Nonprofit mergers and acquisitions aren't a sign of weakness—they're a powerful strategy for long-term viability and community impact. In this leading edge conversation, we bring together two sector leaders: Tim Davis, President and Managing Partner of Glick Davis and Associates, and Jeffrey R. Wilcox, CEO and Founder of Interim Executives Academy. Together with host Julia Patrick, they chart a bold roadmap for organizational transformation through strategic partnerships, timely interim leadership, and cultural integration.As Jeffrey begins, “A sustainable nonprofit must first be viable. And to be viable, you must be survivable.” He challenges nonprofits to move beyond survival thinking and embrace strategic collaboration before financial or leadership crises strike. Tim Davis builds on that, offering a real-world example of three regional nonprofits merging their missions to secure larger grants and extend their reach: “Instead of three groups asking for $10,000 each, they made a unified ask for $100,000—and won.”The conversation digs into the uncomfortable truths of nonprofit M&A—ego, fear, and lack of information—but offers actionable strategies. Tim emphasizes that success is cultural, not just financial: “Unless you build the culture between organizations, one side is always unhappy.” Meanwhile, Jeffrey explains the unique power of interim leaders to guide organizations through this kind of transformation: “Interims help people reach the conclusion themselves—it becomes their idea, their ownership.”This episode doesn't just present M&A as a lifeline for nonprofits in distress—it reframes it as a proactive, bold strategy for those who want to own their future. With funding shifts, demographic changes, and leadership transitions accelerating across the sector, Tim and Jeffrey argue that now is the time to build viable, mission-driven collaborations that will withstand what's ahead.Whether you're a board member, CEO, or funder, this conversation will challenge your assumptions and equip you with the mindset and tools to explore mergers—not out of desperation, but from a place of strength. 00:00:00 Welcome and introduction of guests 00:01:50 What is transitional leadership and why it matters 00:03:14 How Glick Davis supports nonprofit mergers and turnarounds 00:04:23 Rethinking sustainability: viability vs survivability 00:06:02 Why nonprofits must start M&A talks sooner 00:08:10 Real example: nonprofits merging for financial literacy impact 00:10:13 Navigating ego and mission in M&A conversations 00:11:35 The interim leader's role in M&A facilitation 00:13:04 Educating stakeholders before merger decisions 00:15:55 Secret sauce of nonprofit M&A: culture building 00:18:27 Knowing when your org is no longer viable 00:22:54 What great interim leaders really do #NonprofitLeadership #StrategicMergers #InterimExecutivesFind us Live daily on YouTube!Find us Live daily on LinkedIn!Find us Live daily on X: @Nonprofit_ShowOur national co-hosts and amazing guests discuss management, money and missions of nonprofits! 12:30pm ET 11:30am CT 10:30am MT 9:30am PTSend us your ideas for Show Guests or Topics: HelpDesk@AmericanNonprofitAcademy.comVisit us on the web:The Nonprofit Show

Tim Davis and Mark Vitner react to the March CPI print, which came in cooler than expected. Mark notes that because Easter comes so late in April, demand was delayed in March, and expects it to pick up more in the summer. Tim says his fear was “the data was already stale,” as forward-looking projections get harder. However, with energy and housing prices declining, it's a “green light” for the Fed to cut rates.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

“This is the sixth fastest correction in the S&P,” says Tim Davis, “we're viewing this as a long-term opportunity.” He thinks there's a good chance that there won't be tariffs enacted in 1H25, with global trade agreements changing by that time. He says the administration is incentivized to “do the hard part” early, well before the election cycle.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

