You are the real Rock Star. I have been following you for years and your zest for our industry is admirable, but more so is your constant stream of amazing ideas that are easy to implement. You are so creative, so giving, so intelligent, and I just love you for the contribution you have made to so many folks in our business. If there is a mortgage hall of fame somewhere, you are in it for sure!

I have really found your articles  very useful and relevant. They give me great ideas for blogs and allow me to increase my value in my marketing efforts. I look forward to continued resources on your site.

Thank you for the great information. I learned a lot at the MGIC Lenders School.

So many good ideas that you shared from the MGIC Lenders’ School, and now to try to implement some of them, one at a time. It was a beneficial morning! Thank you Karen!

ProAssistMarketing.com helped me by sending out an email to all my Realtors on “What do you tell clients to do after closing?” and several of my Realtors responded with a thanks and some suggested additions to the list. This means that I now have their attention!!! In addition, in an email that went out to clients about appraisals, I received a referral to a new prospect that is buying a home in the area. I love this turnkey solution to marketing!

I just want you to know how much you have influenced my career.  I have been in the industry since 1989.  Your blogs and sites have helped me self-educate and keep up with industry trends. In turn, this has helped me maintain a job even during the bad times.  Keep up the good work and I’ll keep following.

I am impressed with each and every webinar [How to Get Qualified Leads by Holding Home Buying Seminars], additional information section, etc. I mentor 4 Loan Originators who sat in on the session. Needless to say we all are energized and can clearly see the value of your experience. We are hooked; starting our plan immediately.

Your “No Shiny Objects” e-book has manageable marketing ideas and strategies that stand the test of time and will indeed, make a positive impact on the growth of our business. Plus, the ideas are fun and creative which makes a big difference as to whether one fully implements a marketing project or not. I guarantee it’s the “Everything” marketing book you’ll come back to over and over so keep it handy!

Your new book—No Shiny Objects… is excellent.  It’s a quick read, but with a lot of clearly explained practical ideas for loan originators to consider.  Your last section about the importance of a database and the exit strategy is something most loan officers don’t consider, but any small business should have as part of its strategic planning.

When I think of the people that had positive influences in my life, you are certainly on the top of that list. There are so many people out there that choose to dwell on the bad and hopelessness of situations. I was very lucky to have had you as a mentor in my young years in this business. Your outlook is always hopeful and exciting! I have pulled from your wisdom many times!

Karen, I just wanted to let you know that I have already received several warm responses from several Realtors to whom I sent the flyer we finalized this morning. I can’t thank you enough for all of your help and for reminding me that a woman’s intuition is nothing to ignore!

Loved your presentation today. I found it to be useful, entertaining and chock- full of ideas. I’ll be implementing them in the future.
