297: AI in Mortgages. Tool or Trap?
In this episode, I share my personal insights on AI in the mortgage industry and how most aren't using it properly to actually help their business. I highlight the practical ways I have been using AI to build tools for the success of my team, but at the end of the day if you have a bad business, AI won't help you. Nothing can replace having solid business fundamentals and doing your non-negotiables.

00:00:06,110 --> 00:00:07,550
Welcome to the mortgage game.
2
00:00:07,810 --> 00:00:09,870
I truly, truly believe that
3
00:00:09,870 --> 00:00:13,370
building a mortgage business, a
successful one is like playing a
4
00:00:13,370 --> 00:00:13,510
game.
5
00:00:13,510 --> 00:00:15,050
There's winners, there's losers.
6
00:00:15,050 --> 00:00:16,410
There's certain things you try.
7
00:00:16,410 --> 00:00:18,110
Some of us are playing checkers
8
00:00:18,110 --> 00:00:19,910
while others are playing chess.
9
00:00:19,910 --> 00:00:22,410
I've had the ability to coach and
10
00:00:22,410 --> 00:00:23,550
mentor hundreds of mortgage
brokers.
11
00:00:23,550 --> 00:00:26,290
I myself built a very nice
business.
12
00:00:26,290 --> 00:00:29,570
So now I want to distill all that
information, all the things I've
13
00:00:29,830 --> 00:00:32,830
learned from that and bring it
directly to you in a simple to
14
00:00:32,830 --> 00:00:33,190
understand way.
15
00:00:33,190 --> 00:00:34,170
I hope you enjoy.
16
00:00:34,170 --> 00:00:34,920
All right.
17
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:39,120
Welcome to the mortgage game
18
00:00:39,620 --> 00:00:39,820
podcast.
19
00:00:39,820 --> 00:00:40,880
Whiteboard Wiley, AI Wiley.
20
00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:44,380
That's the new one.
21
00:00:44,380 --> 00:00:46,220
AI Wiley coming to you live.
22
00:00:46,220 --> 00:00:47,780
Dodge Ram Studio.
23
00:00:47,780 --> 00:00:49,080
Shut that off.
24
00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:49,360
Okay.
25
00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:53,720
So we're going to talk about AI
26
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:53,800
today.
27
00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:53,860
Yeah.
28
00:00:53,860 --> 00:00:56,200
Everyone's like, AI this, AI that.
29
00:00:56,200 --> 00:00:58,200
I'm going to share some things.
30
00:00:58,200 --> 00:00:59,100
I'm going to share some cautions.
31
00:00:59,100 --> 00:00:59,880
I'm going to share what.
32
00:00:59,940 --> 00:01:01,240
I see people doing with it.
33
00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:02,560
I'm just like, this is like
34
00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:04,440
discussion, one of many, many
chats about AI.
35
00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:07,380
Before we do that, I'm in
Vancouver at a soccer tournament
36
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:12,120
in the truck in the parking lot
outside the hotel.
37
00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:12,580
Nothing glamorous.
38
00:01:12,580 --> 00:01:13,100
Doing a podcast.
39
00:01:13,100 --> 00:01:15,080
Kids are sleeping, family
sleeping.
40
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:16,820
I'm out here.
41
00:01:16,820 --> 00:01:20,240
This is me telling you there's no
42
00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:22,800
excuse why you can't do the thing
you want to do.
43
00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:23,620
You find crevices of time.
44
00:01:23,620 --> 00:01:24,060
I do opens.
45
00:01:24,060 --> 00:01:25,620
Anyone who follows me.
46
00:01:25,620 --> 00:01:28,540
For a good two years, I would
47
00:01:28,540 --> 00:01:33,060
respond to every single person and
I would open them back and be
48
00:01:33,060 --> 00:01:34,900
like, thanks for the follow.
49
00:01:34,900 --> 00:01:36,120
Hey, is there any, do you have a
50
00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:37,860
question for me?
Like you should be doing the same.
51
00:01:37,860 --> 00:01:39,500
Wouldn't I do that?
I'd be pumping gas.
52
00:01:39,500 --> 00:01:40,200
You're sitting there pumping gas.
53
00:01:40,300 --> 00:01:41,500
You've got, I don't know, a
54
00:01:41,500 --> 00:01:43,200
minute, two minutes.
55
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:44,920
I can do a couple opens there
56
00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:46,400
where I just respond to people,
right?
57
00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:49,220
Like within your day, it doesn't
have to be this perfect situation
58
00:01:49,220 --> 00:01:52,080
where you're like mentally
prepared to go reach out to
59
00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:52,260
people.
60
00:01:52,260 --> 00:01:52,520
Remember text?
61
00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:56,260
And voice memos, you don't have to
call people.
62
00:01:56,260 --> 00:01:57,740
Call works too.
63
00:01:57,740 --> 00:01:58,000
Everything works.
64
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:01,200
Whatever you want to do works.
65
00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:03,280
So there's a broker on my team.
66
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:05,300
He did 6 ,300 opens in 2025.
67
00:02:05,300 --> 00:02:08,479
But he also 100x, not 100x, 10x,
68
00:02:08,479 --> 00:02:14,260
15x his income, maybe even 18x his
income from 2024 to 2025.
69
00:02:14,260 --> 00:02:17,180
And he did 6 ,300 opens.
70
00:02:17,340 --> 00:02:21,080
That averages, let's say, 25 a
71
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:21,260
day.
72
00:02:21,260 --> 00:02:24,140
He didn't make one phone call.
73
00:02:24,140 --> 00:02:25,780
and made a shit ton of money.
74
00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:27,500
So, but you figure out the time to
75
00:02:27,500 --> 00:02:27,840
do it.
76
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:29,650
Sometimes he has his, you know,
77
00:02:29,650 --> 00:02:32,110
one year old on his arm.
78
00:02:32,110 --> 00:02:32,830
So he's doing copy paste.
79
00:02:32,830 --> 00:02:34,390
Other times you can walk around
your voice memo.
80
00:02:34,390 --> 00:02:36,510
You just, you figure it out much
like his podcast.
81
00:02:36,510 --> 00:02:39,110
It wasn't in the plan to come to
Vancouver and then wake up early.
82
00:02:39,110 --> 00:02:40,070
So I went, hit the gym.
83
00:02:40,070 --> 00:02:42,230
Now I'm here in the parking lot
84
00:02:42,230 --> 00:02:45,550
and then I'm going to go back and
then people are just going to be
85
00:02:46,130 --> 00:02:48,290
waking up and I'm like, Hey, I got
the podcast done, which serves you
86
00:02:48,290 --> 00:02:49,290
to help you, right?
