Is Carl White full of Crap? Did he really crack the Facebook code?

Steve Tytler — Thu, 15 Apr 2010 21:27:59 +0000

I spent 3 days in Tampa, Florida last week hanging out with “Mortgage Marketing Animal” Carl White and a couple dozen other top loan producers from around the country.

At the mastermind retreat, Carl showed us his latest “evil scheme” … he has finally “cracked the code” and figured out a way to actually make money with Facebook!

Carl and I were hanging out in his backyard after the retreat and he talked about the results he is getting on Facebook.

Secret to Success: Accountability

Steve Tytler — Fri, 29 Jan 2010 06:11:45 +0000

I can tell you how to DOUBLE your income.

Seriously!

The secret: ACCOUNTABILITY!

How many of us make make plans for the day with the best of intentions of making calls to Realtors, working on our marketing, or other productive money-making activities — but when the day is over we look back on what we accomplished and we did few, if any, of the things we planned to do.

Being “busy” all day is not the same thing as being productive.

Believe me, I know what I’m talking about. My wife will tell you that I am the king of ADD!

So I made a New Year’s Resolution to get an Accountability Partner this year. And I gotta tell you it is working out GREAT!

Here’s how it works … every day (and I mean EVERY day) my accountability partner calls me at 5:00 PM sharp and we have a two-minute conversation that goes like this: I tell him what I did during the day to make me 1) Wealthy 2) Healthy 3) Happy and I tell him what I will do tomorrow for those same 3 goals. He does the same for me.

We do this every day and it has worked wonders for both of us. I feel guilty looking at the clock knowing that David will be calling me at 5:00 PM, ready or not, so I better do everything that I said I was going to do or I will feel bad telling him that I didn’t get it done.

And that’s an important point: You must respect your accountability partner enough to actually feel bad if you have to tell them that you didn’t do what you said you would do. If you don’t care what they think about it, it won’t be nearly as possible.

My buddy and mortgage market mentor Carl White told me at our marketing mastermind meeting in Tampa Bay last December that having an accountability partner will “double your income, guaranteed.” I was a little skeptical that the results would be THAT dramatic, but after one month I’m convinced.

Having an accountability partner has forced me to actually FINISH projects that I have been planning to do for months.

I can’t let “call reluctance” keep me from making my prospecting calls for Realtor referral partners because I have to answer to David every day at 5:00 PM.

So I strongly encourage everybody reading this to find an accountability partner that you like and respect and hold each other accountable for your daily plans. You will be amazed at the results.

Just be sure to follow these simple rules:

1) Call at the same time every day. You can do it at 8:00 AM, 12:00 Noon, 6:00 PM … whatever time works best for both of you. Stick to the schedule so that you never plan a meeting or anything else that would interfere with your daily call.

2) Designate one person as the “caller.” You don’t want to be in a situation where you say “I thought you were going to call” .. “no, I thought YOU were going to call.” David calls me every day (M-F) I never call him. That way we both know what are responsibilites are. I have to be near a phone at 5:00 PM to take his call and he has to make the call every day at 5:00 PM.

3) Keep it SHORT! Two minutes is plenty. No chit-chatting and no criticizing the other person’s plans and/or lack of accomplishments. Now I admit that we sometimes break this rule and comment on each other’s plans, but only if the other person is open to the critism. It’s best to just stick to the facts.

Give this a try for at least a month and I’ll bet you’ll be very surprised at how much more you get accomplished.

Craigslist Mortgage Marketing Still Works!

Steve Tytler — Mon, 05 Oct 2009 21:54:42 +0000

Back in February, I made a couple videos showing a LIVE demonstration of a Craigslist Mortgage Marketing Strategy.

That strategy still works today … but you don’t have to take MY word for it. Read on …

The weekend before last (September 24-27) I spent a few days with about 50 loan orignators from all over the country at Carl White’s Mortgage Marketing Animals mastermind retreat in Lake Tahoe. Here are a few of pictures of the retreat:

At the retreat, I met a loan originator from Tucson, Arizona named Joe Small who joined Mortgage Marketing Animals after watching my Craigslist marketing videos.

It was cool meeting Joe face-to-face for the first time, but what was REALLY cool was when he told me that he got his first purchase loan about TEN MINUTES after joining Mortgage Marketing Animals a few weeks ago!

Watch the video below to hear Joe Small tell how those Craigslist videos that I made back in February got him started making money TODAY:

Off to hang with the Marketing “Animals”

Steve Tytler — Thu, 24 Sep 2009 08:36:36 +0000

I’m off to a lodge in South Lake Tahoe this week to spend a couple days hanging out with my buddy Carl White and about 40 other mortgage “Marketing Animals.”

This is a truly unique marketing group.

Unlike the many mortgage and real estate marketing pitch fests I have been to over the years, at these retreats nothing is sold. We just hang out and listen to a few speakers and stay up all night swapping marketing ideas.

We literally talk marketing 18 hours a day for a couple days. It’s awesome — but draining.

I’ll post a video report when I get back.
