Winning in the Mortgage Industry: Eliminate or Collaborate – Originate For Life Episode 1
Winning starts with awareness. In this episode, two of the top mortgage originators in the United States, Matt Weaver and Max Fisch, reveal how visualizing the competitor became one of the most powerful accelerators of their success. By recounting personal anecdotes and comparing the industry to sports, they highlight how studying your competitors’ habits, strengths, and weaknesses can sharpen your own performance and strategy. They also explore why collaboration can sometimes be more valuable than rivalry, and how aligned belief systems can turn former competitors into strategic partners. “Visualize the Competitor” challenges originators to see the field clearly, create rather than copy, and turn competition into fuel for creation, collaboration, and long-term domination. Finally, Matt and Max introduce the mission behind Originate For Life, their industry-advancing initiative designed to unite originators, elevate standards, and help the entire community win at a higher level. 00:00 Visualizing the Competition 00:41 Meet the Mortgage Masters 01:34 Sports and Business Parallels 02:19 Studying the Competition 05:26 Creating Value Differently 10:26 The Power of Collaboration 13:16 Healthy Competition and Innovation 14:11 Conclusion and Final Thoughts 🎙️ The Originate For Life Podcast | Available Now On All Streaming Platforms 📲 Follow Matt & Max on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mattandmaxpodcast/ https://www.instagram.com/mattweaverspeaks/ https://www.instagram.com/maxfisch_mortgages/ 🔑 Apply for F13 Membership | The Complete Blueprint to Becoming a #1 Originator. https://think13.com/ 🔑 Originate For Life | Break Free from the Broken Origination Cycle.