You brokers.
87
00:02:49,290 --> 00:02:50,650
I'm saying like, step back and
look at your current, business.
88
00:02:50,710 --> 00:02:52,650
It doesn't have to be nine to
five.
89
00:02:52,650 --> 00:02:54,150
You're Monday to Friday.
90
00:02:54,490 --> 00:02:56,650
You're in like, that's not what
91
00:02:56,790 --> 00:02:57,370
this world is.
92
00:02:57,370 --> 00:02:59,200
The world is get the shit done.
93
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:01,840
Whenever it weave it around the
excuse of there's never any time.
94
00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:03,740
That's the biggest bullshit phrase
I've ever heard.
95
00:03:03,740 --> 00:03:05,260
There's just not enough time.
96
00:03:05,260 --> 00:03:08,000
Wake up earlier is always the
97
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:08,180
answer.
98
00:03:08,180 --> 00:03:09,200
I need my sleep.
99
00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:10,540
Go to bed earlier.
100
00:03:10,740 --> 00:03:13,500
You know, you can do things on six
101
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:14,460
hours sleep.
102
00:03:14,460 --> 00:03:14,660
Yeah.
103
00:03:14,660 --> 00:03:14,900
Yeah.
104
00:03:14,900 --> 00:03:16,360
There's people defending this
105
00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:17,600
country and other countries.
106
00:03:17,740 --> 00:03:19,020
who are doing it on less sleep
107
00:03:19,020 --> 00:03:20,800
than that.
108
00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:21,720
Like, and they're defending you.
109
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:24,680
That's an extreme example, but you
get it.
110
00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:28,570
You can do things, which I don't
even consider it hard.
111
00:03:28,570 --> 00:03:32,290
For the purpose of mortgage
brokers, it's so hard to reach out
112
00:03:33,230 --> 00:03:34,210
to 10 people.
113
00:03:34,210 --> 00:03:37,450
Okay, you can do hard things every
114
00:03:37,450 --> 00:03:37,770
day.
115
00:03:37,770 --> 00:03:39,790
Let's get into it though.
116
00:03:39,790 --> 00:03:42,010
AI, because that's other stuff
gets me jacked up.
117
00:03:42,010 --> 00:03:43,710
AI gets me jacked up too.
118
00:03:43,710 --> 00:03:45,290
So let's have a real conversation
119
00:03:45,290 --> 00:03:45,610
about that.
120
00:03:45,610 --> 00:03:48,010
Before we do, this podcast is
121
00:03:48,010 --> 00:03:49,550
brought to you by Americana.
122
00:03:49,550 --> 00:03:51,610
Okay, AI is such a hot button.
123
00:03:51,930 --> 00:03:54,670
And go check out, I have a
Facebook group I created seven
124
00:03:54,670 --> 00:03:57,530
years ago, but now we changed it
to an AI group.
125
00:03:57,530 --> 00:04:01,170
So it's AI for Canadian Orange
Brokers.
126
00:04:01,170 --> 00:04:02,090
I think that's literally the name.
127
00:04:02,090 --> 00:04:03,550
AI for Canadian Orange Brokers,
128
00:04:03,550 --> 00:04:03,930
Facebook group.
129
00:04:03,930 --> 00:04:06,350
And we're just going to be
130
00:04:06,390 --> 00:04:07,290
showcasing stuff.
131
00:04:07,290 --> 00:04:08,450
And now we're going to have
132
00:04:08,450 --> 00:04:12,330
conversations with people who are
going down the AI path in our
133
00:04:12,330 --> 00:04:12,670
industry.
134
00:04:12,670 --> 00:04:14,290
very specific of who we're letting
135
00:04:14,290 --> 00:04:15,090
in that group.
136
00:04:15,250 --> 00:04:16,010
It's not just everyone come in.
137
00:04:16,010 --> 00:04:17,370
So it looks like we have a big
group.
138
00:04:17,370 --> 00:04:19,570
It's you need to be a licensed
mortgage broker.
139
00:04:19,570 --> 00:04:22,900
And if you're an asshole, I'm
going to kick you out.
140
00:04:22,900 --> 00:04:25,100
I've started dropping links in to
come buy your shit, do stuff.
141
00:04:25,100 --> 00:04:25,520
I'm going to drop.
142
00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:26,840
I'm going to kick you out.
143
00:04:26,840 --> 00:04:27,260
We don't need that.
144
00:04:27,260 --> 00:04:29,240
This is going to be a conversation
145
00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:30,140
because this is the new world.
146
00:04:30,140 --> 00:04:31,260
This is the internet.
147
00:04:31,260 --> 00:04:34,060
We had the internet, which was
like, ah, a lot of money made, a
148
00:04:34,180 --> 00:04:34,400
lot of opportunity.
149
00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:35,740
Then we had social media, exact
150
00:04:35,740 --> 00:04:36,500
same thing.
151
00:04:36,500 --> 00:04:38,260
AI is that, but it might even be
152
00:04:38,260 --> 00:04:39,160
those two combined.
153
00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:41,340
But you don't have to worry about
154
00:04:41,340 --> 00:04:41,440
that.
155
00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:42,920
That's the cool part.
156
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:44,280
Our industry is so archaic.
157
00:04:44,280 --> 00:04:46,320
I know a lot of you feel like
158
00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:49,340
you're missing out all the time
because there's a new software, a
159
00:04:49,340 --> 00:04:52,760
new something, doing something,
and some brokers went in and then
160
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:57,520
they show you a little bit and
you're like, oh my God, I need
161
00:04:57,520 --> 00:04:57,640
that.
162
00:04:57,640 --> 00:04:59,220
I'm missing out on everything.
163
00:04:59,220 --> 00:05:02,100
And then other people are like, oh
my God, our business, my job's
164
00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:03,440
going to be taken from me.
165
00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:04,920
I'm going to tell you our industry
166
00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:05,720
is one of the most archaic out
there.
167
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:06,280
It's a good thing.
168
00:05:06,340 --> 00:05:07,240
It's embarrassing, but it's a good
169
00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:07,420
thing.
170
00:05:07,420 --> 00:05:09,040
So you complain on one hand that
171
00:05:09,100 --> 00:05:10,200
the lenders aren't getting back to
you.
172
00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:12,020
Because they haven't done the
document or they haven't even
173
00:05:12,020 --> 00:05:13,900
picked up the file because they've
got four computer systems and
174
00:05:13,900 --> 00:05:15,940
they're not jiving over here.
175
00:05:15,940 --> 00:05:17,400
You send a national bank and they
176
00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:19,580
have to key in the application
from boss manually into their
177
00:05:19,580 --> 00:05:21,310
system to get it to national bank.
