Hey there, Rainmakers! Ever feel like you’re doing all the right things, but your growth has stalled? Chances are, one of four sales mistakes is holding you back — and until you fix it, you’re stuck spinning your wheels.

In this solo episode, I’m exposing the truth about the four big sales mistakes loan officers make — whether you’re a Trust Builder, Technician, Marketer, or Networker. I’ve lived these patterns myself, and I’ve coached hundreds of LOs who’ve been trapped by them. Today, I’m not just calling them out — I’m giving you the exact fixes that will put you back on track to becoming a true Rainmaker.

From expanding your network beyond your comfort zone, to shifting from efficiency to real effectiveness, to turning your marketing into meetings, and making your networking actually convert — I’m laying it all out. If you’re ready for stability, confidence, and freedom in your business, it’s time to face the Achilles heel that’s been holding you back.

💡 What we cover:

• Why playing it safe with the same small circle will stall your growth.
• The Technician trap of efficiency over impact — and how to break it.
• How to stop hiding behind marketing and start converting attention into partnerships.
• Why endless networking won’t work unless you’re strategic about it.
• My proven Top 50 system to track, rate, and deepen your most valuable relationships.
• How to reconnect with people around their goals and families to create true partnerships.
