What have you done for me lately?Originally posted elsewhere by "A Quick Note" on June 2, 2007       In my former life, I managed fast-food restaurants. The kids who worked for me would ask for raises having done nothing (other than being on the payroll) to earn more compensation. I was often req...

Originally posted elsewhere by "A QUICK NOTE" on May 11, 2007      I ran across another "lawfully challenged" individual (mortgage broker) yesterday. He just wanted to get his deal done and was truly "put off" by my adherence to the law.  Although he didn't cross over the line, he came very close...

 In my experience, having conducted over 5,000 signings, borrowers often have trepidation at the signing table.  For the most part, mortgage brokers don't even know that the docs have finally come together from the lender and that escrow has sent me to sign their clients.  After their surprise of...

 Playing "office" when I was a kid was always my favorite pastime.  When my friends were excited about sports equipment, toys and games, I was always happiest with a fresh batch of office supplies.  I liked forms and checklists, pens and binder clips.  I was always a CEO or a President and I alwa...

What is the meaning of life?I could tell you but then I'd have to kill you! Perhaps the meaning of life is to enjoy the experiences you share with those you love.  How's that?  So many of us get wrapped up into our business that we forget how to "download" properly...  Vacations can even be seen ...

 When I was a younger guy, I used to work with a gal from somewhere down south.  Her manner of speaking soon rubbed off on those who worked around her and had me referring to women I was friendly with as "Hon" ...(short for honey).  I honestly never meant it as anything more than a friendly way t...

    Ever feel like you've been to one-too-many mixers, seminars and networking group recruiting breakfasts?  Most give you that cheesy nametag to wear so that insincere social misfits can walk up to you, call you by name, and spend the next 20 minutes blathering on about their local store which, ...

Remember when a campaign button was an effective tool?  If you do, you are surely much older than I am.  Still, I like the simplicity of them.  Today, so much of our advertising is high-tech, internet related or somehow even more impersonal.  Buttons seem to be more tangible and even more valuabl...

     I remember my writings from last year.  I was in a funk about business being slow.  Several of the lenders, mortgage brokerages and escrow companies we had done considerable work with suddenly closed their doors forever.  It seems that the shock of my new circumstance was difficult for me an...

     The running man?  He's my logo and a metaphor for the craziness I experience when business is good.  My best example?: My best day ever-(12) twelve sets of loan documents (across six counties) signed, sealed and delivered.  I left for my first appointment that day at 4AM.  My final appointme...
