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 Chris Johnstone to talk about how AI is truly changing the way loan officers win more deals. You’ll hear how AI can dig into your past customer database, spark conversations at scale, and even book appointments straight on your calendar without you lifting a finger. Chris also shares how real estate agents are starting to leverage AI-powered tools like open house answering services to convert more leads and bring greater value to their clients.
Carl and Chris tackle the big question about where technology ends and relationships begin, showing how smart loan officers can use AI to handle the heavy lifting while still doubling down on personal connections.
If you’ve been curious about how to actually use AI to bring in more loans and referrals without wasting time on gimmicks, this episode is packed with practical strategies you can use today.

| 0:57.0 | generating business way an L.O. can be using AI to, you know, like, what can they be doing |
| 1:03.5 | to generate business today? |
| 1:05.5 | Oh, okay. That's a great question. Because I think a lot of loan officers struggle with, like it does |
| 1:13.4 | videos, it does music, it does pictures, but I can't really generate business with that. |

| 1:36.1 | a past customer database that maybe hadn't been communicated with in a while. |
| 1:40.4 | Okay. |
| 1:40.8 | And we would load it in and we would just reach out for annual mortgage review, check |
