GOING MOBILE! “ Going Mobile”is a hit song by The Who (right), recorded and released in 1972, first as a 45 rpm single and then as one of the songs on the vinyl record album “ Who’ s Next.”A lot of things have changed since then, especially with technology. Today you can download “ Going Mobile”right to your mobile phone!

And as mobile technology continues to grow in popularity, your business can be downloaded onto your personal contacts mobile phones too!

Mobile applications are beginning to evolve and integrate into the day-to-day marketing by LoanStar originators. Following the recent promotion of the Mortgage Mapp mobile application for loan officers in May, a few loan stars have put the technology to use (see “ Who’ s Gone Mobile” ). The mobile app firm has extended their generous 25% off the regular subscription price to LoanStar through the end of July. If you’ re interested in going mobile, contact George at Mortgage Mapp (425) 947-9282.

Event Promotions

Marketing consistently and correctly is one of the best things you can do for yourself and your business. There are many ways to do this and at LoanStar we provide our Loan Officers the opportunity , tools, and concierge support they need to be as successful as possible. One of the best practices is event promotions.

Building relationships through event sponsorships EVENT PROMOTION SUCCESS

By Mikayla Morgan, Regional Marketing Manager

One key marketing tool the LoanStar marketing team wants to make more available to all is the opportunity to build a presence and reputation in your desired territory/city/neighborhood with PR and Sponsorship options. Last week the Vancouver Branch pitched in to be a Hole Sponsor for the 12th Annual Greater Vancouver Chamber of Commerce Golf Tournament. These type of events are perfect to build our LoanStar presence as a whole, as well as build personal and team presence along with the opportunity to add contacts to the database by drawings, giveaways and games.

PROMOTION STARTED WITH A PLAN The theme of this particular golf tournament was “ Golf’ s a Circus” . Each hole was encouraged to decorate their area to go along with the theme. Our marketing department helped with the entire implementation, planning and prepping of the tournament and handled all of the logistics. All the Vancouver branch had to do was show up, shake hands and kiss babies!

HAVE SOME FUN! At last week’ s tournament we had a Frisbee toss game with $5 Starbucks cards as a prize, a $50 Visa card drawing, and everyone who gave us their business card/information was entered to win the company iPad 4 “ Springstakes” drawing. This was a great way to engage everyone that came through and now we have data to follow up on after the tournament is a distant memory!

To learn more about networking or sponsorship opportunities, contact your Marketing Concierge and we will do everything needed to get it going for you. Each and every opportunity to promote yourself and LoanStar is going to improve our image and brand recognition and help us all win the origination game!

CAPTURE NETWORKING LEADS At the Greater Vancouver Chamber Golf Tournament the LoanStar Marketing Team created a fun and interactive event that generated follow up contacts and increased LoanStar’ s image in the community. (TOP) Mikayla Morgan and Kayla Bowker wore circus animal ears to go with the tournament theme.

(TOP LEFT) Anna Linder, Kayla and Mikayla pose with a guest.

(TOP RIGHT & BOTTOM LEFT) The LoanStar Sponsored Hole had our LoanStar logo and colors and one of our local moving company partners, Two Brothers, brought a moving truck to act as a “ circus animal cage”to tie in the theme and reinforce our moving promotion campaign.

IN THE NEWS LoanStar Home Lending Press Clippings

CHRISMAN REPORT, Thursday, April 17, 2014

How does a new mortgage bank more than double in size in its first three months of existence? "For LoanStar Home Lending, born and raised in Portland, Oregon just last November, the recipe is quite simple: Take some of the longest tenured mortgage pros on the West Coast, blend with lots of capital from Texas, engage top tier correspondent investors, add a robust dose of marketing done for the originators, and top it off with an efficiency culture where originators originate, processors process, and marketing markets. ‘ Our vision of how LoanStar helps originators grow their business is by concentrating on originating loans and building relationships, and is attracting nearly every originator in all our markets,' says Mike Baldwin, President & CEO. Baldwin is building his fourth mortgage bank in the last 30 years and has a regional 'who's who' on the management team, including John Giagiari, SVP Production for California, who has already brought on eight originators to LoanStar and matched them with Intero Real Estate offices in Northern California. LoanStar is hiring aggressively to fill or start branches in the Puget Sound, Portland, Southern California, Boise and Phoenix area. Contact Kenn Bartley, SVP Business Development at kbartley@GoLoanStar.com for more information.

CHRISMAN REPORT, Monday, April 21, 2014

On the jobs front, last week the commentary mentioned the explosive growth of LoanStar Home Lending but did not mention that SVP California Production John Giagiari is also aggressively looking for originators in Northern California. John said "I have seven more Intero Real Estate offices to place originators and need to fill those spots immediately!" John can be reached at Jgiagiari@GoLoanStar.com. LoanStar Home Lending CEO Mike Baldwin has assembled a proverbial all-star team out west to grow the company. LoanStar leaders include Les Bedford (lbedford@GoLoanStar.com) as the SVP Production for Washington. Les is the 2014 President of the Washington Mortgage Lenders Association and over the last 35 years has built and managed successful, high producing teams. Greg Haase (ghaase@GoLoanStar.com) is the SVP Production for Oregon and Idaho and is expanding to new digs in Vancouver, WA and opening a new branch in Boise in May. And in Southern California, Marcelo Curt (mcurt@GoLoanStar.com) recently joined LoanStar as that region's Sales Manager and is building teams throughout SoCal. "Contact any of these seasoned sales management gurus to find out why LoanStar is growing like wildfire on the West Coast!"
