Representative Accomplishments

Enhanced ComUnity’s business development strategy, tripling branch loan production to $120M per year. Company was missing out on a potentially lucrative market niche by focusing the majority of its business development activity on the retail sector. Initiated new strategy, personally soliciting wholesale prospects without the assistance or cost of an Account Executive. Increased production from $3M to $10M per month while saving $120K per year in commission expense. Became first to service both sectors, increasing branch profitability from $18K to $60K per month.

Initiated Best Practices at ComUnity branch, boosting service quality to increase client retention from 25% to 95%. In a robust market, few branch managers saw a need to cultivate customer relationships. Employed “total quality” approach to customer service, teaming with bank loan officers to achieve a more rapid turnaround of new loans and generally optimize overall services. Increased client retention almost four-fold, adding up to $600K per year to branch profits.

Introduced process improvements to American First, cross training branch teams to quadruple productivity. Company had combined retail and wholesale operations, not realizing the numerous inefficiencies that the system produced. Reorganized groups into two separate departments, enhancing customer focus to boost CSI. Introduced “Lean” concepts, reducing overall staffing costs by training sales/support teams to work effectively with both retail and wholesale clients. Also reduced employee turnover through improved professional development and building a “team” environment.

Devised new training strategy, improving ComUnity partner’s internal processes to double new business production. Errors in loan development process were significantly delaying business partner’s loan approval rates while driving up administrative costs on new loans. Teamed with affiliate branch, sponsoring in-house training course to quickly fix the problem. Significantly increased number of approved loans per month, with zero administrative expense for training.
