Ever chased a lead, called twice, and written them off when they didn’t respond? We’ve seen it happen again and again with loan officers who are frustrated in this market. We all want instant gratification, but most of our consistent, profitable business will come from the long game.

The problem? If you don’t have the discipline, follow-up systems, and mindset to stay in the hunt for months, you’re handing deals to your competitors.

That’s why we had to bring on Dave Panozzo—a decorated U.S. Army veteran, $100M+ real estate producer, lifestyle performance coach, and co-leader of one of Arizona’s top real estate teams. Dave rebuilt from losing everything in 2008 to running a 25-agent, nationally recognized team. His approach to lead conversion, personal discipline, and removing toxic influences is exactly what loan officers need to thrive right now and adapt to market changes.

Here’s what you’ll take away from this episode:

1️⃣ How to master the long game in lead follow-up so you stay top-of-mind for 7–9 months until your clients are ready to move.

2️⃣ Strategies to build daily discipline that stacks small wins every morning and fuels consistent production all year.

3️⃣ How to remove the “commission breath” by leading with service and creating human connections that earn repeat and referral business for life.

If you’re serious about turning every lead into a long-term client and building a business that lasts through any market, this conversation will provide unmatched value