178
00:05:21,310 --> 00:05:22,870
And so M3 is doing that.
179
00:05:22,870 --> 00:05:23,990
Like everything's clunky and slow.
180
00:05:23,990 --> 00:05:24,450
Embrace it.
181
00:05:24,450 --> 00:05:25,790
Otherwise, we wouldn't be around.
182
00:05:25,790 --> 00:05:27,490
This was Dubai and we were just
183
00:05:27,870 --> 00:05:28,150
cranking out.
184
00:05:28,150 --> 00:05:30,130
They've been way ahead of us.
185
00:05:30,130 --> 00:05:33,530
Sending flipping money around with
clicks of buttons in seconds for
186
00:05:33,530 --> 00:05:33,850
years.
187
00:05:33,850 --> 00:05:35,330
And remember a client of mine, he
188
00:05:35,330 --> 00:05:39,030
was from Dubai and he came here to
get a mortgage.
189
00:05:40,430 --> 00:05:44,250
And he's like, Ryan, and this was,
oh my goodness, this was probably
190
00:05:44,250 --> 00:05:45,030
eight years ago.
191
00:05:45,030 --> 00:05:46,470
He's like, it is so archaic here,
192
00:05:46,690 --> 00:05:48,030
the Canadian financial system.
193
00:05:48,030 --> 00:05:48,870
He's like, it's bonkers.
194
00:05:48,870 --> 00:05:52,580
We're light years ahead of you in
Dubai.
195
00:05:52,580 --> 00:05:54,240
And I'm like, yeah, but it's why I
have a job.
196
00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:56,720
And it's why I can find my
opportunity of how to like piece
197
00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:59,340
this stuff together because the
lenders and they're all making
198
00:05:59,560 --> 00:05:59,880
money.
199
00:05:59,880 --> 00:06:02,120
So no one's going to stop.
200
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:04,200
They go get more efficient.
201
00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:05,360
It's not like they're starving.
202
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:06,540
So we've got a long runway here.
203
00:06:06,540 --> 00:06:07,220
Kids is what I'm saying.
204
00:06:07,220 --> 00:06:09,620
So before you start talking shit
on lenders and how slow everything
205
00:06:09,620 --> 00:06:11,900
is, realize if it was fast,
there's a greater chance you
206
00:06:11,900 --> 00:06:14,440
wouldn't be as needed.
207
00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:15,660
So embrace the fact it's clunky.
208
00:06:15,660 --> 00:06:18,120
Like that has to be something that
resonates with you right there.
209
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,300
Like seriously, with me, I'm like,
oh, I love it.
210
00:06:20,300 --> 00:06:21,410
I love it.
211
00:06:21,410 --> 00:06:22,690
It means we're sticking around,
212
00:06:22,690 --> 00:06:24,870
right?
You don't have to evolve yourself
213
00:06:24,870 --> 00:06:25,590
that quickly now.
214
00:06:25,590 --> 00:06:26,330
So AI.
215
00:06:26,470 --> 00:06:31,450
This is going to be one of many
conversations we're going to do
216
00:06:31,450 --> 00:06:36,390
because I'm going down the, I
don't want to say rabbit hole.
217
00:06:36,390 --> 00:06:37,110
I'm done doing that.
218
00:06:37,110 --> 00:06:40,690
I'm going to be an expert at AI in
219
00:06:40,770 --> 00:06:41,230
the mortgage industry.
220
00:06:41,310 --> 00:06:43,270
I'm going to, I am probably in the
221
00:06:43,270 --> 00:06:44,130
99th percentile already.
222
00:06:44,970 --> 00:06:46,450
I'm going to be an expert.
223
00:06:46,450 --> 00:06:51,050
I will, I'll be like, if there's
like a certification they can give
224
00:06:51,050 --> 00:06:53,650
me, I'll be like, here you go,
Ryan, you're an expert AI.
225
00:06:53,650 --> 00:06:54,890
Everyone talk to Ryan.
226
00:06:54,890 --> 00:06:56,370
I'll be like, no, don't talk to
227
00:06:56,370 --> 00:06:56,590
me.
228
00:06:57,010 --> 00:06:58,410
but I'm going to be an expert.
229
00:06:58,410 --> 00:07:00,950
I am going down this path.
230
00:07:00,950 --> 00:07:03,350
I'm hundreds of hours in on it.
231
00:07:03,350 --> 00:07:08,750
And you might be like, well, Ryan,
why are you doing that?
232
00:07:08,810 --> 00:07:09,270
I'm doing it.
233
00:07:09,450 --> 00:07:10,970
A, it interests the hell out of
234
00:07:10,970 --> 00:07:11,090
me.
235
00:07:11,090 --> 00:07:12,770
B, I'm doing it to build things
236
00:07:13,110 --> 00:07:17,050
for my mortgage team so that they
can go make money so that they can
237
00:07:17,050 --> 00:07:18,290
save some time and make more
money.
238
00:07:18,290 --> 00:07:18,710
That's what I'm doing.
239
00:07:18,890 --> 00:07:21,610
And so some of the tools are for
240
00:07:21,610 --> 00:07:23,510
me in my own business.
241
00:07:23,730 --> 00:07:25,170
Majority of the tools are for my
242
00:07:25,270 --> 00:07:25,370
agents.
243
00:07:25,370 --> 00:07:27,630
And so I'm going to have just a
244
00:07:27,790 --> 00:07:29,250
conversation and I'm going to
share the journey.
245
00:07:29,650 --> 00:07:31,350
I'm going to keep sharing tools.
246
00:07:31,350 --> 00:07:33,630
I haven't even like shared barely
247
00:07:33,630 --> 00:07:36,850
anything with you, but I'm just
going to tell you.
248
00:07:36,850 --> 00:07:41,570
So we're not going to get into,
and we're also going to be doing a
249
00:07:41,570 --> 00:07:43,450
AI for beginner in -person
workshop that's coming in either
250
00:07:43,450 --> 00:07:44,870
August or September.
251
00:07:44,870 --> 00:07:46,130
So keep your ears to the ground.
252
00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:47,660
That's going to be 40 people max.
253
00:07:47,660 --> 00:07:48,800
It's going to be me and my team
254
00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:49,260
with you.
255
00:07:49,260 --> 00:07:50,460
You're going to bring a computer.
256
00:07:50,460 --> 00:07:53,160
You're going to have your LLM,
your large language model.