Would you leave a stable, high-paying job at Google to build something that competes with NVIDIA, Intel, and AMD? That's exactly what Tim Davis, co-founder and president of Modular, did. Since then, his company has raised $130M to reimagine AI compute infrastructure — but are AI startups really desperate for a new compute layer? And what's it like to build a startup when your biggest competitors are trillion-dollar giants? In this episode of Fund/Build/Scale, Tim shares his vision for the future of AI compute, why talent is the real key to success, and some of the tough lessons he's learned from three startups. RUNTIME 46:27 EPISODE BREAKDOWN (1:26) “We are building a new accelerated execution platform for compute.” (6:41) “ It will exist all over the place and it already does, but AI will be everywhere that compute is.” (11:18) “ You only you only have so much time in a week. What is the thing that you're best at?” (15:13) “ We have decided to start from the hardest part of the software stack.” (22:44) “For the most talented people in the world, the risk is actually not as great as what you think.” (30:24) “ Growing up in Australia, my view of the of the United States was very much driven from the media and from Hollywood.” (33:26) “ I sat in a room for six weeks and just met everyone that I could. And that really was the beginning of a journey to the United States.” (37:48) “ I still think there's a special place in the Bay Area, and in the United States, there is a different risk appetite.” (40:41) The one question Tim would have to ask the CEO before he'd take a job at someone else's early-stage startup.

Timdavisonline (00:00) All right. Hey everybody, Tim Davis over here, the originators guide.com. Got a question for you today. Are you tired? It's hard to a lot of originators and they're a little tired, right? I mean, it's been rather exhausting, but here's a different question. Are you tired from putting in really good strategic effort or are you tired because mentally you just think about the heel and how big it is to climb every day and you just don't do anything to actually climb that heel. So there's actually two types of tired. There's the tired from really putting in a great effort and you're tired with any day, but you're proud of the fact that you actually put in the effort. And then there's the other kind of tire, which is the mental draining kind where you just feel like the mountain is too big to climb and the odds are too stacked against you. And so you don't do anything, right? You don't create any motion in your life. And so the only emotion that you have left is tiredness and when you're that type of tired it can lead to an immense amount of burnout. Now here's the deal. We all need to take a break, right? We all have to recharge. We all have to replenish that energy that we put out. But you have to ask yourself, you really putting in the effort, right? Because the effort today is a lot more than people realize and it isn't for everybody and that's fine. There's nothing wrong with that. And that's where you have to decide for yourself is Are you putting in the effort or do you even want to put in the effort that's required? Because deals are still happening, right? There are closings. We could pull reports for your city and your backyard and see all the closings that are happening. And if you're not getting your fair share of them, you just have to ask yourself, why is that? Why is that? Am I just allowing the negativity that is plentiful out there? There's plenty of ways to get negativity in your life. It seeks you out. I'm allowing that to creep in and pull me backwards. Or am I hopeful? Am I working on myself, improving myself? Am I hopeful about my business? Am I putting together strategies and plans and really getting excited about what's possible for me and my business and then doing something about it during the week? So if you're tired, I get it. I'm tired too, but I'm tired from putting in an effort, not from worrying. And those are the things that you need to consider. All right, guys, here's what I know. Somebody out there is going to be looking for a mortgage loan today and they're going to be calling the loan officer and applying and going through the terms and all the fun stuff. And if you're not that loan officer, the only difference is you haven't got yourself enough exposure. Go originate and find that loan and talk to that customer and get them locked and have that awesome successful day and get yourself fired up. And if you need some help, we've got an awesome coaching deal. It's $1 for one month. We're going to include four coaching sessions and all of the marketing and scripting and everything that you would need to grow your business. One buck. Theoriginatorsguide.com group coaching. Check us out. Keep listening. Have an awesome day. Talk to you guys real soon. See you. Bye.

