“You provided an inspiring and informative, positive session on going up the bar in today’s market! I am grateful for the opportunity that you and CitiMortgage are providing to "keep me on track" in the ever-changing environment of today’s market.”

— Fresno, CA

“I'm glad that I attended this event. I had been feeling beaten down due to the market conditions: No one really buying much, phone calls from clients upset that they are upside-down on their mortgages. It inspired me to get back into the game with a positive renewal to return to what I used to do before the deals were just dumped into my lap. So, I thoroughly enjoyed it and was enlightened!”

— Crofton, MD

“I went to the presentation; it was nothing short of AWESOME!! Dan Ervin is GREAT. I'm SO GLAD I went. I brought two Loan Officers with me — and it was a positive experience for them as well. We all left there motivated and talking about applying what we heard to our daily activities. Citi really sets themselves apart with events like this!”

— New York, NY

“Thanks for the “Juice.” I was motivated by your presentation. Your message could not have come at a
better time.”

— Tempe, AZ

“I just wanted to let you know what a huge success the Connect Event has been for our company. Of the 500 Realtors in attendance, 200 hundred did not know much about our company nor done a transaction with us. They came based on our joint market campaign looking for motivation. They left with the feeling that our company is here for them and pumped up to sell. The net result: 200 more Realtors that now want to do business with us!”

— San Jose, CA

“Thanks for inviting me to hear Dan speak. I thought the seminar was AWESOME! Dan was a very entertaining, charismatic and down-to-earth presenter/speaker! What I got from his message was what I (and I’m sure many others) needed — an honest, sincere and gentle kick in the butt and the realization that you can be successful in this market, but it does take hard work and perseverance, and you need an added edge to set you apart from the others. I was glad for the introduction to BOOM. I am going to purchase the program and commit to using it! I left Dan's presentation with a desire to do better and continue to improve upon my business!”

— Minneapolis, MN

“I am so happy I attended your motivational outcry (speech/seminar is too weak a description). I just passed my state exam and have been interviewing brokers for three weeks going on the fourth week. It’s a little hectic and picky but it will pay off at the end. I passed the card you handed out (you know, the one with all of the bullets outlining your key points) to someone already since it was such a gift to me I wanted to pass the blessing to someone else. Again it was a pleasure and an inspiration. I will take everything I learned today with me everywhere I go as I sail out into these unknown waters of the Un-Pacific Real Estate Ocean. ”

— Houston, TX

“Many thanks for time well spent. Your seminar was well done and full of great advice. We all need to remind ourselves of how we can do a better job and generate more business — regardless of how long we've been in the business (17 years for me). I left with a renewed sense of purpose.”

— Holicong, PA

“I wanted to thank you again for bringing Dan into the office. I was beginning to feel truly hopeless and I found him to be an inspiration. I really needed the kick in the butt. Thanks again and thanks again to Dan for sharing his wisdom. ”

— West Lake Village, CA

“This already helped me to realized what I’ve been doing wrong in my business, so I am 100% positive this will help me to improve my business in the following days.”

— Scottsdale, AZ

“Thank you for putting on a very informative meeting regarding "How to Up Your Earnings in a Down Market." As I have attended numerous meetings during my 23 years sales career, your presentation, topic content, theories, strategies and delivery were right there with Todd Duncan, Brian Jennings, Tony Dungy, Zig Ziglar, Anthony Robbins and now the infamous Donald Trump! Fantastic job; my kudos to you. This truly demonstrates your commitment to CitiMortgage and being remarkable!”

— Carmel, IN

“Thanks for another heartfelt, moving presentation which stimulated me and hopefully most of the rest of the audience, to think and re-evaluate some approaches to get more business. Again, thanks for sharing and explaining, in detail, how to execute these approaches. It was a very good presentation!”

