Increased sales skills effectiveness

One of the things we don’t have to tell you is that the business of originating reverse mortgages is challenging. Some see new sales opportunities.  Others say it is time to get back to basics.

  1. Hi Shannon, another excellent video of important “Back To Basics” information for us loan officers. I will listen to it several times throughout this week.

    I read an article by Tom Kelly about 5 or 6 years ago and I remember it being very good. Please tell me where I can get a copy of his latest article that you mentioned in your video this morning.

    Thanks for all your help and excellent information.