Timdavisonline (00:51) All right. Hey everybody. Tim Davis over here, the originators guide.com your home of the fastest coaching tip of the mortgage business. Listen, I don't know if you saw this post floating around Facebook. I've seen several people share it or post it. Here's what it goes. It goes out of the 1.5 million real estate agents, only 87,000 closed 6 million or more volume in 2024. That's less than 6%. So, you know, we talk about, uh, we're all going to average about one closing per year per real estate agent that we know. So we have to know a lot of real estate agents, but I want to talk to you about diversification today and five other sources of business that you need to be working and cultivating for referrals throughout the year. So number one is your database. People that you've closed loans for, people that haven't closed with you, right? Both of those categories. I would even throw in your friends and family into that, right? You need to be working that. You need to have a strategy that consistently works and outr- reaches to your database and has conversations and shares information and earns referral business. Number two, financial planners. I have relationships with financial planners and they are fantastic for referrals. And sometimes loan officers get intimidated by financial planners. We'll do a podcast on the whole going after financial planners soon, but they need to be in your sphere of influence to get referrals from. Number three, CPAs. CPAs are a great source of referrals. We're getting ready to roll in when I'm cutting this episode. It's in January. Getting ready to roll in the tax time. How many other clients might need to grab some equity out of their house to pay some tax bills or maybe restructure some things? Relationships with CPAs can be fantastic for your business. Attorneys, specifically divorce attorneys. Unfortunately, the divorce rate in America is well over 50%. So having relationships with divorce attorneys can be a real good source of business and it can be a real good service to those people that are going through those difficult times. And lastly, builders, right? Builders are out there. They are making it happen. And do you have relationships or can you build a relationship with a builder? So those are five other categories that you need to work into your business plan in 2025 and become proactive about going after those sources. Okay guys, because here's what I know. 5.4 million is the projection of deals gonna be done this coming year. How much of the share are you gonna get? Because here's the thing, somebody today is looking for a mortgage loan. I don't know if they're gonna get it from you. I hope they do, but you have to make yourself available. You have to go and originate that loan. Go find it, make it happen, get it locked in, have that successful day, keep listening to the podcast, and here's the deal. If you want step-by-step strategies and accountability, we have a group coaching program and we're offering a full month, which is four coaching calls for only $1. Go over to theoriginatorsguide.com, check it out, get involved. Let's have an awesome 2025 together. Keep listening. Talk to you guys real soon. See you.

Hey everybody, Tim Davis over here, the originator's guide, fastest coaching in the mortgage industry. Listen, I got your coaching tip today and it is a good one. They're all good. What am I talking about? All the coach tips are really good. You got to apply them. Let me tell you about today's coaching tip is I see too many loan officers and mortgage companies for that matter, and they share way too much on social media. Like they give away everything, right? They put a post up and it tells the realtor or the consumer everything that they would need to know. And therefore they, the consumer may or may not call you. And today I just want to talk to you about the art of giving enough information to generate a phone call or a lead inquiry, because what you want is to get on the phone with somebody because conversations equal contracts. And if you need to know more about conversations equal contract, go over to Amazon. wrote a book on it called conversations equal to contracts, the art of turning small talk into big opportunities. And I see too many people and they give away the entire farm. Right? I read their social media posts. I'm like, okay, got everything I need to know. No need to talk to you. And there's, there's an art between giving away enough information so that people need to request the rest of it and giving away so much that they don't even need to talk to you. Last week in our coaching, uh, we put together, this is a great example of what I'm talking about. We put together a social media post and, uh, this coming week, I'm gonna learn exactly how many leads I've been hearing from the coaching clients over the week. that they've been generating leads. It's well past 200. 200 leads. It could be in the 300s now. I'll learn this week when we have our call. Of leads that came through social media, because we shared enough to get the audience to say, yeah, give me the rest. I need that information. And from doing that, the audience raises their hand. We provide the information. And then we call them, call them and get involved in a conversation. I started doing my calls Friday. By the time Friday came around, had 37 leads, 37. And so I started doing my calls on Friday. My second call resulted in a client. Okay. My first one, totally good, man. Just checking in and we re-engaged and I bet you'll be a referral in the next 30 to 60 days off that because we just bought more top of mind awareness. But the second call, it ended in a referral right on the spot, right on the spot. And here's the thing. She has two favorite lenders. that's been she's been doing business with forever. And I know both of them. I know both personally. But here's the thing. We put out the offer, she called, she's like, Hey, we're gonna give you guys a shot. So make sure you're not sharing too much on social media. Just enough to get the phone to ring. Alright, guys, you know what I know, somebody in your city is gonna get a mortgage today. They're gonna apply. Just like I happened to me on Friday. What I don't know if they're gonna apply with you. That's your call. Get up, get the phone ring and talk to people. Find like that loan, have a successful day. And if you need coaching, go to theoriginatorsguide.com, click group coaching.

