
360
00:20:37.741 --> 00:20:41.462
He lives in Boston most of the time because his wife's a professor in Boston.
361
00:20:41.882 --> 00:20:44.123
And he does over $100 million in production.
362
00:20:44.663 --> 00:20:44.883
Yeah.
363
00:20:44.963 --> 00:20:46.083
And he's able to do that, right?
364
00:20:46.103 --> 00:20:48.544
Because of some shifts, very simple shifts he made in his business.
365
00:20:48.584 --> 00:20:50.664
But I'll just, I'll tease it out a little bit.
366
00:20:50.684 --> 00:20:58.826
At least, I don't know if he's talking about this, but I know part of it was how he approaches realtors and how he changed the dynamics of how he works together with them.
367
00:20:58.846 --> 00:21:00.426
So he stopped chasing and all that stuff.
368
00:21:00.846 --> 00:21:01.126
Yeah.
369
00:21:01.146 --> 00:21:04.067
So he became more of a partner and that grew his business 40%.
370
00:21:04.087 --> 00:21:05.407
So that, that alone.
371
00:21:05.427 --> 00:21:09.088
And then you have Abdel there, who the gorilla, who's going to be talking about AI, I'm sure.
372
00:21:09.108 --> 00:21:09.868
Right.
373
00:21:30.553 --> 00:21:51.903
percent this year wow really 178 and he's going to talk on that of how he's actually using ai not talking about how cool it will be and yet you should be using it he's actually using it and he's crushing it yeah he's built systems and processes that help streamline his overall efficiency which allows him to scale and do more volume without necessarily actually hiring less people to scale and do that volume so right
374
00:21:52.943 --> 00:21:53.883
All right, so let's do this.
375
00:21:53.923 --> 00:21:55.544
People are teased enough.
376
00:21:55.564 --> 00:21:56.084
They're curious.
377
00:21:56.104 --> 00:21:56.905
They want to know more.
378
00:21:56.925 --> 00:21:58.125
Give us the details.
379
00:21:58.165 --> 00:21:59.346
This is when in October?
380
00:21:59.586 --> 00:22:03.267
October 6th through the 8th in Dallas at a beautiful hotel.
381
00:22:03.307 --> 00:22:03.968
Badass hotel.
382
00:22:03.988 --> 00:22:04.808
You saw it.
383
00:22:04.868 --> 00:22:06.769
I mean, the ballroom's amazing.
384
00:22:06.869 --> 00:22:09.890
And what's really cool as I moved it there is because one of the most important places
385
00:22:09.970 --> 00:22:16.658
pieces that you have to understand by being at the event is the connections and the networking and the people you're going to meet.
386
00:22:16.839 --> 00:22:22.306
And I moved it to this location because in Vegas, when the event was done, everybody disperses.
387
00:22:22.346 --> 00:22:25.590
You never get to go and meet people or see your friends, even.
388
00:22:25.610 --> 00:22:27.112
You're like, oh, where the hell did Jeff go?
389
00:22:27.132 --> 00:22:27.232
Jeff,
390
00:22:27.492 --> 00:22:30.673
Well, you're off at a concert or you're with somebody else.
391
00:22:30.693 --> 00:22:38.456
But so this has one central area, one giant 100 foot long bar with seating all around it.
392
00:22:38.576 --> 00:22:41.797
And whether you drink or not, you know where your friends are going to be.
393
00:22:41.937 --> 00:22:48.820
You know, the leaders are going to be besides the networking party at the opening night, besides networking party on a terrace outside outside.
394
00:22:49.453 --> 00:22:53.596
it's going to be game changing for you because you're going to be pumped up and you're going to have new friends.
395
00:22:53.616 --> 00:22:55.317
They're going to help you hold you accountable.
396
00:22:55.657 --> 00:22:58.259
And like you said, rising tides lifts all ships.
397
00:22:58.359 --> 00:22:59.941
And that's, that's what it's all about.
398
00:23:00.021 --> 00:23:04.244
So October 6th through the 8th in Dallas, but you need, I, I,
399
00:23:04.864 --> 00:23:05.904
You just need to pull the trigger.
400
00:23:05.924 --> 00:23:08.485
The problem is, is a lot of people, a lot of you will think about it.
401
00:23:08.805 --> 00:23:14.027
But once you actually purchase your ticket, and this is not a sales pitch, I want the right people in the room.
402
00:23:14.367 --> 00:23:16.668
But because you want to grow, I want you there.
403
00:23:16.808 --> 00:23:17.828
Because this is the right.
404
00:23:17.949 --> 00:23:21.010
You'll see that the group that shows up at our event, you've seen it, Jeff.
405
00:23:21.110 --> 00:23:21.910
They show up on time.
406
00:23:22.390 --> 00:23:25.773
They come back on time and they stay the whole time because it's all value.
407
00:23:25.993 --> 00:23:27.714
Every single speaker and panel adds value.
408
00:23:27.734 --> 00:23:28.695
You don't want to miss anything.
409
00:23:29.055 --> 00:23:35.701
So I want you to pull the trigger so that as soon as you do, you're going to go, all right, I'm going to do something to make change.
410
00:23:35.821 --> 00:23:37.002
I'm going to do something to grow.
411
00:23:37.042 --> 00:23:42.186
I'm going to do something to improve my life for me and my family, whether it's for you or not.
412
00:23:42.466 --> 00:23:43.407
So it's not a cost.
413
00:23:43.447 --> 00:23:46.650
It's an investment and a very small investment to change your life.
414
00:23:47.030 --> 00:23:51.434
Oh my gosh, it's like one third of one loan, a commission on one loan or something like that.
