What if you're not building a business—you're just building a job you can't walk away from?  Most brokers never think about selling their business—until they're forced to. Doug Adlam did the opposite: before closing a single deal, he sat down and planned his exit. In this episode, Doug shares what it really takes to build a mortgage business that's scalable, valuable, and eventually sellable. With experience in brokering, coaching, tech, and corporate leadership, Doug breaks down the real reasons most brokers can't exit—and how to fix it. Whether you want to sell someday or just want a business that runs without you, this episode will help you think—and build—like a true business owner. What We'll Cover: Systems, Process, People – The 3 pillars of a scalable and sellable mortgage business. Exit Starts Now – Why planning your exit before you “need to” gives you more options and freedom. Stop Hiring Clones – Why hiring people just like you limits growth, innovation, and transferability. The Google Review Trap – Why 5-star reviews don't mean your business is delivering a 5-star experience—and how to find your blind spots. Exit Options That Work – How brokers have successfully sold to kids, employees, partners, or outside buyers—and what to avoid. You don't need to sell your business tomorrow—but you do need to build like you could. That mindset shift will change everything.

He's doing it with old-school fundamentals and ruthless consistency updated for the modern market.

Plus, how to hire a VA team that repurposes one 15–20 minute video into a week's worth of social content and newsletter touchpoints.3️⃣ The 4:00 AM routine, journaling, gratitude, and planning rituals that keep top producers sharp, and how Larry expanded from VA specialist into Non-QM, DSCR, bank statement, and foreign national loans—plus how he uses stories and lunch & learns so Realtors and CPAs actually know what he can solve.Books Mentioned in This EpisodeBecoming Supernatural: How Common People are Doing the Uncommon – Dr. Joe DispenzaNinja Selling – Larry KendallGivers Gain: The BNI Story – Dr. Ivan MisnerABOUT TIM BRAHEEMWith more than 25 years of experience as a highly successful mortgage professional, industry leader, educator, and life coach, Tim Braheem is committed to engaging with people on a deep level and helping them uncover the barriers they have placed in the way of having the level of success they deserve in both their business and personal lives.FOLLOW Instagram ► https://www.instagram.com/tbraheem/LinkedIn ► https://www.linkedin.com/in/timbraheemTHE LOAN ATLASJOIN ► https://go.theloanatlas.com/membership FOLLOWInstagram ► https://www.instagram.com/theloanatlas/YOUTUBE ► https://www.youtube.com/@LoanAtlas----------

What if there's a better way to grow your mortgage career—one that fits your strengths, not just what others are doing?   In this episode, I break down the five distinct paths I've seen brokers use to build successful mortgage businesses. Each path comes with its own pros, cons, and hidden traps, and choosing the right one can save you years of wasted effort. We'll cover: Banker to Broker – Why learning at the bank can be a great start, and what challenges arise when you finally have a full “golf bag” of lenders. Sales-Only Lead Gen Shops – How high-volume sales roles sharpen your closing skills, but why you'll need to learn marketing to succeed solo. Assistant to Broker – The pros of deep underwriting knowledge, and the big hurdle: building sales skills to generate your own business. Ad-Based Entry – The rarest (and toughest) path, requiring mastery of paid ads and conversion systems to create a scalable lead flow. Referral-Based Business – The most sustainable and scalable path, leveraging your network and partnerships to build a high-quality, high-conversion pipeline. Every path can work—but each requires different skills and mindsets to thrive. Choose the one that aligns with your strengths, and commit to mastering the gaps.   Follow me on Instagram: www.instagram.com/scottpeckford/ I Love Mortgage Brokering: www.ilovemortgagebrokering.com Find out more about BRX Mortgage: www.whybrx.com Subscribe to my 3-2-1 Thursday Email I Love Mortgage Brokering is in partnership with Ownwell.  To see how top brokers are keeping clients engaged and generating leads from their database, visit ownwell.ca/scott.
