If you want to build a business that can work without you, you are in the right place. 

Keep reading:

If...

- You feel stuck.
- Your agency is at full capacity
- You want to grow the business, but you don't know how.
- You work with high-ticket clients so it’s all pretty manual.
- Your staff makes mistakes and misses deadlines all the time.
- You do great work, but your client relationship deteriorates over time.
- You feel like the whole business is completely reliant on you to do everything.

I can help you.

I was like you a few years ago.

It's stressful.

Good news is, I got through the tough days before and ended up exiting the business for a $7m payout in 2021.

But before I tell you how automation can fix all your problems,

Here's who I am and why you should care

Ed here. I sold my business for $7 million in 2021.

After that, I decided to start an automation agency to help other businesses scale, as I did.

The same thing I did to scale and exit my business before will work for you now: AUTOMATION!

Here are 3 reasons why it can help you:

1) Automation can do things in 1-minute that would take a human hours.

Think about all those backend tasks your staff struggles with. They should all be automated.

Once you pull the trigger, the automation is working 24/7 and does the job perfectly every time.

2) You can have a fully automated system live in less than 2 weeks.

Just map out tasks and start building. You’ll see the benefits instantly. 

To do things manually, you have to spend hours per day getting updates from staff. Such a waste of time. 

What if you had a dashboard on your phone that gave you full visibility across all projects, without having to check in on staff?

3) Automation is the best investment you can make.

Suppose you can handle 30 clients a year.

Your client LTV is $20,000.

If you have ZERO systems in place right now...

An investment in some simple automations would increase your capacity by 10-30% in the next 2 weeks. 

You'll take on an extra $60,000 to $180,000 worth of clients as a result.

Sounds great, right? 

So, I will be your Chief Automation Officer! 

I will:

- Create a business capability map that outlines everything you do every day.
- Tell you which processes should be automated, and which ones shouldn't to make sure you can spend as much time as possible with clients.
- Build the automated system for you in the most efficient and cost-effective way possible.
- Monitor the system 24/7 and fix bugs without you having to ask.

Sales saved my life. 

In 1985, my parents and I emigrated Iran for better opportunities in the United States. 

We left everything and everyone. 

My mom could not get a job at McDonald’s and my Father was earning $3.75 an hour as a shoe salesman. 

We lived in a 600 sq foot apartment and moved multiple times and by the age of 14, I was working. 

I started off as a car porter and janitor and then learned how to market and rent apartments and then eventually sell cars (all by the age of 18).

School was not my thing. 

I barely graduated high school (1.7 GPA). 

I dropped out of college. 

I became a telemarketer for a small mortgage brokerage 

I made over 50,000+ cold calls and quickly became the top telemarketer in the country. 

English is my second language, but sales is my first language. 

I became BUY-lingual. 

At the age of 25, I purchased my first property: a 17-unit apartment building for $1M that I still own today and amassed 100 units before ever leaving my parents home. 

As a residential loan officer, I’ve also personally funded over $1B in home loan volume and $100M+ yearly from 2019 to 2022 alone. 

As a Co-Founder and CEO of GO! Coaching, we achieved 8 figure yearly revenue within four years of inception (all through impacting hundreds of careers). 

And as the Chief Growth Officer of Lower.com, a multi-channel fintech mortgage lender, we recently raised $100M in Series A funding (the largest in Ohio state history) to help catapult us in becoming a top 5 lender by 2030. 

Not bad for an immigrant kid from Iran. 

Selling is the most important skill you must seek. 

Understanding how to illustrate your value verbally, visually and textually, will open doors you won’t believe. 

And I’m walking proof.  

And if you’ve read this far, I have a promise for you: 

Every day, I will share one specific business gem to help you think better, do better, and to be better.  

I do, I learn, I share. 

Let's win together. 

🤜🤛

Here’s the thing about growth: 

It rarely happens alone.

‍(By the way, this is copy-pasted from a recent newsletter, which you can read at my bio link)

This past month, at our Fall GrowthCon event (which sold out) and surrounded by hundreds of high-performing Loan Officers, one truth stood out…

A powerful environment is everything.

It’s infectious.

It’s inspiring.

And it’s necessary. 

You can have the best strategy, the perfect systems, and all the motivation in the world…

But if the people around you aren’t pushing you forward, you’ll eventually stall.

