Mortgage Note$ can help you:

- Get Noticed
- Be Remembered
- Increase your referral and repeat business
- Be THE recognized expert in your market
- Crush your competition

The list goes on. That's why so many of the top mortgage companies in the USA use them; that's why you need one -- especially in today's competitive market. But if you're like most mortgage originators today you have neither the time nor the money to dedicate to producing your own newsletter.

Mortgage Note$ can help you do the following:

- Assure repeat business
- Guarantee referral business
- Keep yourself in your client's mind, even when you are not around
- Have your marketing tools kept, read, and used by real estate professionals
- Position yourself as a partner with the real estate community
- Eliminate your ineffective traditional marketing materials
- Build a reputation as a loan originator who helps your clients be successful
- Build loyalty in your clients
- Get into real estate offices that are closed to other loan originators
- Position you as the home loan expert in your market
- Save the thousands of dollars and the hundreds of hours usually associated with development of your own newsletter
- Deploy a powerful marketing program that rivals those of the "big players" in the mortgage market

Competition for home loan business is getting tougher for mortgage brokers as the new millenium approaches.

By deploying powerful - and expensive - marketing weapons like a custom newsletter, the "big players" in the mortgage industry have mortgage brokers fighting for their very survival. Lacking the time, resources and the money to produce their own newsletters, most mortgage brokers have had to resort to traditional, increasingly ineffective marketing strategies - until now.

As part of our continuing efforts to develop high quality, low-cost marketing materials for mortgage professionals, Real Presentations(R) is offering exclusive distributorships of our MORTGAGE NOTE$(TM) newsletter to qualified mortgage companies throughout the USA. With Mortgage Note$, your office can have a high quality, low cost "custom" newsletter that will help you create and maintain regular contacts with homeowners, home buyers and real estate professionals.

Marketing experts agree, a custom newsletter is one of the most effective ways to stay in touch with your clients, increase your business, and prove your expertise. Used as a regular mailer and as a hand-out, a MORTGAGE NOTE$(TM) newsletter can be a powerful marketing weapon that will help you not only compete against the "big players," it will make you stand out as the home loan expert in your market.

In short, Mortgage Note$ is a vital weapon for the mortgage broker's marketing arsenal.

What makes a newsletter work when other marketing materials fail is that it provides information that is valuable and useful to the reader. Though a newsletter does not blatantly sell a product - such as an ad or a flyer - by reading the newsletter, a prospect is encouraged to use your services. In fact, studies conducted by Real Presentations(R) show that a mailed newsletter is much more likely to attract business than traditional marketing tools used by mortgage professionals. Real estate professionals and borrowers agree that they are likely to read - and keep - a newsletter while they are likely to throw away flyers, ads and other advertising materials without even looking at them.

MORTGAGE NOTE$(TM) is an innovative newsletter designed to strengthen the relationship between loan originators and the real estate community. The two-page newsletter targets homeowners and home buyers - but it is specially designed so it can be distributed through real estate agents.

A quality marketing tool which covers items and issues related to real estate and home loans, you can distribute Mortgage Note$ directly to consumers, or to consumers through your real estate agents! By allowing your real estate agents to distribute MORTGAGE NOTE$(TM), they promote themselves and you. This will not only position you as the home loan expert in your market, it will also position you as a partner with your real estate agent customers.

Expert analysis, current events

Each issue of MORTGAGE NOTE$(TM) will address issues of interest to homeowners, home buyers and real estate professionals, For example, each month MORTGAGE NOTE$(TM) addresses common questions consumers have of mortgage professionals, such as: What is negative amortization? How do I know when refinancing is for me? What should I bring to a loan application? How do I maximize my purchasing power? How do I find the best real estate agent? What are points? Market news and current events affecting home ownership and the real estate industry are also regular features of MORTGAGE NOTE$(TM).

Each issue of Mortgage Note$ contains information that is vital for successfully taking advantage of current market conditions.

For example, Market Watch is a regular feature of MORTGAGE NOTE$(TM) which provides a summary of current interest rate information and real estate trends. Also included in this section is analysis of what economists and industry experts expect to happen in the mortgage market in the near future. Mortgage Note$ attempts to accentuate the positive side of any market, and provides valuable tips for helping your targets avoid the negative aspects of any given market.

Written and produced industry experts
Copy for MORTGAGE NOTE$® is written by the real estate and mortgage professionals at Real Presentations®. Articles are based on:

- Analyzing and reporting on information pulled from news wires, trade publications, and other industry-related publications;

- Analyzing and reporting on research, articles, and press releases from NAR, CAR, FNMA, FHLMC, CAMB, MBA and other industry organizations.

With your Office Custom Distributorship, Real Presentations® will customize the newsletter specifically to your specifications. We will include your company name, phone, address and even custom promotional messages throughout the newsletter. For example, on the Front Page, we place your company name in the masthead and include a custom business-card-sized advertisement. The size of this ad is important. It's just large enough for your real estate agents to paste their card and distribute -- as long as they leave the rest of your customization intact. The top third of the Back Page is designed for mailing information, if you want to use Mortgage Note$ as an envelope-free mailer. We can also include more promotional messages here. Finally, there's also a space for additional customization in the body of the Back Page.

The benefits of a newsletter program can be great, but the expense and time you put into it could be astranomical. Fortunately, Mortgage Note$ provides you an effective, efficient, and in-expensive way to implement a powerful agency-quality marketing tool.

Contracting an agency to produce a custom two-page newsletter can cost up to $1,200 per issue. Researching, designing, developing, and producing your own newsletter can take inordinate amounts of time and resources that exceed even the cost of hiring an agency to produce your newsletter. But distributors of MORTGAGE NOTE$(TM) can have their own "custom" newsletter for as little as $125 per issue, with little or no production time.

In short, Mortgage Note$ is a cost-effective marketing tool for mortgage originators that is efficient, effective, and inexpensive.

To eliminate sometimes exorbitant printing costs, MORTGAGE NOTE$(TM) is developed for optimum reproduction on copy machines. That means with MORTGAGE NOTE$(TM) you have the option to have a printer run your newsletter for you, or you can save yourself thousands of dollars a year by printing your newsletter yourself. Either way, you will have an attractive, professional custom newsletter.

Real Presentations® will send by First Class Mail camera-ready artwork for one newsletter each month of your distributorship. Each issue will be fully customized with your office information, including: company name, address, phone, personal photo, and custom promotional messages.

Email marketing is the most efficient -- and can be a highly effective -- way to stay close to your customers and prospects. The only problem with email marketing is that so many mortgage organization companies have abused email to the point that it's not unusual to receive dozens of "Lowest mortgage rates ever" or "Refinance Now" junk emails a day. However, you can stand above all others by actually providing something of value to your customers and prospects via email: a Mortgage Note$ e-newsletter packed with important information that your targets will appreciate.

If you're interested in using Mortgage Note$ as an e-newsletter that you can distribute by email or through your web site, Real Presentations can deliver your custom newsletter in PDF format via email. You can then instantly broadcast your Mortgage Note$ e-newsletter to all your customers and prospects via email.

There's an additional cost for preparing the file; but, what you'll end up with is a powerful communications tool that sets you apart as THE mortgage expert in your market and that makes you the first person your prospects think of when they think "home loan".
