In this episode Gary discusses why he took a week away from social media, his phone, laptop and all communication. 

Gary didn’t use his phone for an entire week whilst on holiday and over that time he completely changed his relationship with his phone and work.

Gary realised social media is a complete waste of time. The time you spend on social media must be set with a clear intention such as direct response marketing, interacting with people who are interacting with your content or scheduling content. 

Another thing Gary noticed was that his time on his phone was taking away from the quality of the relationships with his family. Being on your phone will make people feel they cannot talk to you because they will feel like they are bothering you. 

This time away from his phone and other devices has made a lasting change in Gary’s life. When he is on holiday he will not be using his phone, and in his day to day life he will have stricter rules around his phone so that he will be more present with his family. 

What Is Covered In Today’s Episode Of The PRO Podcast:

• What led Gary to take a week away from all his devices
• The effect taking time away from work and his phone had on Gary

Welcome to the first episode of the Mortgage Pro podcast, how to generate free mortgage leads. I know if you're a successful broker and looking to grow, you're always looking to get higher quality, higher spending clients and you want more leads, clients or more sales. That's an area that I've had massive amounts of success with.

What is covered

• Why do you want to use social media and content marketing to generate free mortgage leads for your mortgage business.

• Sharing my knowledge to helping others enabled me to write a book.
• The Mortgage Pro free group where we've got the collective mortgage advisors all sharing ideas and helping each other grow businesses, placing cases and everything else.
• By sharing your knowledge, you become an expert. You become an expert in your niche.
• Putting that content out into the world, this is all about generating free mortgage leads.
• Build relationships with people, know, like and trust.
• By sharing your value and sharing your content and putting that out into the world, your in your client's mind before they even want to buy.
• The other reason why you want to be producing content online and investing in social media and taking the time to learn the tools and the tactics around this, which is something that I can help you with, is you're building assets.
• People buy people. If you look at some of the biggest brands that are out there now, you think Virgin, you immediately think Richard Branson. You think Tesla, you think Elon Musk. I think Under Armour, I'm thinking The Rock, Dwayne Johnson. The biggest brands are linked to somebody.

Who to Recruit First – Sales or Administrator?

Growing a business is hard, and sometimes you do it more than once! So, if you are starting from scratch who do you employ first?

Since I started my business in 2006, I've almost had to start again three or four times. I went self-employed in 2006. I started again doing life insurance, critical illness and income protection when the credit crunch hit in 2009. I started again when I bought my business partner out in 2011. I started again in 2016 when I transferred or moved back from life insurance to get back into the mortgage market. So, I've certainly had a rollercoaster starting off my business journey, but what it's enabled me to do is given me perspective on different ways to start. Because when I initially started, I started with an advisor. The last couple of times have been with an administrator, but then the beginning of this year, in 2018, I've started with three advisors and no administrator.

Who do you employ first?

• Mortgage Adviser
• Trainee Mortgage Adviser
• Mortgage Administrator / PA
• Apprentice

It all depends on where your business is at. The fundamental thing that you're going to need to assess, whether you're looking at taking on an advisor or an administrator, is what are your key values and your key strengths. What are the things that you really, really love to do on a day-to-day basis? Because that all forms as part of how you look to grow your business, because if you're not waking up every single morning with massive amounts of passion and really, really wanting to hit each day running because there are certain elements of the job that you don't enjoy doing, then you need to leverage those out. You need to delegate those to somebody else. That can often dictate the way in which you want to recruit.

If you are looking to recruit, then you need to write out your process and a list of tasks you want your recruit to complete for you to free up your time to focus on the valuable tasks. This is the ideal starting point for mortgage recruitment.

12 Lessons from 12 years in Business!

8th of November 2018 was my 12-year anniversary of being self-employed, a business owner, sole trader, entrepreneur, in the mortgage industry. 

Here I share the top tips I have learnt from being self-employed for over 12 years in the mortgage industry.

The 12 lessons from 12 years in mortgages and financial services:

1. Mindset is the number 1 element to your success.
2. Work hard but work smart and learn to delegate.
3. Listening to audiobooks and podcasts.
4. You need to surround yourself with like-minded people. You need a good peer group.
5. Do not fear failure, and I know that is massively hard to believe, but if you fear failure, it's going to stop you being able to move forward.
6. Learn to pivot. Don't change lanes.
7. I have developed a three-strike rule or a three-idea rule, and it immediately makes me act.
8. Keep an eye on your profit and loss and focus on the tasks that are going to help make you money.
9. Use social media to build a personal brand and stick a rocket up your marketing. Marketing is an investment. It's not an expense.
10. Make a 1% improvement every single day in your mindset, in the jobs you get done, in your focus, in your marketing, in your branding and so on is 365% a year.
11. Take stock of how far you've come in your journey.
12. Always remain grateful.

These lessons are valued no matter where you are in your mortgage journey.

In this episode Gary discusses how important it is to stay on track with your plans and how part of your plan should be to level up.

The first step to levelling up yourself and your business is to get out of working 'in the business’ and work more ‘on the business’. This will give you time and the mental energy to plan out how to grow the business as well as improve yourself at the same time.

You have to focus on who you need to be and why you want to be that person. Ask yourself what is going to move you from where you are now to where you want to be? What can you do to improve your business and be consistent with it? Answering these questions is a must if you want to improve your business.
