Summary
So you’re thinking about becoming a branch manager, or maybe you’re already a branch manager, but want to know more about the producing vs. a non-producing branch manager models. Well, I’m sitting here with two very dear friends of mine, Ralph and Kristin Watkins. By the way, for those of you who don’t know this is the couple that got me into the mortgage business to begin with. So I’m very grateful to be sitting here and chatting with them today about this. We’ve all been in the position of loan officer, producing and non-producing branch manager and there are differences to every model. No one is better than the other, they’re all just different.
If you’re interested in hearing which model may be the best fit for you, then you’re going to want to stay tuned to this episode of Loan Officer Freedom, the #1 podcast for Loan Officers. We’ll touch on:
- Recruiting efforts
- The best time to recruit
