670: The Fastest Way to Go Broke as a Mortgage Broker (And What Top Producers Do Instead)


Listen Later

What if your biggest growth strategy is actually the thing that’s holding your business back?

In this episode, I break down the most common mistake new (and even seasoned) brokers make: saying yes to every deal, every partner, and every opportunity.

It’s a fast track to burnout—and a slow road to profitability.

I’ll show you what top producers do differently: how they get clear on who they serve, what they say no to, and how that focus leads to more volume, more referrals, and less stress.

What We Cover:

  • Why Being for Everyone is a Trap – How generalist brokers hit a ceiling fast.
  • The Power of Positioning – Why top producers pick a niche—and get paid more for it.
  • Profit Killers to Avoid – Files, partners, and platforms that drain your time and energy.
  • No-Go List Strategy – How writing down what you won’t do can unlock better deals.
  • Say No, Grow Fast – The mindset shift that turns “less” into “more.”