257
00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:54,720
uh ready to go free account and
we're gonna come and we're gonna
258
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:56,940
build things together we're gonna
come with the things we're gonna
259
00:07:56,940 --> 00:08:01,460
build we're gonna help you build
them you're gonna leave this it
260
00:08:01,460 --> 00:08:04,380
could be one of these bullshit
things we show up and there's just
261
00:08:04,380 --> 00:08:07,560
six people talking about random
stuff it's not that those are cool
262
00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:09,880
sometimes but it's like yeah i'm
over it i want to like have
263
00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:13,910
something i don't want to have a
list of a laundry list of things
264
00:08:13,910 --> 00:08:16,210
to do after a thing that was
always my problem with those and
265
00:08:16,210 --> 00:08:18,250
i've spoken at a bunch of them but
i'm like I get it.
266
00:08:18,250 --> 00:08:19,750
It's more social and that, but
this is like, bring it.
267
00:08:19,750 --> 00:08:22,130
We're going to be over your
shoulder building stuff with you.
268
00:08:22,130 --> 00:08:25,670
So you'll leave and you'll have a
way better understanding of how to
269
00:08:25,670 --> 00:08:26,630
use AI in your mortgage business.
270
00:08:26,630 --> 00:08:27,710
And you'll actually have some
271
00:08:27,710 --> 00:08:29,610
tools built that you can like
implement like that day.
272
00:08:29,610 --> 00:08:30,910
So keep your ear to the ground.
273
00:08:30,910 --> 00:08:31,450
That's something.
274
00:08:31,450 --> 00:08:33,809
And it's only going to be 40
people.
275
00:08:33,809 --> 00:08:38,250
It's not going to be like 300
people in a room and it's just
276
00:08:38,250 --> 00:08:38,429
chaos.
277
00:08:38,429 --> 00:08:39,809
It'll be 40 where we can actually
278
00:08:39,809 --> 00:08:41,750
walk around and you'll be working
on your computer and it'll be a
279
00:08:41,750 --> 00:08:42,650
half day thing.
280
00:08:42,650 --> 00:08:44,090
So yeah, we're doing this.
281
00:08:44,090 --> 00:08:45,750
I can't wait to do that.
282
00:08:45,750 --> 00:08:46,430
That's good.
283
00:08:46,430 --> 00:08:47,890
And I get to see the people.
284
00:08:48,190 --> 00:08:50,870
So it'll be me and my team will be
285
00:08:50,870 --> 00:08:51,390
right there.
286
00:08:51,390 --> 00:08:54,510
40 of us will be able to spend
287
00:08:54,510 --> 00:08:55,270
some time with you.
288
00:08:55,270 --> 00:08:56,130
Like, how cool is that?
289
00:08:56,130 --> 00:08:56,710
That's what we're doing.
290
00:08:56,830 --> 00:08:57,810
So we're going to be doing that
291
00:08:57,810 --> 00:08:58,310
all across.
292
00:08:58,310 --> 00:08:59,150
Definitely Ontario, Vancouver,
293
00:08:59,150 --> 00:08:59,310
Alberta.
294
00:08:59,310 --> 00:09:00,790
We're probably going to stick
295
00:09:00,790 --> 00:09:01,510
there for now.
296
00:09:01,510 --> 00:09:03,850
Yeah, we'll probably stick there
297
00:09:03,850 --> 00:09:04,270
for now.
298
00:09:04,270 --> 00:09:05,690
So this podcast brought to you by
299
00:09:05,690 --> 00:09:05,890
Americana.
300
00:09:05,890 --> 00:09:07,560
We're using, a friend challenged
301
00:09:07,560 --> 00:09:07,740
me.
302
00:09:07,740 --> 00:09:09,380
He's like, hey, Ryan, you've got
303
00:09:09,380 --> 00:09:11,620
all these things and you're trying
to like piece it all together.
304
00:09:11,620 --> 00:09:13,820
Can you just use one?
Use one and use it for 30 days and
305
00:09:13,820 --> 00:09:15,740
then come back and tell me if you
missed the other.
306
00:09:15,820 --> 00:09:18,140
So I shut down ChatGPT and I shut
down Claude and I shut down
307
00:09:18,140 --> 00:09:18,320
Gemini.
308
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:21,620
I didn't just shut them out.
309
00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:23,420
I just didn't use them.
310
00:09:23,420 --> 00:09:25,940
But I did shut down anything I was
311
00:09:25,940 --> 00:09:26,220
paying for.
312
00:09:26,220 --> 00:09:27,660
And I went in, me personally, I'm
313
00:09:27,660 --> 00:09:33,170
not telling you to go do this
either.
314
00:09:33,170 --> 00:09:34,690
I'm just saying for me, because
I'm building things, right?
315
00:09:34,690 --> 00:09:35,670
I needed some coding built in
there.
316
00:09:35,670 --> 00:09:36,450
Coding for dummies, essentially.
317
00:09:36,630 --> 00:09:37,330
And that was Manus.
318
00:09:37,330 --> 00:09:41,110
Manus was bought, I don't know, a
year ago for $2 billion by Meta.
319
00:09:41,110 --> 00:09:41,730
It's in my Instagram now.
320
00:09:41,730 --> 00:09:43,030
So I connect my email to it,
321
00:09:43,030 --> 00:09:44,970
connect Slack to it.
322
00:09:44,970 --> 00:09:46,310
I can talk.
323
00:09:46,310 --> 00:09:48,230
So let me just walk you through
like a typical day for me.
324
00:09:48,230 --> 00:09:49,250
So I built things.
325
00:09:49,250 --> 00:09:50,350
I built an offset mortgage
326
00:09:50,350 --> 00:09:50,770
calculator on there.
327
00:09:50,770 --> 00:09:52,470
Took me about 50 hours and about
328
00:09:52,510 --> 00:09:52,750
$5 ,000.
329
00:09:52,750 --> 00:09:53,630
Our agents are using it now.
330
00:09:53,630 --> 00:09:56,170
And we're going to make it even
better next week.
331
00:09:56,170 --> 00:09:58,750
I have a whole build day.
332
00:09:58,750 --> 00:10:01,390
I have three build days next week
333
00:10:01,710 --> 00:10:04,310
where I shut my calendar down,
can't get access to me.
334
00:10:04,430 --> 00:10:07,790
I put on headphones, the room's
dark, and I sit there five to
335
00:10:07,790 --> 00:10:09,730
five, 5 a
m., 5 p
336
00:10:09,730 --> 00:10:12,290
m., 12 hours for three days next
week.
337
00:10:12,290 --> 00:10:13,790
And that's to build stuff, build
stuff for the team.
338
00:10:13,790 --> 00:10:17,050
And so when I come out of there,
we have this laundry list of stuff
339
00:10:17,050 --> 00:10:18,430
we're going to build.
340
00:10:18,590 --> 00:10:20,030
It's quite spectacular what we're
341
00:10:20,030 --> 00:10:20,690
building.
