  1. Love your job – There is nothing irreplaceable than loving the job you are doing right now. If you don’t have this feeling, please, give yourself the chance to grow elsewhere where you can be the happiest being.
  2. Be different from the rest – In the lending industry, you will meet people who will put you down while there are those who boast of their achievements. Take those as a learning process. Whatever they’ve done to succeed at a small scale short time period might be more profitable and useful when done at a longer phase. Leave the rest of the non-sense in your ears and let is pass there. Just keep learning and never imitate those who didn’t succeed during their time.
  3. Learn from your clients – Many will recognize learning in the process of assisting loan applicants but very few would be willing to improve their techniques and tactics at handling people. We are the most complicated yet easy to understand beings on Earth and it is easy to improve if you listen to your experience and is willing to accept making mistakes only to change for the better.
  4. Accept mistakes and learn from experience – Experience is the best teacher, therefore, it is a major factor to know and be conscious if somewhere along the way, you’ve made a mistake. Big or small, it will always help you improve if accept making it and do better the next time.
  5. Communicate – Successful people always know that communication is your best instrument in being there on top of what you do. This stands the same with your clients so you better make damn well sure that your client is willing to communicate with you. Otherwise, you just end up wasting time. Make them commit to your will and subject yourself to their demands only when necessary. You should be the one to set the terms, otherwise, time, effort and money is on the way to be lost in both parties.
  6. Write, write and write – Try to write everything you need to remember and avoid trusting your memory for the sole reason just like what the old saying goes – “memory fails”. By writing all things important, big or small, you have something to assess later and use for trying to see what needs to be improved.
  7. Listen to client demands but use your own judgement – Only you know your field and in the loan industry, you are the authority over your client so make sure you listen only to your client’s demands so you can use them later to serve better but stay away from being their robot who only works whenever there is a command.
  8. Keep records – All your loan data and client information should be kept well under your own radar. Be sure to keep a record of everything from contact details to personal records of your client.
  9. Be knowledgeable about the latest trends that work in the lending industry – Knowing what works in the latest form is always an advantage for a loan agent. If online marketing and advertising works, then that must be included in your list of things to do to get clients and be on top over the others. If you have been an agent for more than 5 years and you still believe that the only thing you can do to succeed and be on top over the competition is to distribute and give away flyers and promotional materials on the street where the logo and contact details of your company is listed, you might want to consider making your own. This will help you avoid potential clients walking in directly and losing them forever without even knowing it.
  10. Keep a record of all good payer clients and bad credit clients – By knowing which client pays on time, you might be able to increase your renewal commission or override commission with an affiliated downline loan agent.
