Episodes
The Dead Client Goldmine
Every broker has a back book of past clients, but checking whether even one client can refinance means pulling their rate, LVR and lender and comparing it against dozens of products. Multiply that by hundreds of clients and it's a full-time job nobody does — so the commission just sits there, and clients drift to competitors.
The Declined Pile Is a Lead List
Declined applications get filed and forgotten — even though most are timing or lender-fit problems, not dead ends. In a demo book of 70 declined files, 47 had passed their return window and not one had been recontacted.
The Retention Radar
Clients quietly leave at fixed-rate expiry or when a competitor calls first — and you find out after the discharge.
The 60-Second Responder
The broker who responds first wins the deal — but you can't answer every enquiry while you're in appointments.
The Clawback Shield
Clients who refinance or discharge inside 24 months trigger clawbacks that quietly eat your commission.
The Pre-Approval Death Clock
Pre-approvals lapse silently after 90 days. Clients lose confidence, lose the property, or start again with another broker.
The Referral Partner Decay Alarm
Referral relationships fade without anyone noticing — until the pipeline dries up and you can't say why.
