Additional Programs

Dave will develop a custom program to meet your organization’s needs.  Many of these programs are designed for both loan officers and real estate agents so you can deliver more value to your targets by inviting agents to the presentation. They can be delivered live or by webinar. Choose from this complete topic list, along with the featured programs, to start building your custom program:

In this era of rapid change, what is it going to take to succeed as a new world of lending is upon us? Technology brings opportunities but also more competition, especially in a purchase market. Today, planning for the future is more important than ever.

Finding time to market is one of the most difficult tasks for a loan officer and a company. What if the greatest marketing opportunity was right under your nose?  We can show you how the loans you close can result in a perpetual source of referrals – whether you are purchasing leads or a street loan officer converting referrals.

Working under a joint venture, desk rental or as a real estate subsidiary.  Learn how to master the inside office challenge and turn any office into an unlimited source of relationships and referrals – no matter what the size.  Dave Hershman started out inside a real estate office and closed over 550 loans in his first 18 months as a rookie.

Whether you are dealing with referrals or cold calls, losing a prospect generated through your marketing is a very expensive proposition. Work on telephone, questioning, conversational, objection response and additional skills that will help increase your conversion rates.

When the market slows down, first-time buyers are still always going strong, because there is always a shortage of affordable homes for first-timers.  Learn how to target and service this all-important market, including teaching the economic reasons to own and how to market to this segment.

You will open the door to referrals by exceeding the customer’s expectations. You will never reach that point unless you master the application and customer delivery process. This program will show you how to set up your business for success from the start of the process to getting referrals before and after closing.

The ultimate value for real estate agents and loan officers. Go through the economics of leverage, tax equivalency, inflation hedging and the concept of a forced savings plan. Learn these so you can mentor real estate agents, while keeping in mind the many social advantages of homeownership.

A true mortgage advisor can help a prospect select a mortgage that best meets their financial needs. Learn how to compare fixed rates, fixed hybrids and adjustables knowing that you can’t predict the future. The process would be much easier if you could predict the future.

Call reluctance is the number one killer of sales. Yet, we all have some call reluctance.  Learn how to identify your source and methods of over-coming call reluctance.

In this day of high-tech targeted marketing, no person can be effective without top notch presentation skills. This session will help overcome the fear of public speaking and show you how mastering this skill will differentiate you from the competition
