Put Your Voicemail to Work - LEVELUP in 5
This week on LEVELUP in 5 with Gary Mauris, Gary is joined once again by powerhouse producer Renée Huse for a conversation about one of the most overlooked growth tools in business: everyday communication.
Most brokers chase leads while ignoring the assets already sitting in their pocket—voicemail, email signatures, community networks, and daily touchpoints.
The message? Every interaction is marketing.
🎯 What You’ll Learn in This Video
Put Your Voicemail to Work: Your voicemail isn’t just a missed-call box—it’s a business asset. Gary explains that your message should be clear, confident, professional, and remind callers what you do. Every person who hears it should know who you are, how you help, and why now may be a great time to reach out.
Stay Top of Mind: Many people don’t work with you for one simple reason: they forgot you. Out of sight becomes out of mind. A strong voicemail, clear messaging, and regular reminders help ensure that when mortgage needs arise, your name is the first one they remember.
If You Want More Business, Communicate More: Gary’s blunt advice: want to fund more mortgages this year? Communicate with more people. That’s it. More conversations. More touchpoints. More consistency. In today’s crowded world, frequency matters more than ever.
Show Up Professionally in Every Room: Renée shares a brilliant real-world example: while supporting her daughter’s new volleyball team, she organized lunch for the players using her professional email, branded signature, and polished communication style. She wasn’t selling—she was serving. That simple act created visibility with an entirely new network.
Service Creates Opportunity: After the tournament, the owner of a major law firm reached out and offered to share Renée’s contact information internally for future mortgage referrals. Why? She showed up professionally, authentically, and helpfully. No pitch required.
You’re Sitting on Hidden Networks: Sports teams. Parent groups. Community circles. Social clubs. Existing contacts. Renée’s reminder is powerful: most brokers already have dozens of untapped referral opportunities around them—they just haven’t learned to show up intentionally.
Gary Mauris, Co-Founder & CEO of Dominion Lending Centres, closes with a powerful reminder: you don’t always need more leads—you often need to better leverage the people and platforms already around you.
