#TwoforTuesday – I love doing these videos on guidelines and hope you all get stuff out of them.  Today I highlight the few changes that Fannie Mae introduced on 1/30/2018.  It is awesome to see the work that FNMA did in the past in collecting data is coming to fruition.  The first announcement and change to lending guidelines comes just in time for tax season.  The second in perfect timing as home values have gone up and even the national loan limits have been increased.  And as a bonus one of the hardest loans to close for property is updated; Condo’s!!

Today I am updating my CRM and organizing lists to help myself do more timely follow up and email marketing campaigns.  There has to be a management of information (just like Fannie) that you have as a sales person too.  Now’s the time to organize for the year.  Merge your past client lists, update your prospects, take a look at who’s opening your emails, reading your blog, or visiting your website.  These are the things that make a difference in sales success, I suggest you do the same.  I also bet you find an “app” that comes of the follow up, or because you strike while the iron was hot.  (they were on your website yesterday).  Use information to help you close the sale, just like Fannie is using the information to close the loans.

I ♥ Sales, Marketing and Mortgages.  Not sure which more, but they all go hand in hand in my book 🙂  As a result this week I am helping any LO that wants to develop a fan page on Facebook take their social selling to a new level.  Want to #LevelUP?  Click below, I’ve got the BLUEPRINT waiting: The BLUEPRINT to SOCIAL SELLING is HERE! #SocialSellingwithShawn – #SellWell