Timdavisonline (00:51.174) All right. Hey everybody, Tim Davis here, the originators guide. Want to talk to you today about something we all need. We all need, we've got to make this thing happen. It's called exposure. We have got to get ourselves more exposure, especially in markets like that we're in right now. We've got to know more people and more importantly, we got to get more people to know us and it is a uphill battle, right? And so we've got to be really intentional every day of growing our network. There is always. Timdavisonline (01:19.622) always, always new people to meet, right? And we're in charge of doing that. Like we've got to look in the mirror each and every morning and say, if it is up to be, it is up to me. I got to get myself motivated, fired up, excited, building relationships, getting on the phone, going places, meeting people, working my social media network, creating content. We have got to really be on it. And to some people that seems and feels overwhelming and they just won't do it. And here's the reality. It is, it's a lot of work. Okay. It's a lot of work. Timdavisonline (01:49.714) I record my podcast on the weekends for them to be distributed out all week. I get up at 4.30 in the morning and work 45 minutes on my business before I get the dogs ready and I go to the gym and work out. Cause at eight o'clock it is phone call city, baby. We are on the phones talking to people all day long. I can't spend my day watching some webinar playing on Canva, doing something that's not getting me closer to a conversation. I've got to be in front of people, setting up events, teaching classes. Timdavisonline (02:15.71) That's my daytime hour. So yeah, I have to steal from or borrow from time early in the morning. And it's not going to hurt anybody out there to get up an hour earlier, because I'll tell you right now in markets like this, if you're looking at your pipeline and it's thin, it's because somebody got up an hour earlier and they're working your leads. They're working those agents that you haven't met, or maybe the agents that you have met. Maybe the agents that you're already doing business with that you would tell me, Hey Tim, that relationship's locked down. No, it ain't. No, it ain't. Cause there is somebody out there as Timdavisonline (02:44.884) crafting their pitch, their unique selling proposition, their value added offer, their class, their social media posts, something out there to get that agent's attention and give them some time away from you and with them. Because that's what you're doing every day. There's not some agent that you're meeting that doesn't have a relationship or doesn't know a loan officer. So yeah, exposure is important. And yeah, exposure takes time. Anytime I talk about building a brand, there's three things that you need. You need time invested. You need energy. Timdavisonline (03:13.574) Right? So get some B12 in your life and you're going to need to put some cash in your business. And that's something people don't want to do. Like, well, I don't know about all that Tim. You you need to invest in yourself and your business. Time, energy, money, those three things. You got to find a way to do it. Somebody else will. It's a guarantee. Here's what I know. Somebody in your city is going to get a mortgage today. What I don't know is if they're going to get it from you. You're the only one standing between you and that conversation to get that referral. Make sure you make today productive. Timdavisonline (03:40.584) Find that loan, lock that loan in, have that successful day. Keep listening to the podcast, share it with a friend. If you need coaching, it's $1.30 days over at theoriginatorsguide.com. Go check us out. Appreciate all you guys. Have a great day and I'll talk to you real soon. See you. Bye.