— New York, NY

“I just wanted to thank you for putting on such a wonderful sales seminar! Your lively presentation on selling was certainly one of the best (if not the best) sales seminar that I have attended since I started selling back in 1985! Your tips on how to increase sales and the "Do’s and Don’ts" of building and maintaining an "entourage" database were incredibly practical and helpful. I also appreciated some of your other advice on how to maintain the right attitude through "not forgiving your bad (sales) habits." Attending your seminar has made me feel a jolt of newfound enthusiasm for my loan business, which I needed right now!”

— San Francisco, CA

“That was probably the best seminar I have gone to since I have been in the Mortgage Industry (4 years +). It focused more on what we can do to improve (get more clients) rather than how a program can bring us more business (they don’t). I am really looking forward to your next seminar in the fall and becoming a "CITI" guy.”

— Apex, NC

“Once again, after hearing Mr. Dan Ervin speak for the second time, I am again thoroughly renewed. His 2 hour presentation on "How to UP your earnings in a DOWN market", was even more awe-inspiring the second time. I personally took 20% more notes than my first experience. His exhilarating enthusiasm and overwhelming inspiration are extremely enabling.”

— Santa Cruz, CA

“Your presentation created a lot of positive energy in the group (of Realtors and mortgage professionals). It supported team building by sharing what we can do to help set us all apart from everyone else out in the market. I have been attending meetings with Realtors for over a year now and I must say this is the first time I have seen such a welcoming response.”

— Roswell, GA

“I wanted to thank you again for your wonderful presentation. You were funny, intelligent, straightforward and credible. I have seen a lot of good speakers, but you were different. I forgot at times that I was hearing a presentation and felt more like I was having a conversation. But what I liked most was when you highlighted some of the things that both agents and LOs do that are just plain dumb. It was funny, yet not offensive, because it was true and helpful. I have given about 40 or 50 presentations, myself, and love to see good speakers like you.”

— Rochester, NY

“Thank you for sharing your time and experience with us. It was very much worth my time. I enjoyed your in-your-face presentation and know that I can improve my business immediately. I am looking forward to getting my software up and running. I am already setting up appointments with Realtors to share these new tools.”

— Orangevale, CA

“I can not express to you how delightful I found your presentation. You are a natural at what you do! It was inspirational, touching, educational and enjoyable. Thank you for reminding me that I am surrounded by such talented people in this industry.”

— Eagle, ID

“Dan, I just wanted to thank you for your presentation today. I thought it was very informative and very well executed. As soon as I left the event I met with two financial planners. Had it not been for your presentation, I would not have thought to do that. Being in the industry for almost 20 years, I always I believed that in order to succeed in this profession you should always keep an open mind to new approaches and ideas. Thanks again!”

— New York, NY

“Your speech on the sales basics was exactly what I needed. Also, very importantly, your sharing your personal story about your earlier career and how your family struggled with managing the company made me feel like you understood the problems and challenges that we as mortgage brokers and owners are enduring. Your speech was very motivational and I feel like your speech may be life-changing for me.”

— Sarasota, FL

“You did a great job of wrapping up the key basics of professional salesmanship in an entertaining and personal way that I think communicated the message very effectively to the Silicon Valley audience of Realtors and lenders. In fact, your real-estate industry first hand experience made it very pertinent to the group. Plus your personal anecdotes and delivery helped to bring the points home. And your "call to action" to gain commitment was masterful in its simplicity.”

— San Mateo, CA

“Thank you for such an inspiring seminar today! It was refreshing to hear someone speak who was interesting, funny, sweet and family-oriented. Several of us talked to one another afterwards and we all agreed that this was a good one. Keep up the good work.”

— Fairport, NY

“Dan Ervin is the greatest speaker I have heard on the real estate and mortgage industry.”

—Lake Forest, IL

“I just wanted to extend my thanks for a very interesting and informative Seminar at the Marriott in Stamford CT. I've been to many of these things and sometimes you can walk out of them and say, "that was a waste of time." However, I found myself intrigued not only at the content but Dan’s personal stories! I can say that Dan Ervin’s approach and delivery was one of the best that I've seen!”

