(La Jolla, Calif. - May 22, 2007) - The mortgage industry's original and premier provider of sales and leadership training, Todd Duncan, today announced the formation of Todd Duncan Enterprises (www.toddduncan.com). Todd Duncan Enterprises was created to further enable Duncan, the only content manufacturer in the mortgage industry, to heavily influence the next phase of high performance training. The company's market-driven approach will allow it to create innovative products and services, and uniquely position them in the market.
According to Todd Duncan, National Best Selling Author of High Trust Selling, "The necessity for high performance sales, leadership, and professionalism has reached a point of great demand in the mortgage business. I am personally committed to reshaping consumer confidence and the value system of an industry that is in transition and that lacks trust." Duncan has devoted more than 20 years to researching high-performance, successful loan originators and managers, creating one of the most powerful programs ever for defining excellence in origination.
Continues Duncan, "The journey begins with the re-introduction of high trust ethics and standards that mortgage loan originators can embrace." Duncan's students include industry leaders such as Dave Savage, Daniel Harkavy, Jim McMahan, Sue Woodard, Linda Davidson and Steven Marshall, just to name a few of the thousands of highly successful originators who have graduated from Duncan's teachings and programs.
Duncan will serve as Chairman and CEO of Todd Duncan Enterprises and its subsidiaries. Glenn Llopis will serve as the interim President of Todd Duncan Enterprises. Llopis is a recognized innovator in shaping today's global market leaders across multiple high performance industries, most notably the consumer packaged goods arena. Llopis has spearheaded numerous market leading product innovations, national brand introductions, and corporate turnaround strategies.
"I am delighted to join Todd in his quest to revitalize brand dominance in an industry that has become commoditized and seeks strategic alignment," says Llopis. "Todd's brand equity portfolio that starts with content creation, and that is delivered through cutting-edge technology, allows for immediate and rapid growth to reshape an industry seeking leadership and trust."
Todd Duncan Enterprises' primary, full-scale emphasis will be on serving the mortgage industry. World-renowned content and universal success strategies permeate all of Todd Duncan Enterprises' lines of business, including The Duncan Group (www.theduncangroup.com); America's premiere leader for inspiring, teaching, and creating mortgage professionals to sell successfully and live significantly; Mortgage Mastery University (www.mortgagemasteryuniversity.com) a one-of-a-kind training tool that uses next generation technology to give mortgage professionals access to extensive curriculum); and the newly-formed TD Technologies (www.duncantechsolutions.com).
In recent years, the mortgage industry has embraced emerging communication technology such as real-time rate alerts, market updates, and presentation software with great excitement. Yet, many originators struggle to implement these career-enhancing technologies into their business. TD Technologies' easy-to-implement strategies will enable mortgage originators to fully integrate technology into their business. According to Chief Technology Officer Jeremiah Jacks, "The mortgage industry requires an integration of business strategy and technological innovations to support go-to-market strategies for its products and brands. TD Technologies' will serve as this value-added service platform that will propel Todd Duncan Enterprises into a full-scale technology company." |