342
00:10:20,690 --> 00:10:24,130
We're just staying ahead of the
343
00:10:24,130 --> 00:10:25,820
curve, right?
We're trying to give value bang
344
00:10:25,820 --> 00:10:27,400
for the buck for the splits agents
are paying.
345
00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:30,560
It's like, and a lot of these old
models are just bullshit old
346
00:10:30,560 --> 00:10:34,080
models where they're dinosaurs on
a 2015 model and they're just
347
00:10:34,180 --> 00:10:35,120
taking money from brokers.
348
00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:37,240
We're not going down that path.
349
00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:39,900
This is not what it is.
350
00:10:39,900 --> 00:10:40,580
Back to AI.
351
00:10:40,580 --> 00:10:45,540
I got to reel myself in here
because I get jacked up when I see
352
00:10:45,540 --> 00:10:46,000
that crap happening.
353
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:47,140
So I do Manus.
354
00:10:47,140 --> 00:10:48,300
And so the funny thing is I'll do
these.
355
00:10:48,300 --> 00:10:48,920
I learned Manus.
356
00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:49,540
I went in and out.
357
00:10:49,940 --> 00:10:51,760
I've taken Manus course.
358
00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:53,380
I've done like hundreds of hours
359
00:10:53,380 --> 00:10:54,120
now on learning and building.
360
00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:54,840
And OMG, freaking awesome.
361
00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:56,180
And so now imagine this.
362
00:10:56,180 --> 00:10:58,680
So we drive to Vancouver all the
363
00:10:58,800 --> 00:10:59,140
time for soccer.
364
00:10:59,140 --> 00:11:00,020
We have to come out here.
365
00:11:00,020 --> 00:11:05,780
And we start and there's a part
over the highway where you get no
366
00:11:05,780 --> 00:11:06,000
reception.
367
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:08,000
So before we get on, I talk to
368
00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:08,800
Madison on my phone.
369
00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:10,460
I tell it what I want to do.
370
00:11:10,460 --> 00:11:11,860
And I have it on our project list,
right?
371
00:11:11,860 --> 00:11:14,580
So we map out our projects and we
prioritize them.
372
00:11:14,580 --> 00:11:16,020
And I go, but this is what I'm
thinking.
373
00:11:16,020 --> 00:11:16,920
Well, we start the project.
374
00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:19,160
And then we go over the mountain
375
00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:20,100
and it's building.
376
00:11:20,100 --> 00:11:22,800
And then we come off the mountain
377
00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:28,680
to one spot and I can check in.
378
00:11:28,680 --> 00:11:30,580
I'm like, oh yeah, change this,
379
00:11:30,700 --> 00:11:31,260
change this.
380
00:11:31,260 --> 00:11:32,540
And I'm talking as I'm driving
381
00:11:32,540 --> 00:11:33,560
right into my phone.
382
00:11:33,560 --> 00:11:35,600
And then by the time I get to
383
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:36,420
Vancouver, that's four hours.
384
00:11:36,420 --> 00:11:38,500
By the time we get to Vancouver,
385
00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:40,740
either A, I have the thing built.
386
00:11:40,740 --> 00:11:42,120
B, I have a huge head start,
387
00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:43,660
depending on how big of a project
it is.
388
00:11:43,660 --> 00:11:46,240
Or C, it's like, the point is, for
four hours, AI is building things
389
00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:47,220
for me while I'm driving.
390
00:11:47,220 --> 00:11:47,940
Same thing when I'm working during
391
00:11:47,940 --> 00:11:48,260
my day.
392
00:11:48,680 --> 00:11:49,840
Regular Tuesday, I'm sitting there
393
00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:50,400
in the middle.
394
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:51,020
I have my coaching.
395
00:11:51,020 --> 00:11:53,360
We're doing our coaching calls,
our daily calls, our one -on -one
396
00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:54,260
calls, our one -to -many calls.
397
00:11:54,260 --> 00:11:55,280
We're showing up for the team
398
00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:55,840
every fucking day.
399
00:11:56,180 --> 00:11:57,340
And then I have three screens.
400
00:11:57,340 --> 00:11:59,160
On the middle screen, we're doing
that.
401
00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:00,280
On the left screen, Manus is there
building.
402
00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:02,480
On the right screen, Manus is
there building.
403
00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:04,760
So I have AI building as my day's
going on.
404
00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:06,140
And then after the training, I...
405
00:12:06,140 --> 00:12:07,800
pop out and I go and I check and I
406
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:11,760
give instructions and I course
correct and I boom and we test
407
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:17,800
boom and then I get back into my
next coaching session and then by
408
00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:20,960
thing I can see my screens on each
side of me building as I'm there
409
00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:24,980
so think of the leverage I'm
getting with that think of that
410
00:12:24,980 --> 00:12:27,580
it's insane so what we've done
here's just a couple things we
411
00:12:27,580 --> 00:12:31,060
built the offset calculator which
is spectacular um I won't get into
412
00:12:31,060 --> 00:12:33,260
all the things it does but it's
awesome it's helping us win
413
00:12:33,260 --> 00:12:35,760
renewals and even purchases and
refis Any uninsured file should be
414
00:12:35,980 --> 00:12:37,320
run through an offset situation.
415
00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:39,740
And if you don't agree, hit me up
416
00:12:39,740 --> 00:12:41,700
and we can have a debate.
417
00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:43,360
Because once I explain it to you
418
00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:45,000
and you actually understand the
strategy and how to structure,
419
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:45,840
you'll be like, holy shitballs.
420
00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:47,140
Yeah, you're right, Ryan.
421
00:12:47,140 --> 00:12:49,500
I've been listening to everyone
else who doesn't have a fucking
422
00:12:49,500 --> 00:12:50,300
clue what they're talking about.
423
00:12:50,300 --> 00:12:51,220
And they just don't.
424
00:12:51,220 --> 00:12:55,180
And I will tell you right now, the
offset mortgage, I know more about
425
00:12:55,180 --> 00:12:57,100
it than anyone else in Canada.
426
00:12:57,100 --> 00:12:59,200
By far, not even close.
427
00:12:59,200 --> 00:12:59,600
Bring it.
428
00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:00,160
You got a challenger?
429
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:00,700
Bring them on.
430
00:13:00,700 --> 00:13:01,700
Let's go.
431
00:13:01,700 --> 00:13:05,520
You want to talk about it?
Let's go.
432
00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:06,300
I've thrown my world into that.
433
00:13:06,300 --> 00:13:08,100
And this was way before.
434
00:13:08,100 --> 00:13:11,290
We've been training on it for 14
months, numerous times a week.