415
00:23:51.474 --> 00:23:53.255
It's absolutely completely reasonable.
416
00:23:53.476 --> 00:24:05.125
So October 6th through the 8th in Dallas, we're gonna link the website in the show notes, but I'm reading some of the success stories such as income is up 300%, doubled my sales, I'm working less than 25 hours a week now, right?
417
00:24:05.166 --> 00:24:06.206
Advanced to the next level.
418
00:24:07.167 --> 00:24:10.490
The thing I want to kind of double tap on is it's going to be October, right?
419
00:24:10.830 --> 00:24:12.852
And before you know it, January is going to be here.
420
00:24:13.052 --> 00:24:13.712
Oh, good point.
421
00:24:13.893 --> 00:24:16.855
The question is, how ready are you for 2027?
422
00:24:17.035 --> 00:24:20.578
Because you know this, and I'm sure you've preached this to your people in the past.
423
00:24:20.978 --> 00:24:30.326
What you do starting October 1st, I'll give you that leeway, I say today, but October 1st, what you do from that moment on through Q4, build your Q1 pipeline.
424
00:24:30.666 --> 00:24:34.229
And so if you're going to show up flat footed in January, you're going to already be behind.
425
00:24:34.289 --> 00:24:36.471
So you better have the right process and system in place.
426
00:24:36.752 --> 00:24:40.715
Most importantly, the right mindset if you're going to show up to win and crush it in 2027.
427
00:24:40.735 --> 00:24:43.638
So that's my great leader, Jeff.
428
00:24:43.718 --> 00:24:53.207
That's that's so important because, you know, we've managed people for for years and and in most cases in our industry, January, February, March suck.
429
00:24:53.667 --> 00:24:54.767
That's a technical term.
430
00:24:55.388 --> 00:24:59.189
But that's only because they didn't do their work during the holidays.
431
00:24:59.269 --> 00:25:04.971
I tell my team, some of my best months are November, December, because my competition's distracted.
432
00:25:05.191 --> 00:25:07.251
They're dealing with the holidays.
433
00:25:07.592 --> 00:25:13.413
And then I start the year off on fire, which then puts your mindset in the right place that I'm going to have one of my best years ever.
434
00:25:13.734 --> 00:25:14.874
But if you start off behind
435
00:25:15.274 --> 00:25:18.256
then you're going to stay behind and you're going to actually just wash the year away.
436
00:25:18.276 --> 00:25:20.457
You're going to go, oh, my year sucks, another bad year.
437
00:25:20.777 --> 00:25:22.278
Do not, no more excuses.
438
00:25:22.638 --> 00:25:24.259
You need reasons, not excuses.
439
00:25:24.599 --> 00:25:27.041
This is the reason to change your life today.
440
00:25:27.061 --> 00:25:33.204
And I guarantee it, I always tell people, I'll give you more money back if you don't get value out of it, but I've never had to pay it ever.
441
00:25:33.604 --> 00:25:34.165
Absolutely.
442
00:25:34.565 --> 00:25:36.826
Yeah, we worked so hard at this event.
443
00:25:36.966 --> 00:25:43.130
I mean, I'm pouring 16 hour days to make sure that this event is the best they've ever been at.
444
00:25:43.230 --> 00:25:44.711
It's going to be off the charts.
445
00:25:44.731 --> 00:25:44.971
Yeah.
446
00:25:45.092 --> 00:25:47.853
Well, I've been to every event there is out there, both in and out of mortgage.
447
00:25:48.073 --> 00:25:52.193
As you know, I've been in this kind of personal development industry for over 30 years.
448
00:25:52.373 --> 00:25:57.994
And so I've been to all kinds of, I mean, I got to see Jim Rohn back when he was alive and spent time with Robbins and all that stuff.
449
00:25:58.014 --> 00:26:00.135
But yeah, so, and that's why I'm happy.
450
00:26:00.415 --> 00:26:03.195
I don't usually bring a lot of people on the podcast and promote them.
451
00:26:03.575 --> 00:26:04.956
You're one of the few that I've done that.
452
00:26:04.976 --> 00:26:08.516
And that's because I went last year and I felt so strongly about it.
453
00:26:08.596 --> 00:26:10.837
So that's, you know, that means a lot to me, Jeff.
454
00:26:10.937 --> 00:26:11.277
Thank you.
455
00:26:11.297 --> 00:26:11.497
Yeah.
456
00:26:11.837 --> 00:26:13.398
That means a lot because that's my passion.
457
00:26:13.598 --> 00:26:15.900
It is really to provide value, not to sell tickets.
458
00:26:16.320 --> 00:26:18.681
It's really, this is my give back to the industry.
459
00:26:19.042 --> 00:26:23.524
I love the industry and I want to make it easier for everybody because it's a tough industry.
460
00:26:23.584 --> 00:26:27.747
Sales is one of the toughest jobs in the world, but that's why we get paid what we get paid.
461
00:26:28.107 --> 00:26:29.448
We get paid more than a doctor.
462
00:26:29.748 --> 00:26:34.091
So you have to put the time, effort, but you have to do it smart and we're going to help you do it smart.
463
00:26:34.451 --> 00:26:35.972
And that way you don't just get burned out.
464
00:26:36.112 --> 00:26:40.713
Don't make a mistake that I did and so many others did when we were originating is you're trying to figure it out all on your own.
465
00:26:41.114 --> 00:26:47.315
You gotta get around the right people who've been there before you and learn from them, draft them, so to speak, right?
466
00:26:47.756 --> 00:26:48.636
And follow their lead.
467
00:26:48.696 --> 00:26:51.877

