Stop Buying Tools If You're Not Serious About Using Them | Ep. 23
In this episode of The MLO Project, Frazier and Michael dive into one of the biggest blind spots in the mortgage industry—tech adoption.
They unpack why buying great tools isn’t enough if no one actually uses them. From top-down leadership buy-in to having internal champions (especially top producers), they share what it really takes to make tech stick in your company.
The hosts also drop practical advice on how to keep momentum, create peer accountability, and leverage online communities to fuel smarter usage.
Bonus: They spotlight the launch of The Green Zone Project—a playbook built for loan officers who want to build real systems and consistent success.
