Episode 623

When you're ready to see the routine Justin is talking about, go to GetMoreLoans.com. Carl and the team will walk you through the same structured process he uses and show you exactly how it works, whether you end up becoming a member or not.

Welcome to Loan Officer Freedom, the #1 podcast in the country for loan officers, hosted by Carl White.

In this episode, Carl sits down with Justin St. Clair, a Eugene, Oregon loan officer and sales manager who closed roughly $60 million across 150 units last year while helping lead a branch doing hundreds of millions in volume. Justin shares how getting started on a top producer's team early in his career helped him build the right habits fast and set the foundation for long term growth.

Justin breaks down the single discipline that keeps his referral partners loyal and engaged: a clearly defined Top 40 list and a simple weekly rhythm that never lets relationships go cold. He explains why most loan officers lose business without realizing it, how the 21 day rule quietly costs referrals, and why consistency beats charisma every time.

They also dig into why many loan officers have enough leads but still struggle to scale, including slow speed to lead, lack of structure, and trying to do everything themselves. Justin shares how systems, delegation, and empowering your team unlock growth, along with practical advice on what to fix first if you are closing two loans a month and want to move to the next level.
