We’ve had clients reach $10,000 in loans after only being opened 3 weeks; within a year, $100,000 on a good week and generating $50,000/month in fees.
Online lending?
Sure. Lenders have costs. Payroll costs, utility costs, website costs, merchant processing, rent, legal, taxes, ID validation, LMS platforms, AI powered debt negotiation tools… but you get the picture.
A lender’s inventory is MONEY!
It’s not flowers that die on you. It’s not food that rots. It’s MONEY, MOOLAH, COIN, DINERO, SCRATCH, DOLLARS, EUROS... NICE!!
DONE! I’ve established that the business of lending money to the masses can be very profitable!
Raising Money
This is a mindset. It’s about the presentation. Practice getting good at distilling your idea into a bite-sized amount. Get your business launched. I’m not talking about immediately achieving scale. Just get your loan business open for business and fund a few loans. Storefront, Internet, monoline, combo… just fund a few loans!
Next?
Friends, family, peers, members of your network… will find out what you’re doing.
They will want to learn more. Don’t be shocked when they say something along the lines of, “I have $50K sitting in the bank earning 1% per year before taxes and inflation. Could you put my money to work in your new business? Of course, you can! Offer them 6%, 8%, 10%+ per year. You can afford it when you’re grossing 500%+ APRs on your loan portfolio!
Hiring Good People
If you’re good at raising capital, you can hire people to do everything else.
- You can hire a CEO.
- You can hire a lawyer.
- You can hire an experienced customer service representative.
- You can buy “off the shelf” loan management software.
- You can subscribe to a sub-prime consumer credit reporting service [CRA].
- You can hire great people to do any part of this business you choose to.
- YOU GET MY POINT!
To hire right, you need a big funnel. You have to sort through a ton of leads. You need a system; an on-boarding process. You’ve got to learn how to do this! [This intel is in our Course.]
The quality of your life is about the people around you.
Everything bad that happened to you in the last 10 years did not happen in a bubble. Someone either DID or DID NOT do something to you.
- That’s life.
- Most problems in life are people problems.
- We let the wrong – or right – people into our lives.
- In business, there are some whack jobs! Don’t let them in!
