Don’t Let Shoppers Keep You Up at Night – Let’s Talk

by

I came across a story the other day on a Facebook group. A loan officer was stressing over a prospect quoting a super-low rate from another company.

They were looking for scripts to reel the borrower back in, but here’s the thing: by the time they’re shopping, it’s often too late for a script to work. This kind of stuff can drive you nuts, right?

Here’s my take: it’s all about the first conversation you have with them. (Don’t worry—I’ve got a killer script for that below!) But before that, let’s talk strategy.

I’ve found that for every 4 leads, we close 1 loan. My team and I have closed tens of thousands of loans (literally), so this formula has proven itself.

About half of the leads are approvable, and we close around 50% of those.

The rest? They either decide not to move forward or they shop around.

Instead of chasing shoppers like herding cats, we focus on what actually works: Getting More High-Quality Referred Leads.

We’ve developed 4 proven strategies to do just that—zero cold calling, no gimmicks, just solid, actionable tactics. And I’d love to share them with you on a quick Zoom call… for free. ☺

Now, about that script for shoppers: use it before they start shopping. Here’s what it sounds like:

“Ok Bob and Sue, based on our conversation, it looks like your monthly payment will be $[insert], with a down payment of $[insert], and total funds to close at $[insert]. If I can deliver on those numbers, will you commit to me being your lender so my team and I can get started to ensure we close on time?”

If they say yes, they’re in.

If not, you’ve identified a shopper and saved yourself a ton of time.

But here’s the kicker: even with the best scripts, the real key is getting more referred leads.

Let’s connect and talk about how to get more of those high-quality referrals.

You’ll never let one deal going sideways ruffle your feathers again when you’ve got a steady flow of leads.
