Mortgage Broker Marketing Plan Miscues

Is Your Mortgage Broker Marketing Plan Like a Wheel that Keeps Spinning but Doesn’t Go Anywhere?

You Need A Marketing Plan That Produces Results

There’s nothing more frustrating than spending time and money on marketing efforts that don’t produce any results. Unfortunately, lots of mortgage brokers find themselves in this situation.

In fact, that’s one of the chief problems: too many mortgage brokers prepare marketing plans and efforts that are just like every other mortgage broker. These plans make it virtually impossible to distinguish you from the pack of all the other brokers.

Listed are the most common mistakes found in a mortgage broker marketing plan. Are you making any of these errors?

• Looking just like everyone else. If you compared your plan or your materials to your competition, would you see any difference? If you removed their name from the brochure or website, would it look just like yours? If you can’t tell the difference, why should anyone else.



• Not exploring a niche. Are you targeting a specific niche for your marketing? If you don’t target a specific niche to explore, you are wasting your time trying to appeal to too large of a population. You aren’t putting enough time and energy into the demographic that could yield big results.



• Not developing your expertise. Do you make it easy for prospects to identify your expertise? If you are trying to be everything to everyone, you settle for mediocre performance, and it shows.



• Employing “noisy” marketing. Every time you shop in a store or mall, chances are you are exposed to music. But we all manage to tune out the music, it becomes background noise. If you are repeatedly sending the same information to realtors, you are becoming the background noise in their office.



• Failing to define your ideal prospect. Do you know who you should be marketing your services to? Have you figured out your ideal candidate? When you focus your efforts on the “right” prospect, you will attract business from similar prospects.



• Is your plan unrealistic. If you’ve developed an initial plan it can be a great first step, but all too often, a mortgage broker marketing plan aims for the moon. You need to revise your plan to not only make it realistic but achievable with measurable outcomes.