Timdavisonline (00:51.184) All right. Hey everybody, Tim Davis here and today on the coaching tip, I'm going to give you how I use social media to generate a massive amount of leads. And look, there's lots of ways to do it on social media. There's plenty of classes and seminars you can go to, and they're all great. Not taking anything away from them. I just want to tell you what's been working for me. And I know it will work for you because we can put the cookies really low on the shelf. And when we do that, everybody has a chance to eat and win. So here's the deal. It's called social media, not, give me a loan today media. Timdavisonline (01:21.066) And because it's called social media, stick with the social part quite a bit. Probably 90 % of what I post is social related. It's things that I'm doing that I'm having fun with, hobbies, interests, but for me, hands down, it's the pets. I've got two German Shepherds and a Cocker Spaniel. The German Shepherds far and away are social media superstars and I can take a picture and post of the German Shepherds and I can get lots of comments and lots of hits. Here's one thing about social media. One of the things that go viral, why is humor? Timdavisonline (01:51.574) so I posted a picture one day of me and Landry, she's my female German shepherd. went over to Chick-fil-A and she had this wide look in her mouth when I got that bag of chicken nuggets. And I was like, man, this is what happens when you take your best girl out to get some Jesus chicken. Well, that, that post went crazy, right? People were commenting on it. I love Landry and I love Chick-fil-A or whatever the case was. Here's what I do to convert that into. Timdavisonline (02:15.47) referrals and opportunities. actually wrote a book on this called Conversations Equal Contracts. And if you ever come to one of my events, you're going to be saying conversation equal contracts to the point you're going to want to get a tattoo on your forearm that says conversations equal contracts, because it's true. At some point you've got to talk to people, right? You can try to avoid it all day long, but if you're going to win, you've got to have conversations. So these people are commenting on this post and I'm seeing them and I'm like, Hey, I think I'll call this one. And I think I'll call that one. And I literally pick up the phone and call them. Timdavisonline (02:44.76) And lot of times I'll just go to their Facebook profile and if their phone number's in there, it's just two clicks, boom, they're on the phone. And I just have a conversation with them like, Hey Susan, Joe, Bill, how's it going? And they're like, my God, I was just on your social media looking at Landry. And I'm like, yeah, yeah, you know, she's fine. And we just have a conversation and it is strictly relationship building. I'll ask them probing questions, see if there's anything going on. And if I've got a need in my life, I'm going to ask them to help me with it. I might say, Hey, you know what? Timdavisonline (03:14.5) I'm really looking to expand my business right now and meet financial planners. Do you work with a financial planner that you're friends with you'd introduce me to? Always looking for opportunities to grow my business, grow my network. That's how I use social media. I use it to generate outbound phone calls that I'm responsible for. I'm going to pick up the phone. I'm going to call the people that liked, hearted, comment, laughed, all that kind of stuff. You make a good, funny social post, you'll get a lot of hits. Timdavisonline (03:43.344) Call those people, have those conversations. Listen guys, somebody's going to get a loan today in your town. Are they going to get it from you? Probably just one conversation away from making that happen. Make sure you go find, lock that loan, have a successful day. And if you need coaching, check out theoriginatorsguide.com. $1 gets you in the door, 30 days. Check it out. Keep listening. Talk to you guys real soon. See you. Bye.

Timdavisonline (00:51.761) All right. Hey everybody, Tim Davis here. Going to talk to you today. I can't even talk, right? Going to talk to you today about the power of taking massive imperfect action. And I was just an example of that right now. See, I could go back and record the beginning of this and make it all pretty and clean and all the things, but you know what the reality is? The secret to success is speed of implementation and getting things done really quickly. Well, when you're doing that, you're not going to be perfect. Nothing is perfect. Timdavisonline (01:20.255) Right? And so I see loan officers all the time and they hold back and they wait because they need the perfect script or the perfect thing to say to the real estate agent or the perfect class to teach or the perfect, whatever it might be. And what I have found over the years is the way to get closer to perfect, which doesn't exist is just to get started right now. Right? Call that agent, call that agent. You don't need the perfect script. In fact, a lot of times I think scripting can be Timdavisonline (01:46.367) something that holds us back because we're hoping that we're going to have this magic conversation and somehow, miraculously, they're just going to drop a deal in our lap. And if we look around the marketplace right now, there are fewer deals out there. mean, 47 % of the agents last year didn't even sell one home. So you could be talking to somebody that might not have sold a home recently. Maybe they don't have any leads. And that's OK. You've got to play the long game in this business. And the long game is all about building long-term relationships, not just quick hits.