435
00:13:11,290 --> 00:13:12,910
Yeah, we're pretty deep into it.
436
00:13:12,910 --> 00:13:14,650
But it gives you a fighting chance
437
00:13:14,910 --> 00:13:15,850
without understanding this massive
strategy.
438
00:13:15,850 --> 00:13:17,890
Anyways, I'm going to shut that
down now.
439
00:13:17,890 --> 00:13:18,750
I'm reeling myself in.
440
00:13:18,750 --> 00:13:19,830
See, doing a good job.
441
00:13:19,830 --> 00:13:20,990
Back to AI.
442
00:13:20,990 --> 00:13:22,170
So we built that.
443
00:13:22,170 --> 00:13:23,870
Now we're building a deal finder.
444
00:13:23,870 --> 00:13:25,710
So it's basically, And a lot of
445
00:13:25,710 --> 00:13:27,070
people have these now, which is
about freaking time.
446
00:13:27,070 --> 00:13:30,810
It's a database mining tool that
mines your data while you sleep.
447
00:13:30,810 --> 00:13:33,470
It's going to be hooked up to
Finbo and Velocity.
448
00:13:33,470 --> 00:13:36,590
Your data flows in and it just
sits there and it finds
449
00:13:36,590 --> 00:13:37,970
opportunities every single day.
450
00:13:37,970 --> 00:13:40,460
Every day you're going to get an
451
00:13:40,460 --> 00:13:40,660
email.
452
00:13:41,020 --> 00:13:42,060
Email is going to show you
453
00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:45,820
refinance opportunities based on
IRD and rate arbitrage and the
454
00:13:45,820 --> 00:13:48,080
cash flow savings with a break
even.
455
00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:55,420
All the math is already done with
a script where you just click boof
456
00:13:55,420 --> 00:13:57,540
and it'll send it to your client.
457
00:13:57,540 --> 00:13:59,240
Here's the opportunity we found.
458
00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:01,140
We call it rate insurance.
459
00:14:01,140 --> 00:14:02,040
So your clients are covered with
460
00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:02,340
rate insurance.
461
00:14:02,340 --> 00:14:03,860
And then you get any renewal
462
00:14:03,860 --> 00:14:04,140
opportunities.
463
00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:05,920
And then there'll also be an email
464
00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:10,060
in there with, in that same email,
your daily non -negotiables that
465
00:14:10,060 --> 00:14:11,740
you told the system to hold you
accountable for.
466
00:14:11,740 --> 00:14:13,200
So we have the deal finder.
467
00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:14,960
Then we have compare my lenders,
468
00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:15,500
which I love.
469
00:14:15,620 --> 00:14:16,040
These two haven't been launched
470
00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:16,180
yet.
471
00:14:16,180 --> 00:14:18,280
They're on my build for next week.
472
00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:20,840
I'm already in probably 20 and 30
hours on these, on each.
473
00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:22,040
Clients want to see scenarios.
474
00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:22,600
They want to see choices.
475
00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:24,680
They want to know if they have
choices.
476
00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:27,660
They don't want you to just tell
them, hey, we're going here
477
00:14:27,660 --> 00:14:28,600
because of this.
478
00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:29,820
I've done that and I've been
479
00:14:29,820 --> 00:14:30,040
burned.
480
00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:31,480
And then they told me, hey, we
481
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:32,720
felt like you were pushing us into
one.
482
00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:35,760
I'm like, yeah, because I knew
that was where you should go.
483
00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:38,940
And they're like, but we just
would have liked to see the
484
00:14:38,940 --> 00:14:39,020
choices.
485
00:14:39,020 --> 00:14:40,340
And I'm like, yeah, you're right.
486
00:14:40,340 --> 00:14:41,080
I should have done that.
487
00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:42,400
So then I changed my whole
488
00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:43,160
business around that.
489
00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:44,740
I just started showing people
490
00:14:44,740 --> 00:14:47,020
where to go and let them decide.
491
00:14:47,180 --> 00:14:47,980
So this will do that.
492
00:14:47,980 --> 00:14:51,340
So it's going to have your, let's
say you're up against CIBC and you
493
00:14:51,340 --> 00:14:52,540
have Scotia and you have MCAP.
494
00:14:52,540 --> 00:14:54,940
You throw those up there and then
495
00:14:54,940 --> 00:14:59,600
it's going to, you can toggle on
and off the pros and cons to each
496
00:14:59,780 --> 00:14:59,840
lender.
497
00:14:59,840 --> 00:15:00,260
So register survivorship,
498
00:15:00,260 --> 00:15:01,580
prepayment privileges, IRD
penalties, you know, bonafide
499
00:15:01,580 --> 00:15:03,600
sales clause, like all the pros
and cons you can toggle on and off
500
00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:06,610
to tell the story you want to tell
between those lenders.
501
00:15:06,610 --> 00:15:08,550
And we've built up all the pros
and cons of that.
502
00:15:08,550 --> 00:15:10,130
We have a lender cheat sheet,
lender library, whatever you want
503
00:15:10,210 --> 00:15:13,230
to call it, that we crowdsource
within all of our agents and some
504
00:15:13,330 --> 00:15:13,490
other people.
505
00:15:13,490 --> 00:15:14,650
We brought all their data in to.
506
00:15:14,650 --> 00:15:17,590
This one spot, all the good and
bad of all the lenders out there.
507
00:15:17,590 --> 00:15:19,170
And we put it into our compare our
lender tool.
508
00:15:19,170 --> 00:15:22,190
So now every file you work on,
doesn't matter if it's a high
509
00:15:22,190 --> 00:15:24,450
ratio, buy and sell, investment
property, whatever it is, you have
510
00:15:24,610 --> 00:15:27,290
the option now to show one, two,
three lenders, compare against
511
00:15:27,290 --> 00:15:29,250
each other and showcase this to
your client.
512
00:15:29,250 --> 00:15:29,590
So awesome.
513
00:15:29,590 --> 00:15:30,550
Like I've been doing this with my
514
00:15:30,550 --> 00:15:32,410
budgeting, my Google sheet budgets
for my entire career.
515
00:15:32,410 --> 00:15:33,450
We just brought that on.
516
00:15:33,450 --> 00:15:36,310
crazy steroids into a portal so
517
00:15:36,310 --> 00:15:38,590
now the team can use it all.
518
00:15:38,590 --> 00:15:39,670
This podcast brought to you by
519
00:15:39,670 --> 00:15:39,910
Americana.
520
00:15:39,910 --> 00:15:41,950
So built that on there and that'll
521
00:15:41,950 --> 00:15:42,770
go live shortly here.
