Monday April 28Good morning, We have the newly redesigned Real Estate Under Construction newsletter now available for your use. Not only do you now have a very eye-catching design and graphics, but also: new calls to action, new text and sections, more customization. I recommend that you try 2 sends back to back to your target realtors and compare the results. Enjoy the newsletter! Monday April 7Good morning members of the LO Lab! Early this A.M. we completed the addition of the "FSBO Elite" marketing program donated by Brian Rodgers. It has been added to the Real Estate Marketing section of the site, as well as the full Buyer Pool campaign. Next on the list is the new Real Estate Business Primer marketing campaigns. While it's not quite available for you to use, you can take a look at the progress below. (Looks great doesn't it?) This is a professionally designed template to get the attention of your target market. The text seen on the template is just placeholder text, so don't fret over any typo's. Last but not least, we also will be adding some excellent updates to the Member Spotlight section of the site. Chris generated more than 70 leads last week! He's not playing games folks! PS - If you're in or near Houston Texas, I will be speaking at the Texas Association of Mortgage Brokers event in May... More details coming soon. :)  Tuesday April 1Good morning! We have begun the transfer of audio modules to the site. When you log in this morning, you will find multiple audio training clips throughout the site. We have included recordings of members only conference calls, training sessions, and even instructional audio for various campaigns. (The Business Primer now contains the introduction audio) Much more on the way. We are also working on transferring much of the training into a "modulized" approach to make these campaigns even more user friendly. Plus, don't forget that we uploaded a large amount of content to the Real Estate Marketing Archives yesterday. This content will go live by this afternoon/evening for you to download, and share with your real estate partners. Enjoy!
Monday March 10As promised we have added new content and sections to the Lab. You will notice 2 things this morning: 1 - For the first time, there are now 12 full issues of the Real Estate Business Primer available! Go ahead and check the Business Primer section of the site to enjoy 6 months worth of marketing content. You can deliver these issues as you see fit. There is no better way to get a real estate agent to pick up the phone and call you. Take advantage of this new content today! 2 - Next, you will see that we have added the Member Spotlight section to the site. Chris is this months subject, who has managed to add 5 or more loans to his pipeline, and run nearly 30 realtor appointments in 5 weeks using 1 strategy found on this site. How did he do it, and how will he beat his numbers in the next 30 days? Each week Chris will keep us informed so we can watch how he grows... Oh yea, and did I mention that Chris has been a loan officer for less than 2 years? I'll let you know when the recordings with Chris become available. In the meantime, check out the updates and make this week one of your best yet!

if you'd like to volunteer for our very first member spotlight.  Last, but certainly not least, we are working on installing the audio training files, and a few more sections of content. Once we have completed the transfer 100%, we will begin uploading additional content that has never before been released, and some other "surprise and delight" features that we have not flipped the switch on yet. Chat with you next time!
Welcome to our NEW and much improved Loan Officer Marketing Lab! Please be patient as we transfer over the mounds of content from the old site. By Friday evening, we should have 98% of the content converted, in addition to the content formatted. (Right now, some of the content is not optimized for correct positioning) So why the sweeping change? Several reasons: 1 - This new publishing system allows us to provide you with new content, uploads, and media nearly 3 times quicker than before. Much of the content created took so long to update through the previous user interface, it was simply never completed. So this means more announcements, updates, and ultimately more communication. 2 - This new system allows you to search the content of the site. How many times have you needed a specificdocument or article and simply could not find it? Now you can! 3 - Dynamic School and education features. One of the main reasons I switched to this new system, is it provides a learning environment software. In other words, while it may take a while to deliver it to you (A few more months) - you will soon have an automated learning module that combines text, audio, testing and commenting all in a step by step environment. Can you imagine an easier way to learn and retain knowledge? So there you have it. Easier to navigate, better looking, and ultimately, more content! All those updates we had planned for you last year will get here fast! New templates to the Business Primer, Real Estate Autoposy, business cards and more can now be uploaded. Thank you for your patience! PS --- A Sneak Peek for you: visit www.fsboleadportal.com --- Those of you who registered for the beta test will be using this site for free soon! :)