That’s what we saw happen in real time.

Every conversation sparked a new idea.

Every connection challenged someone’s thinking.

And every person in the room left with their standards raised… 

Not just because of a new tactic or playbook they walked away with, but because of who they were around.

Because we were all lifting each other up.

A rising tide raises all ships. 

Growth isn’t just about doing more.

It’s about choosing rooms that require more of you.

So this week, ask yourself:
‍
Who’s in your room right now?

Are they challenging your comfort zone, or keeping you stagnant in it?

If you want to grow faster, start there.

"I'll figure it out."

That's one of the most powerful statements you can think and say in your life. 

It shows that you:

- Believe in your ability to win
- Are going to persist through trials
- Are prepared to learn from your mistakes

The most successful people I know in mortgages and other industries have had that mindset their entire lives.

We even have a saying on our team: "F.I.O."

Figure. It. Out. 

And the key to having it is staying in the game.

When you persist, you give yourself a chance.

When you give up, you have no chance at all.

Something I've found over and over again throughout my career and life:

1. The best salesperson is the one who's studying and practicing the art of sales in their free time.

2. The best speaker is the one who's doing toastmasters and watching YouTube videos on speaking.

3. The fittest person has a trainer, nutritionist, and routine they stick to at least 99% of the time.

Outward success is the tip of the iceberg.

What you do in private is the rest of it.

Dial that in, and you'll get to where you want to GO!

I'm not one of those coaches who's in his 20s. No kids, no wife, tons of time to grind.

Instead, I:

- Have duties as a husband
- Have duties as a father
- Have duties as a leader

One way I juggle all of those is by getting up early.

When you're awake before anyone else, you can:

- Catch up on work that slipped through the cracks
- Go deep on work because you have no distractions
- Get some much-needed reflection and alone time

Become an early riser for a few months.

One hour in the early morning is like getting four hours during the day. 

You'll find that it levels you up in many areas of your life.

“Mr. Maxwell: How can I become a great leader like you one day?

He paused for a moment, put his hand on my shoulder, and said:

“To lead and sharpen others, you must first lead and sharpen yourself. Great leadership is developed daily, not in a day. Design a personal growth plan and work on yourself every single day, because to lead tomorrow, you must learn today.”

Uh, wow.

This month, I’m re-reading John Maxwell’s “The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership.”

To say it’s incredible is an understatement.

The more I read, the more I realize how much further I have to go as a leader, but I’m committed to the daily discipline of becoming better for everyone around me.

As we head into Thanksgiving season, I want to thank all of you who’ve supported my daily posts here over the past four years.

My mission is to help my fellow Loan Officers not only become better at their craft, but better in their personal lives.

GO! Win.

My first 1,000 cold calls flopped. Hard. Instant hang-ups, hard no's, no real interest.

I sounded like Chewbacca from Star Wars. 

In my next 1,000, I closed two deals. 

Then I became one of the top cold callers in the country.

My first year of building started rough. Nothing came easy.

Years later, we were winning big every month, scaling quickly, and gaining traction. 

Everything is like this.

Take those early losses.

Those are your education and your rite of passage. 

And guess what: struggle gives success value. 

Love the losses.

Something I don't talk about enough: I am a believer in and a follower of God.

There's an idea in Christianity that you can't take credit for anything you do or anything you receive, because it's all Him who does it for you.

I couldn't agree more.

That doesn't mean you just wait around.

You have to:

- Show up daily 
- Execute relentlessly 
- Reflect to become wiser
- Seek others to go farther 
- Fail to learn lessons

But at the end of the day, you must have good intentions. 

God searches the heart and tests the mind to give rewards based on a person's deeds and conduct. 

Be righteous with your motives, grateful for anything you get, and keep faith that more is on the way.

One more video from the NAMB Battle of Coaches at Caesar's Plaza in Las Vegas. 

This was too much fun not to share again.

Also, big shout-out to my content team for capturing this memory in such a cool way. 

I'm getting hyped all over again watching it.

Let's GO!

Happy Sunday ✌🏼

More GO! meetups.

More good times had.

More connections made.

More people winning in the mortgage biz.

Grateful for everyone who showed up at this one.

Be the person who brings people together. 

I hope I see you at the next one!
