morsystems: Happily Married Online: Blog and Website
- 08/22/11 04:35 PM
Real Estate professional's online strategies vary, but one rule remains constant: If you only offer a blog and/or social media websites, your online credibility suffers. Branding yourself as an individual is important, and offering valuable information to viewers helps, but the final step in gaining a true follower is directing visitors from your blog to your professional website, where there's valuable professional information they are searching for and web tools they want to use. Don't get me wrong, your blog, glimpses of your personal life, and pics of you with your family are important parts of the equation, but in the end, … (9 comments)

morsystems: Free e-mail marketing at its finest, yes, it's for YOU!
- 04/20/11 03:04 PM
So if you're on activerain there's a good chance you've thought about email marketing but maybe you just didn't know the benefits. I'm here to tell you, email marketing brings me more roi than any postcard, magazine ad or tradeshow I've ever done. Companies like iContact and Constant Contact make it easy to email your clients/prospects/referral partners with quality visually stunning emails. I personally have used Constant Contact for years to send our clients newsletters and our prospects updates. They now have competition with iContacts new offering: A free version of their services if you send to a list of 500 … (8 comments)
morsystems: If your email were a novel, great advice for your emails
- 04/08/11 06:01 AM
If Your Email Were A Novel by Mike May Writers embarking on a new work do not just sit down at a keyboard and start pecking out the great American novel. Storytelling is a craft, and the act of actually writing a novel is usually preceded by months of researching, planning, sketching and vetting. And after the writing the editing begins, a task as onerous and essential as the initial pen to paper -- er, pixel to screen. There is a lot of process and training required to elevate writing to art. Yes writers have a gift, but it's a gift … (0 comments)
morsystems: Brand Yourself Now before it's too late
- 09/17/10 08:58 AM
With all that is currently happening to mortgage brokers, loan officers, lenders, and legislation, you must take a few steps now to possibly save your client base in the future. I see a trend with loan officers where they have to change mortgage brokers, switch companies, or join a branch. What happens to their clients after that move can be devastating. You see, they've been using the company email address, and directing clients to the company website. What now? They've moved, their website is down, and their email doesn't work. Their old clients now think the worst. My suggestions for individual … (1 comments)

Social media is a must, but where do you direct prospects from there? Do you generate leads straight from social media? Do you direct them to your professional website?

Social media is great for getting found in google searches, getting in front of the faces you normally may not have access to, and for prospects to do … (0 comments)

You have your blog, twitter, facebook, linkedin, and website. You scour your friends for more friends on facebook and twitter, update your linkedin, and direct people to your website. Wow, now half the day is gone. There's one thing to remember as you friend people, follow people, and update your status, LOCAL. Sure you can do loans in multiple states, or in your whole state, but what is your true area of influence? All this technology is meant for you to get in the "top of mind" status of those who can use your services, yes, but lets remember your neighborhood … (5 comments)

morsystems: Don't direct your marketing efforts to an outdated website
- 03/31/10 06:19 AM
Your website is your new first impression. Your prospects will judge your professionalism and trustworthiness based on your website. Most mortgage websites today are outdated and unprofessional. Prospects abandon an unprofessional website in search of a more credible one! Outdated, unprofessional designs include flash intros, website music, shallow content, and requiring them to complete a form at every turn. These elements all discourage visitors and bring down your credibility as a professional. Even worse, flash intros actually act like a locked door to search engines trying to index your website. The flash intros make it hard for google and others to … (4 comments)

morsystems: Mortgage Brokers: you have an advantage over big banks, use it!
- 01/28/10 07:29 AM
Brokers, you have an advantage over big banks if you give some freedom to your loan officers. Use it! Most of the large banks don't allow their loan officers to advertise ~ this means no individual website, no postcards, etc. for the bank LOs. Too bad for them, but this is great for you! If you're a broker and have a team of loan officers, how do they actively market themselves? Use this advantage and let your team advertise themselves as individuals. They really should be, it's better for your business when they do so. Get your loan agents to bring … (3 comments)
morsystems: Please Advise PLEASE ADVISE Please Advise
- 01/21/10 04:37 AM
Does anyone else find this phrase at the end of an email to be redundant? If someone asks me a question in an email, I don't also need to be reminded to answer that question with a "Please Advise" at the end. I'll go as far as to say I find it irritating unless we were to make a drinking game out of it. Hey office, whenever anyone emails you "Please Advise", DRINK! Who started this terrible fad anyways? It sounds like something a lawyer would write at the end of their email. I find it to be less professional and … (10 comments)

morsystems: Simple but overlooked - linking your activerain with your website
- 11/24/09 07:15 AM
Some of the most simple things can be overlooked. I evaluate my client's websites and constantly find easy things for them to do to increase their visibility online, and gain credibility online. I love activerain for this reason. Activerain gets great Google search results for people's names and their business name searches. It's great for your activerain profile to be found so people can read about you and read your blog, but where from there? They could fill out a form to contact you which can be intimidating, or they can click on your website link to go to your website … (4 comments)

- 11/04/09 05:23 AM
So I had to write a blog announcing Barry's seminar in my home town. We're sponsoring the event and we picked out the coolest spot, a hawaiian steakhouse restaurant!! This seminar isn't about appeasing upset loan officers with rounded edged it'll be ok speech. This seminar will teach loan officers to actually know what they are doing, know what they are talking about, and better evaluate where they think the market it headed in a short term and long term way. He'll also be touching on new regulations and changes in the mortgage industry, so many people have questions, and Barry … (2 comments)
morsystems: Keep your website up to date
- 08/25/09 11:18 AM
Your website needs to gain you credibility. It needs to stay fresh to do so. Have a spot on your homepage where you announce new rates, new programs, new announcements that will be of interest to your prospects and referral partners. Just like your blog, update it often. Perhaps it's dated with a teaser headling that links to a custom webpage with more detailed information. To help your search engine rankings, always throw in a keyphrase or two in your updates. A good example of a keyphrase would be, "We specialize in Sacramento homes, interest rates are low, so take advantage … (0 comments)