522
00:15:42,770 --> 00:15:45,770
We have a whole brand new portal
523
00:15:45,770 --> 00:15:48,150
we built using AI for our team and
it's called the TeamWidly Toolkit.
524
00:15:48,310 --> 00:15:50,570
It's all the tools you need to run
your business.
525
00:15:50,570 --> 00:15:53,390
And we keep, we prioritize them
and then the agents come in and
526
00:15:53,390 --> 00:15:57,720
they have this list where they can
put their dream board and they go,
527
00:15:57,720 --> 00:15:58,600
we want this, this, this.
528
00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:00,220
And then we vote on it and
529
00:16:00,220 --> 00:16:01,020
eventually we'll just.
530
00:16:01,020 --> 00:16:03,360
prioritize which ones if it makes
531
00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:06,420
sense for us to build or which
one's just noise and wasted time
532
00:16:06,420 --> 00:16:11,820
but the goal is for you to have a
toolkit of tools we've all built
533
00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:15,940
for you which we are we're there
we're just going to keep
534
00:16:15,940 --> 00:16:19,780
perfecting this thing but that's
what i'm using ai for and quite
535
00:16:19,780 --> 00:16:22,260
spectacular we have an
accountability partner we built
536
00:16:22,260 --> 00:16:28,120
into our portal so you click the
days you want to do certain things
537
00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:31,700
reach out to realtors this day do
my reels this day do my opens this
538
00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:37,400
day dude and then you click hold
me accountable and then every day
539
00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:38,620
you get an email that holds you
accountable.
540
00:16:38,620 --> 00:16:40,260
And as you click that, you finish
things.
541
00:16:40,260 --> 00:16:42,900
It finishes the loop, the ring
loop, like, you know, on the
542
00:16:42,900 --> 00:16:43,020
iPhone.
543
00:16:43,020 --> 00:16:43,580
OK, you're done.
544
00:16:43,740 --> 00:16:45,020
You got your steps in.
545
00:16:45,020 --> 00:16:45,660
You did your opens.
546
00:16:45,660 --> 00:16:45,980
Congratulations.
547
00:16:45,980 --> 00:16:46,860
You're on a seven day streak.
548
00:16:46,860 --> 00:16:48,620
So it's an accountability partner
built in there.
549
00:16:48,620 --> 00:16:50,020
All of our training platforms all
built in there.
550
00:16:50,100 --> 00:16:53,810
I'll be showcasing all this when
it's all live, like some of the
551
00:16:53,810 --> 00:16:54,690
pieces I'm going to start
showcasing.
552
00:16:54,690 --> 00:16:56,650
But just to show you and give you
inspiration doesn't mean like,
553
00:16:56,650 --> 00:16:57,910
hey, come join us.
554
00:16:57,910 --> 00:16:58,690
It's like, look at the things you
555
00:16:58,690 --> 00:16:59,810
can do.
556
00:16:59,810 --> 00:17:01,030
But I've also thrown myself in
557
00:17:01,030 --> 00:17:01,490
that world.
558
00:17:01,490 --> 00:17:04,609
And what I do see is I see a lot
559
00:17:04,609 --> 00:17:08,550
of agents going down the AI path
and they're building Mickey Mouse
560
00:17:08,550 --> 00:17:08,750
stuff.
561
00:17:08,750 --> 00:17:09,290
They're solving problems.
562
00:17:09,290 --> 00:17:11,250
They're trying to build software
to solve problems they don't
563
00:17:11,250 --> 00:17:11,589
actually have.
564
00:17:11,589 --> 00:17:12,650
Build little apps and things that
565
00:17:12,650 --> 00:17:14,369
what cuts two minutes off every
file.
566
00:17:14,369 --> 00:17:17,410
And instead, you still haven't put
out your social media for the day.
567
00:17:17,410 --> 00:17:19,609
You still haven't talked to 10
people for the day.
568
00:17:19,609 --> 00:17:22,300
So like this is the next thing
people are doing to try to avoid
569
00:17:22,300 --> 00:17:23,140
doing the basic stuff.
570
00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:25,240
So it's just a word of caution.
571
00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:27,700
You still need to do the basic
boring stuff in your business, the
572
00:17:27,700 --> 00:17:30,080
relationship -based stuff, the
building your brand stuff.
573
00:17:30,300 --> 00:17:33,260
And if you're trying to automate
all that, what the fuck does that
574
00:17:33,260 --> 00:17:33,580
mean?
Like, stop.
575
00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:37,220
And there's going to be people out
there slinging this stuff in front
576
00:17:37,220 --> 00:17:39,460
of you, going, automate the
workflows, automate the thing.
577
00:17:39,460 --> 00:17:42,000
Yes, there are things AI will come
in with your client journey and
578
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:43,680
your social media content workflow
and stuff like that.
579
00:17:43,740 --> 00:17:45,720
But like, you still have to do the
basics, right?
580
00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:48,920
It's going to be a long time till
we get away from that.
581
00:17:49,290 --> 00:17:50,970
We had an opportunity here before
we get into this podcast brought
582
00:17:50,970 --> 00:17:51,910
to you by Americana.
583
00:17:51,910 --> 00:17:54,150
We had an opportunity with social
584
00:17:54,150 --> 00:17:56,810
media and you still do like
massive opportunity.
585
00:17:56,810 --> 00:18:00,230
Social media is, but you need to
become a student of the game.
586
00:18:00,230 --> 00:18:02,030
You need to understand that
everything you want.
587
00:18:02,030 --> 00:18:04,850
is on a brand on social.
588
00:18:04,970 --> 00:18:05,830
Everything you want your business
589
00:18:05,830 --> 00:18:06,270
to be.
590
00:18:06,270 --> 00:18:07,550
The best marketer always wins.
591
00:18:07,550 --> 00:18:09,790
You hear me say this all the time.
592
00:18:09,790 --> 00:18:10,970
It's so true.
593
00:18:10,970 --> 00:18:12,190
So put on your marketing hat.
594
00:18:12,190 --> 00:18:13,830
But how many of you have thrown
595
00:18:13,830 --> 00:18:17,260
yourself into social media world?
A lot of you are consuming, but
596
00:18:17,260 --> 00:18:17,840
you're not creating.
597
00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:19,140
I create way more than I consume.
598
00:18:19,140 --> 00:18:21,280
And are you a creator or a
consumer?
599
00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:23,540
Well, if you're a consumer, you're
falling into their trap.
600
00:18:23,540 --> 00:18:24,260
So, hey, great.
601
00:18:24,260 --> 00:18:28,120
We can sell you a bunch of shit
602
00:18:28,120 --> 00:18:28,420
through ads.
603
00:18:28,420 --> 00:18:29,920
Thanks for being on the platform.