— Yorktown Heights, NY

“I found your seminar on "How to up your Earnings in a Down Market" to be more than the usual motivational topic; it was also practical! Already I have made two appointments to take my "connectors" to breakfast, have started my Daily Victory (professional and personal) log and am sharing my successes with my entire Entourage! And, of course, I also bought the BOOM software and can't wait to use it on my first referral today - I'm sure to nab this client once they see the web page that BOOM created for them. Thank you so much!”

—Ann Arbor, MI

“Dan's presentation was thought provoking, engaging and enthusiastic. The concepts for my daily life, as well as those specific to the mortgage market encouraged me to see all that I can be doing. These are ideas that I can apply to both my business and family.”

— Newport Beach, CA

“Thank you for an informative and motivational presentation today. I believe it will assist in raising the level of service to and winning of clients along with building partnerships based on value-add with Realtors. I am in my first year as an LO and now with my second mortgage broker. It has been tough going, and now it is make or break time for me, so this could factor in to my ability to establish myself as a professional, as a preferred partner, and as a productive provider for my family of 6.”

— Raleigh, NC

“I have a type "A" personality and demand excellence. I was leery of wasting my time at another "FREE" conference. Normally free means lame! Daniel was a far better communicator than I expected and his product blew me away. The investment of my time will create a great financial return for my business. Thanks Dan for your value.”

— Vancouver, WA

“Dan is a great speaker and is VERY credible since he has lived the life of being in the "trenches". I was in total agreement with him and his questioning of his college professor .....who only had dealt in THEORY his entire professional life. I had the same thoughts with some of my professors. I would like to thank Dan Ervin for his presentation.”

— Redondo Beach, CA

“Dan Ervin is an awesome motivational speaker!  His down-to-earth style along with his exuberant personality is so refreshing.  His message is loud and clear!  I have taken some of his ideas and will definitely implement them into my daily routine.”

— Honolulu, HI

“Thank you for a most enjoyable and informative presentation; the content was excellent and your delivery was superb! In many ways I felt that you were singing to the choir, in that my business has been built on referral based systems. But even for someone like me, its important to be reminded of the fundamentals that I have been neglecting. I also appreciate the fresh approach to the topics that you covered, and the wonderful stories that you had to share.”

— Concord, CA

“Thank you for the excellent presentation regarding some of the fundamentals of sales and personal service. I especially enjoyed your use of personal anecdotes to give meaning to the concepts presented. In my 14 years of management I have been able to experience several sales leader presentations, including Brian Tracy, Dale Vermillion, and Dale Carnegie. Your presentation embellishes Carnegie’s concept that Rapport is built through two ways — Relationship building and through credibility. The techniques you taught strengthen long-lasting relationships and also build credibility in the consumers’ eyes.”

— North Olmsted, OH

“Enjoyed your presentation very much yesterday in Pittsford. I have been in the Mortgage business for almost 17 years and I think this is a great time to be in the business (especially in the Rochester area). You gave me many great ideas that I have already started implementing. I started looking at my Entourage numbers last night, will begin my "Daily Victories" today and will be purchasing the Mark Sanborn book in the next few days (also bought the BOOM! software). Thanks again. I will recommend you highly to other Mortgage Professionals who need to get a "refresher" course in how simple this business (or any sales job) can be if we just apply consistent behavior to what we do.”

— Rochester, NY

“Once again, I wanted to thank for your presentation. Today at the seminar, you helped me a tremendous amount. Your advice afterwards on building confidence, even at such an early stage in my career, worked wonders already and it's only about four hours after your presentation. We went out to visit some Realtors and already I feel better about it. I want to thank you so much for your advice and words of wisdom. You've already left your mark on my company.”

— Carnegie, PA

“Just wanted to let you know that within 10 minutes of stepping into my office I’ve already taken one of the ideas I heard and used it with a Realtor. The idea?...the one about using Boom for their listing presentation in order to set them apart as the Realtor of choice. This was with a Realtor I met with last Friday and showed them BOOM! and how working with me would be a "remarkable" experience for them.”