468
00:26:51.897 --> 00:26:52.937

I don't know of a better way for you to invest the, you know, fall months to prepare for the new year in 2027 for you to get a leg up.
476
00:27:08.556 --> 00:27:10.579
So, Don, I'm looking forward to this year.
477
00:27:10.800 --> 00:27:11.000
Yeah.
478
00:27:11.080 --> 00:27:12.781
I am pumped up.
479
00:27:13.221 --> 00:27:14.462
I'm so excited about this year.
480
00:27:14.502 --> 00:27:16.502
My lineup is full.
481
00:27:16.843 --> 00:27:18.023
It's going to be amazing.
482
00:27:18.103 --> 00:27:20.404
And I can't wait to see the transformations.
483
00:27:20.604 --> 00:27:22.465
I get to talk to, you'll see.
484
00:27:22.645 --> 00:27:24.346
I don't just get on the stage and leave.
485
00:27:24.366 --> 00:27:24.766
You know me.
486
00:27:24.846 --> 00:27:26.607
I'll be around talking and meeting people.
487
00:27:27.047 --> 00:27:33.350
I get to hear stories of how people improved since last year and how excited they are for this year.
488
00:27:33.770 --> 00:27:36.191
How about being excited about the mortgage industry?
489
00:27:36.251 --> 00:27:39.973
I know right now it seems like it's just nothing but a kick in the you know what.
490
00:27:41.073 --> 00:27:42.533
there's a lot of people excited about it.
491
00:27:42.593 --> 00:27:49.135
So let's make sure our group that's at Momentum Builder Live, October 6th or the 8th, are the ones that are excited about the industry and leading the charge.
492
00:27:49.175 --> 00:27:49.695
That's my goal.
493
00:27:49.715 --> 00:27:49.995
Right on.
494
00:27:50.536 --> 00:27:51.076
All right, my man.
495
00:27:51.416 --> 00:27:52.636

So I can report back to Don and say, hey, man, we got some people to show up because of this podcast.

Oh, and grab your tickets now.
506
00:28:11.862 --> 00:28:13.584
Prices continue to go up.
507
00:28:13.644 --> 00:28:16.346
And VIPs are almost sold out, which I'm really excited about.
508
00:28:16.386 --> 00:28:17.807
There's only a few VIPs left.
509
00:28:17.847 --> 00:28:18.788
So you want to grab those.
510
00:28:18.808 --> 00:28:19.829
You want to be in that room.
511
00:28:20.189 --> 00:28:21.210
You get to be in the front.
512
00:28:21.230 --> 00:28:22.531
You get to be with other VIPs.
513
00:28:22.591 --> 00:28:25.574
And you get your lunch and lunch and learn with some rock stars.
514
00:28:25.814 --> 00:28:26.675
It's going to be really cool.
515
00:28:26.995 --> 00:28:27.195
Yeah.
516
00:28:27.275 --> 00:28:28.617
Well, all right, listeners, you know what to do.
517
00:28:28.637 --> 00:28:29.357
Go ahead and register.

00:28:29.417 --> 00:28:32.020
I looked forward to seeing you in Dallas.

00:28:32.060 --> 00:28:33.341
Don, thank you as always.
520
00:28:33.921 --> 00:28:34.802
And we'll see you soon.
521
00:28:35.062 --> 00:28:35.322
All right.
522
00:28:35.382 --> 00:28:36.443
Thanks for the opportunity, buddy.
523
00:28:36.503 --> 00:28:37.544
And we'll see you in Dallas.
524
00:28:37.764 --> 00:28:38.245
That's right.
525
00:28:38.365 --> 00:28:38.745
You bet.
526
00:28:39.026 --> 00:28:39.346
Bye-bye.