604
00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:31,840
The creators are the ones who are
making ripples.
605
00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:33,580
Everyone's making the money.
606
00:18:33,580 --> 00:18:36,560
And so did you become, do you
607
00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:38,420
understand the hook, the visual
hook?
608
00:18:38,420 --> 00:18:44,300
Did you watch training on YouTube
and all the infos out there on how
609
00:18:44,300 --> 00:18:48,040
to build a brand on social, how to
make a mortgage brand?
610
00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:49,720
Have you talked to people who have
already done it?
611
00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:52,760
Have you sat down with them?
Have you asked them for advice?
612
00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:57,920
Have you actually tried it all?
Have you kept track of what's
613
00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:00,380
working and what's not?
Because there's already people
614
00:19:00,380 --> 00:19:03,340
winning at it in our space.
615
00:19:03,340 --> 00:19:04,600
So why are they winning at it and
616
00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:07,840
you're not?
A lot of times it's just your
617
00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:09,680
content's not good and it's not
consistent.
618
00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:11,680
So how do you get it good and
consistent?
619
00:19:11,780 --> 00:19:13,500
But you have to become a student
of the game.
620
00:19:13,500 --> 00:19:13,920
Same with AI.
621
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:15,900
It's going to be the same thing.
622
00:19:15,900 --> 00:19:18,440
A bunch of you are going to go,
hey, I got these AI things.
623
00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:20,160
But you're just going to dabble.
624
00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:22,580
And you're not going to actually
625
00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:23,900
go learn.
626
00:19:23,900 --> 00:19:26,320
Because A, maybe you're just lazy.
627
00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:27,100
Maybe you're looking for
shortcuts.
628
00:19:27,100 --> 00:19:29,120
Or maybe you're not that
interested, which is cool.
629
00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:29,860
And that's okay.
630
00:19:29,860 --> 00:19:30,620
You don't have to.
631
00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:31,460
But just be cautious.
632
00:19:31,460 --> 00:19:32,120
Because you're going to go think
633
00:19:32,120 --> 00:19:33,360
this is going to change your
business.
634
00:19:33,360 --> 00:19:34,880
And AI won't.
635
00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:36,540
AI is not going to fix a shitty
636
00:19:36,540 --> 00:19:36,760
business.
637
00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:39,410
Like, the fundamentals of business
638
00:19:39,410 --> 00:19:40,270
will never change.
639
00:19:40,270 --> 00:19:42,150
So if you have a shit business,
640
00:19:42,390 --> 00:19:44,330
you just think you're going to
what?
641
00:19:44,330 --> 00:19:46,730
Pop on to Claude, Claude Code, and
go build a mortgage business?
642
00:19:46,730 --> 00:19:49,450
Oh my God, you're going to waste
time, money, and your business is
643
00:19:49,450 --> 00:19:50,270
just going to keep on getting
shittier.
644
00:19:50,270 --> 00:19:52,990
If you have an actual business,
then you can layer some of this
645
00:19:52,990 --> 00:19:53,530
stuff in.
646
00:19:53,530 --> 00:19:56,450
But you need to go learn how to do
647
00:19:56,450 --> 00:19:56,630
it.
648
00:19:56,630 --> 00:19:58,610
You don't just jump on and blah,
649
00:19:58,610 --> 00:19:59,890
blah, type this in and that.
650
00:19:59,890 --> 00:20:00,310
It's dangerous.
651
00:20:00,430 --> 00:20:01,750
You could get the wrong outputs,
and you could also...
652
00:20:01,750 --> 00:20:04,550
You know, your business could go
by the wayside because all of a
653
00:20:04,550 --> 00:20:06,630
sudden mom or dad's over here
doing this stuff and geeking out
654
00:20:06,630 --> 00:20:07,740
on this.
655
00:20:07,740 --> 00:20:08,760
And if you're going in to learn it
656
00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:11,480
for a specific thing you want to
fix in your business, I get it.
657
00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:13,480
But a lot of you are just out
there like trying all this random
658
00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:15,480
shit and I don't even know what
you're doing.
659
00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:18,620
Like, what do you need fixed in
your business?
660
00:20:18,620 --> 00:20:21,000
What do you want AI?
Like, can you clearly articulate
661
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:22,240
that?
Same as can you clearly articulate
662
00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:25,320
your value adds to clients?
So I put you on the spot.
663
00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:27,000
We did this.
664
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:28,600
I did this at a...
665
00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:31,300
It's a training thing I spoke at
years back and we was like a
666
00:20:31,300 --> 00:20:31,900
little exercise we did.
667
00:20:31,900 --> 00:20:35,560
And there was like eight of us
668
00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:38,170
around just shooting the shit
after.
669
00:20:38,170 --> 00:20:38,950
It was in Vancouver.
670
00:20:38,950 --> 00:20:40,470
And I just very quickly went and I
671
00:20:40,790 --> 00:20:46,490
said, hey, why would I work with
you for 20 to 30 base point
672
00:20:46,490 --> 00:20:47,470
premium?
Go. What are your value adds?
673
00:20:47,470 --> 00:20:49,950
Not one of the brokers could
fucking have it all off their
674
00:20:49,950 --> 00:20:50,130
tongue.
675
00:20:50,130 --> 00:20:52,670
They're like, I'm like, ask me.
676
00:20:52,670 --> 00:20:55,230
And it's just like, because I've
worked on it.
677
00:20:55,230 --> 00:20:56,490
I've had a lot of calls.
678
00:20:56,490 --> 00:20:58,370
went through the training of what
679
00:20:58,770 --> 00:21:01,750
do I actually, why would someone,
would I work with myself for a 30
680
00:21:01,830 --> 00:21:03,270
basis point deficit?
Would I?
681
00:21:03,270 --> 00:21:05,010
I need to answer that question.
682
00:21:05,010 --> 00:21:07,100
It's like, what are you going to
683
00:21:07,100 --> 00:21:08,380
use on social?
Who are you trying to serve?
684
00:21:08,380 --> 00:21:10,400
Who's your avatar you're making
the content towards?
685
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:11,800
You need to know that.
686
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:13,300
It's not someone who needs a
687
00:21:13,300 --> 00:21:13,460
mortgage.
688
00:21:13,460 --> 00:21:15,040
These are things you need to know.
689
00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:17,380
And now AI is extremely powerful,
but what problem are you trying to
690
00:21:17,380 --> 00:21:17,900
solve?
Like, these are questions you
691
00:21:17,900 --> 00:21:19,620
should ask yourself.
692
00:21:19,620 --> 00:21:21,500
I just gave you the three, like,
693
00:21:21,500 --> 00:21:23,540
what are your value adds?