Timdavisonline (00:51.624) Hey everybody, it's Tim Davis. Hope you liked the new intro, right? We're always looking to tweak, always looking to upgrade. Listen to the originators guide, podcast, your coaching tip in under three minutes or less. want to talk to you last week. I was down in Louisiana, Baton Rouge, and then we flew over to Beaumont, Texas. We did two personal branding mastery events for real estate agents. The room was full of agents, right? It's the beginning of the year. They want to learn. So I want to give you some tips about. Timdavisonline (01:19.304) hosting your own events. And that's your coaching tip today. Number one, people would rather be entertained than educated. They don't want to go to some boring lunch and learn. I hear that all the time from real estate agents that come to our class. They're like, thank God, this was actually the most fun I ever had. get invited to these all the time. They're super boring. There's not great information. People want to be entertained and educated, right? So if you can mix the two together, that'd be huge for your business. Timdavisonline (01:47.55) Here's a quick tip on that. I actually took a six month comedy class on improvised comedy and that really taught me how to think fast on my feet and write good jokes. remember they want to be entertained and educated. Do both of those. Your events are going to be a huge success. Number two about the events, get personal, right? I go around and talk to everybody before I actually give my presentation. I go up to them, I introduce myself, I ask them their name. Timdavisonline (02:16.744) how long they've been in real estate, what got them into real estate, how things are going for them, a little bit about their family. I make a personal interaction. It gets them more engaged for the day and it also gets me more comfortable as well. And then the third tip for your events, if you're not doing a survey and asking for referrals at the end and just hoping that you gave great information and they loved you to death and they're just going to automatically send you referrals, you will be leaving money on the table. Here's exactly what I mean. Timdavisonline (02:46.42) In Baton Rouge, we got $9.3 million worth of referrals simply because we ask. In Beaumont, Texas, we got over $4 million in referrals, a little lower loan size, that's okay, simply because we ask at the end of our presentation. That's three tips. Make your presentations go better. Go out there and get it done. Remember to always say, somebody's looking for a loan today, might as well get that loan for you. Go find it, go lock it in, have an awesome day, keep listening to the podcast. If you're looking for coaching, we've got a great deal right now. Timdavisonline (03:30.56) You can go over to theoriginatorsguide.com, sign up for our group coaching for only $1 and it might as well be free, right? You'll see this and more of what we're actually doing to generate business. All right guys, have an awesome day. Keep listening, share with a friend. Talk to you guys real soon. See you. Bye.

Timdavisonline (00:01.762) Hey, hey, what is up everybody? Tim Davis over here, the originators guide.com podcast, home of your coaching tip in under three minutes or less. And today is a little bit about the state of the industry. And I don't know if you've noticed this, but I certainly have seen it is there is a wide gap between the haves and the have nots in our industry. In other words, you're a loan officer that's got quite a bit of business or you're a loan officer trying to struggle to tweak out one, two, three loans a month. Timdavisonline (00:29.74) And I want to talk about that gap and the difference between the two. Cause I think if you want to have more consistent business, if you want to close five, six, seven, 10 loans a month, you can do that. And you can do that in this marketplace because it's proven other people are doing that. So the question is, that where's the gap? mean, how do we fill that gap? What is it? And what do we need to do to fill the gap? I think number one is if you're at the lower end of the spectrum, resist the urge to blame the market for your circumstance. Timdavisonline (01:00.11) Because loans close every day. You know this, I know this. They just may not be closing with you. So how do we bridge the gap to get them to close with you? Well, that is on the person in the mirror. You have to look at yourself every day and go, where's my loan? If someone closed a loan today and it wasn't with you, it's simply a matter of like you weren't in that situation. You didn't know that real estate agent, you hadn't talked to him in a long while, you didn't ask. Timdavisonline (01:26.818) Like you didn't put yourself in a position to win that business. And so that's how you fill the gap. Like you decide and become intentional that another day in your industry is not going to pass without you making yourself visible, making yourself known. And I don't mean just sitting around typing on a keyboard on social media. That's great. I get a lot of business from social media, but when's the last time that you were actually at an event shaking hands? Timdavisonline (01:52.876) Have you crafted your unique selling proposition that 60 second commercial, like when you meet a real estate agent, are you saying something really impactful? What's your value add? how are you helping the agent? Right? You're just going in with your handout. Are you really helping them? And how consistent are you at building that relationship with the agent? Guys, I'm telling you right now, if you were to pull the numbers of closings in your market, I guarantee you they're down from where the peak was. That's true. But if you're not getting your fair share, the only person to blame, Timdavisonline (02:22.67) person in the mirror. Now's the day to take, take a change and do something about that. All right, guys, listen, if you want some help, you can go to the originators guide.com and we are giving away our coaching. Just like it's practically free. It's only $1 for 30 days.

