Getting Your Foot in the Door..Literally! Two Loan Officer Marketing Tactics

Sometimes it's all a matter of being different, and truly standing apart from the crowd.

As loan officers, we tend to get the same advice from our managers, we read the same books and listen to the same audio programs.

We want to find new business, but we are all being told to find new business from the same sources (so the effectiveness of any marketing that we do is diminished to some respect).

I love watching salespeople take bold actions when it comes to marketing and prospecting for new business.

I knew of one loan officer who ordered 100 pumpkins a few weeks before Halloween. He had made an arrangement with a local supermarket to use a portion of their parking lot to give out the pumpkins.

He placed an ad in the paper, put a few flyers in nearby grocery stores, diners and laudromats, and was lucky enough to have the local newspaper cover the story the morning he gave out the pumpkins.

It was a huge success!

The turn out was overwhelming. He ran out of pumpkins with two hours of starting, but he met 100 people and couples that day, and he walked away with 8 good leads for immediate business.

Was it hard work? Sure it was, but it all paid off many times over. And the reason why it paid off was because the average loan officer just wouldn't have done it.

Another young and ambitious loan officer really pushed the envelope.

He had just started out and was looking for a way to break the ice when meeting new real estate agents. So this is what he did:

He went to the local discount shoe store, and purchased 5 pairs of plain black shoes (they were about $5 a pair).

He printed small labels to put on the shoelaces that read:

Hi. My name is John Smith and I am trying to "get my foot in the door." I will be back to your office next Tuesday morning to meet with you.

He then went to a real estate office that he was going to focus on this month, and place one shoe in each of the mailboxes of the agents.

Was this a little much? Possibly. And I wish I could have seen the real estate agents' faces when they pulled their shoes out of their mailboxes.

But the young loan officer did break the ice and he did get a very productive referral source from that office. And even till this day, whenever someone from that real estate office seems, they say
"Hey, you're the guy with the shoes."

So think creatively with your marketing efforts. Stand apart from the average loan officer. Be different and be remembered.

Music For Hangovers

Music For Hangovers
At an age when most professionals are entertaining thoughts of early retirement, Cheap Trick continue to burnish their reputation as arguably the best live rock band on the planet. Recorded over a four-night stand at Chicago's Metro in 1998, this live collection can't escape comparison with the band's unlikely breakthrough, 1979's Cheap Trick at Budokan, (reissued in 1998 as the two-CD Cheap Trick at Budokan: The Complete Concert). Save for the historical-snapshot quaintness of the Budokan recording, this is the better record in every way. The material here, culled largely from the band's first three studio albums (Cheap Trick, In Color, and Heaven Tonight, themselves reissued in generous packages in 1998) dates mostly from their mid-'70s, pre-label club days, the exceptions being "Gonna Raise Hell" and the title track from Dream Police, "If You Want My Love" from One on One, and "I Can't Take It" from Next Position Please. Despite their vintage, these are songs that any alt-rock wunderkind half Cheap Trick's age would be proud to call his own; in fact, the Smashing Pumpkins' Billy Corgan joins them onstage here to perform "Mandocello," a "lost" gem of a ballad from Cheap Trick's eponymous debut album. Deliciously loud and musically staggering, the band breathes fire into the ubiquitous ("Surrender," "I Want You to Want Me") and unfamiliar ("Hot Love," "So Good to See You," "Gonna Raise Hell") alike with indiscriminate glee. With Music for Hangovers, Cheap Trick finally have a live recording to equal their remarkable performing legacy. --Jerry McCulley

Customer Review: Cheap Trick - 'Music For Hangovers' (Cheap Trick Unlimited)

Should be able to obtain a copy of this gem for really low-priced almost anywhere you look.'Music...' was recorded at one of the four-night special engagement they played at Chicago's Metro in 1998 to mark the 25th anniversary release of their first album.That's what I've heard anyway.Tracks off 'Music For Hangovers' are all if not mostly off of the band's first three lp's.An old school Cheap Trick fan's dream police(er,I mean dream)come true.Sound is great,almost as if you were there yourself.Tracks that were more than a delight to relive again include "Surrender","I Can't Take It","Dream Police","The Ballad Of T.V.Violence"(haven't heard this cut in awhile now),"Gonna Raise Hell" among others.Highly recommended.A must-have.
