The Mortgage Game, Take a look at our new table-top game project

 A New Way To Generate Clients & Establish Contacts

Every now and then a new idea comes along to help us solve old problems.
In the mortgage industry everyone uses the same methods to generate clients and make new contacts. What if you could generate new clients and make new contacts and have fun doing it?  You can, by using our new tabletop game.

The Mortgage Game takes you on a real-world ride through the ups and downs of the high-finance mortgage world. The idea, like any good capitalistic endeavor, is to survive the pitfalls of the market, earn the most money, become the CEO, stay out of jail and retire wealthy. Most people are curious about all that money that people in the finance world earn but have no clue how they do it. We're rolling out a new table-top board game that will let players experience for themselves what happens. The game has a few elements that resemble monopoly but you'll find it different from anything you've ever played before. People who are fascinated by high-finance will enjoy this game as it gives the player a real-world ride through the ups and downs of the mortgage finance world. Novice players can't help  but have their capitalistic urges stoked. It's designed for 2 to 4 adult players.

Although the main goal of the game is to relax and have fun,  people in the mortgage industry and related vendors can use it to get their name out to generate clients and establish new contacts. You can do this by getting your name, logo or even your picture in the game. 

For example, you can have your logo inserted on certain game squares:

Or, Have your picture  inserted on game Notes:

or have your company name appear on Loan certificates:

You can even have your personal name on a Las Vegas Game Card:

 

Just hand out a version of the game to your clients and contacts. It's a unique marketing tool.  Participating entitles you to appear in 500 games.

Playing the game is a lot of fun and will leave a unique impression on the players. Thousands of people will see your information. It's a clever way to advertise. By the way, some firms that train new MLOs have already inquired about using it for training purposes.

You can look over the game here: https://www.facebook.com/themortgagegame

We're just getting the production of the game set-up so email us with your questions at

Keep It Simple; Hire DE/LAPP Underwriters on a Contract Basis!

Netbranchology.com can help you solve the problem of  having highly qualified DE underwriters available when you need them without actually hiring them as employees. Hiring DE/LAPP Underwriters on a contract basis has some valuable advantages for your bank or mortgage firm. Firstly, it gives you the flexibility of only paying for the work that you need when you need it so it's more economical than hiring a permanent employee. Second, you don't have to expend the resources to hire a long term employee for a short term project; We handle background searches and prequalify the underwriter. Third, since the underwriter is our employee not yours you are not responsible for payroll,  benefits,, bonuses, sick days, 2 week notice, etc. You can, in effect, audition the underwriter to determine if they would be a good long term fit for your operation. We handle all of the details for you. If you find that the underwriter is someone who would be an excellent addition to your staff, you may hire them as a permanent employee. If you're not using this kind of contract employment arrangement you are paying too much.

You can hire contract underwriters for on-site work or on a remote basis; we handle both. Call us today when loan volume exceeds your underwriting capability. We can provide processors too.

We came across the attached white paper that was released by the US treasury in 2011.

It's the blueprint they've devised for your future. Take a deep breath before you read it.

Want to fix government? Let's start the Accountability Party

Sheila Bair, the former head of the FDIC wrote an article that recently appeared in Fortune Magazine. She has proposed one of the best ideas we've ever heard to reform the federal government and fix the main problem, the motivation of the members of Congress and the President. It's a democrat's nightmare but taps into the pay for performance philosophy, the same philosophy that a business uses to reward it's employees. If the employees (legislators) do a good job, they reap some extraordinary benefits: If they do a poor job then their compensation is cut. Here's a link to the article:

Video Resumes

As job candidates find themselves facing increasing competition for good positions, resourceful candidates look for a competitive advantage or a way to stand out. One suggestion we at netbranchology.com, would make is using a video resume or CV to help you make an impact. Think of it from the employer's, or recruiter's point of view. Hundreds of people sometimes apply for one position. Candidates only have a few seconds to make an impact on the reviewer. After reviewing a stack of resumes watching a video resume is a refreshing change. The recruiter's attention level has been heightened.. Providing a video resume gives a candidate an advantage because it enables her to illustrate to the recruiter some of the characteristics others can only list on a paper resume. For example, a person may describe himself as upbeat and outgoing; On the video their demeanor will be obvious as will the positive effect their enthusiasm generates. Many candidates portray themselves as possessing above-average communication skills. What better way to prove this than to show the recruiter your exemplary skills first hand? How you say something is probably more important than what you say.  We frequently see candidates describe episodes in their prior employment where they implemented an innovative solution to accomplish a goal. This is an informative bit of history but not nearly as effective as using an innovative tool, like a video resume or CV, to convince the recruiter that you have the skills necessary for the job you're seeking. Initiative is another frequently cited attribute in resumes, especially on the managerial level. Initiative usually involves trying new solutions to old problems. When a candidate spends the extra time and effort to create an engaging video resume recruiters will not need to be convinced that they possess initiative;It will be obvious.

Creating a video resume or CV only requires a few steps. Approach it like a job interview. Make it no longer than 2 minutes; Upload it to Youtube. Select the private option.To send it to a a prospective employer just enter the recipient's email address into the share feature. The privacy option prevents public viewing; Only those people who receive your invitation may view it. We, at netbranchology.com, also suggest that you include your social media contact information in an email or in the video. This helps us get an even better appreciation of you and your talents.

One of the techniques we use at netbranchology.com are video job ads.  You can see them here   WATCH VIDEOS