We'll talk to you real soon. See you.

Timdavisonline (00:02.338) Hey, hey, what is up everybody? Tim Davis over here, the originators guide.com your home of your coaching tip in under three minutes or less. And today we're tackling the conversation ever lone officer faces out there today. It's rate objections, right? And I want to talk to you about how to respond with confidence and shift that conversation to what really matters. Right? So here's the truth. If you let the conversation stay focused on rates, you're going to be playing on defense and that's not where you want to be. Yeah. Timdavisonline (00:30.998) Rates are part of the mortgage, but they're not the whole story. So when your client says, I'm looking for the lowest rate possible, here's some ways that you can confidently guide that conversation. Number one, you want to acknowledge and then reframe, right? So you start by acknowledging their concern so it shows that you're listening. So for example, you can say, totally understand wanting the best rate. That's certainly important. But let me ask you, is the lowest rate your biggest priority or are you looking at the best over? Timdavisonline (00:58.838) overall fit for your financial goals, and even more importantly, the best monthly payment that you can afford. Because at the end of the day, people shop payments. That's what they're really asking you is like, how low can I get my payment? Everything's so expensive these days. Milk, bread, eggs. I got to have a great payment. Then number two, you can shift to the cost involved and Timdavisonline (01:21.546) actually how the payment is gonna work out, right? So maybe there's a way that you can structure the loan with a little higher rate that maybe includes upfront mortgage insurance, right? Or it's rolled into the rate, in other words, and that provides a lower monthly payment than if it's financed on top of the deal, right? So maybe that's a way. Maybe you can use discount points paid by the seller to permanently buy down the interest rate so that the payment is lower, right? That's where we wanna be. That's what they're looking for is the payment, right? Timdavisonline (01:49.006) And then number three, share a success story, right? Talk about a previous situation where maybe you used discount points paid by the seller to lower the interest rate, maybe a whole percent or more. And that resulted in a $472 lower payment for the client, right? But most importantly, I want you to end with confidence. So when you make your presentation, as you wrap it up, you want to say, hey, does that make sense? Right? I mean, I want to make sure, here's what I recommended based on your goals. Timdavisonline (02:17.102) Right? So let's make sure this mortgage fits into your life, not just your interest rate expectations. Right? You want to make sure you end with confidence. We're going to get these rate objections, right? And certainly people are out there. You see them all the time. They get a lower rate and they pay these exorbitant cost. You want to get in front of this. And that's the way to go about doing it. If you want to learn more about how we're handling objections for rate and actually getting more clients in the door, our coaching program is running a special. It's only $1 for 30 days. mean, Timdavisonline (03:13.086) Heck, I'm sure you could afford that. But you get involved, meet every Monday.

Timdavisonline (00:01.518) Hey, what is up everybody? Tim Davis over here. The originators guide.com podcast home of your coaching tip in under three minutes or less. Hey guys, today I want to talk to you about consistency and not falling for the new shiny objects all the time. mean, it's something that happens a lot to us in this business and we're sort of conditioned that way. You know, growing up in America, we're taught constantly that we need Timdavisonline (00:28.194) the new colors for fall and the new computer and the new iPhone and new, new, new, new, new. And if we don't have the new, then we're missing out and FOMO, which is the fear of missing out is a real big factor for a lot of people. And so we're just conditioned to get stuff new all the time. And so we're constantly on the lookout for new that it's going to improve our lives and it's going to change your life. And it's going to do all these things for our business. But I want to tell you a story about the power of consistency and exposure, because I think most Timdavisonline (00:58.222) people in our industry, most loan officers, they just need more exposure. More people need to know who they are and it's up to that loan officer to create that exposure. And so when I was getting started, I was told that, you if I taught classes to real estate agents, it was a great idea and it was a great way to grow their business. And I thought, sure, I'll go do that. Now I didn't have any formal training on speaking and presenting and I'd fumbled my way through it and try to figure it out and that kind of stuff. But Timdavisonline (01:23.982) At the time I created a class called 60 second marketing and it was about a 20 minute class and it was really teaching people how to answer the question. What do you do for a living? So what does a realtor say when they're asked what they do for a living and how can it be impactful and different? And more importantly, how can what I say create a referral from the person that I'm talking to? So I created this fill in the blank scripts in this class called 60 second marketing, how to get more referrals from your networking. Timdavisonline (01:52.084) And I started to put this class out there and it was a hit. People liked it. And I taught that same class in Nashville for two solid years. you know, coworkers and people in the industry thought I was crazy. They're like, don't you have any new material? Like you should need something new. And I'm like, why do I need anything new? I keep getting requests to go to speak at real estate offices and luncheons. Timdavisonline (02:16.215) for this topic, like this is my topic, like why would I change it? It's working, it's getting me in the front door, it's creating influence, it's helping the agents, it's generating referrals. You guys keep trying to find new stuff all the time and I'm just doing the same. And even this week, I'm gonna be in Baton Rouge in Beaumont, Texas teaching my personal branding mastery class to several hundred agents at each one of these events. And I've been teaching that class for 15, over 15 years now. And other people will be like, don't you get tired of it? I'm like, it works. Timdavisonline (02:46.272) So the coaching tip is pick what works and stick with it. Keep diving deep. If you want more help in your business, we're running a special right now. You can get coaching for only a dollar, dollar. And it's like free. All you have to do is check out the originators guide.com. Go to the group coaching section, sign up for a dollar.

Timdavisonline (00:01.658) Hey, what is up everybody? Tim Davis over here. The originators guide.com podcast home of your coaching tip in under three minutes or less. Cause today I want to talk with you about controlling your mind's expectations and stories that develop. And here's what I really mean by that. we get opportunities to meet with real estate agents or real estate groups, or even, you know, owners of real estate firms, managers, team leads, whatever the case might be. Timdavisonline (00:31.586) And that's exciting, right? And it should be. You should be wanting to expand your business and meet new people all the time, right? It's critical to continue to grow your network and get known as they say out there, right? So that's super exciting that you get those opportunities. But here's where I want you to be really careful. And I think this happens to all of us way too frequently. We get these opportunities and then our subconscious starts to develop this story, right? And the story is something like, Timdavisonline (00:58.21) Hey, you got this meeting and you're going to impress them and they're going to send you all of their business and it's going to be such a big account for you. And it's going to be amazing. Don't screw this up, you know, make sure you have everything together, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. And so we get this great story going on in our minds and we go on the meetings and you know, the meetings are great successes and the agents maybe say, you know, we're going to send you your, business and get super excited. And then things kind of fall flat, right? They go silent and nothing happens right away. Timdavisonline (01:28.398) And maybe, maybe even you have gotten to the point where you're getting a good follow-up system in place, right? That's probably something we all need to work on. I need to do a podcast on that. But let's say that you do have a good follow-up system in place and things are going well. And then a few weeks later, you know, no referrals have come in. And now all of a sudden that story's getting interrupted. It's like, Oh, what? mean, I thought that meeting went well and they said they would send me business and now I'm not getting anything. Timdavisonline (01:55.202) You get on social media and you see that they've been tagged in the closing with a competitor down the street. And you're like, that's it. That's it. See, I am not falling for this anymore. And it just ticks you off. Here's the thing guys. Our research has shown us that by and large, more than 90 % of the real estate agents you come in contact with are going to close one deal per year per law and officer. And if you're not careful with these stories, you're going to manufacture some story. Timdavisonline (02:24.074) only to have yourself let down and then give up on the pursuit of the relationship. So the coaching tip today is play the long game, not the short game. Stay in the relationship. Keep adding value. Keep educating, appreciating, having conversations and asking. Your hard work will pay off. Don't give up on somebody. in for the long run. That's the tip today. Listen, guys, if you won't help building your business, got a special run in $1. Get you coaching for 30 days. Timdavisonline (03:08.494) should go check it out, theoriginatorsguide.com. Love to have you apart. We're doing big things this year. Keep listening to the podcast.
