Survey Says! The Biggest Threats to Housing: Compliance Burdens, Access to Credit
3% down products a start, but industry still needs work
by Brena Swanson

The industry is making progress when it comes to access to credit and compliance, but the same headwinds that burdened the industry over the past year aren't easing anytime soon, at least that's what people inside the industry believe.

Taking advantage of all the people in attendance at the 2016 Mortgage Bankers Association Annual Convention and Expo in Boston during October, Genworth Mortgage Insurance, an operating segment of Genworth Financial, surveyed industry executives, gathering opinions from more than 200 mortgage professionals to see the state of the industry.

The results fall in line with  other sentiments at the convention that the mortgage industry has a better handle on regulation and is ready to start innovating. Click   HERE  to learn more about the results of the survey.

Want Loyal Customers? Start Talking About Their Emotions!
by Bruce Temkin, CCXP
 
Did you know that customers who feel adoring after an experience are more than 11 times as likely to buy more from a company than customers who feel angry? And customers who feel appreciative are more than 5 times as likely to trust a company than those who feel agitated?
 
That's because how customers feel about an interaction has a significant impact on their loyalty to a company. So let's talk about emotions.
 
Despite the importance of customer emotions, they are all too often  neglected (or outright ignored) inside of companies. As a result of this negligence, consumers give their providers very low emotion scores in our  Temkin Experience Ratings.
 
It's time to  start talking about emotions. To help spur this dialogue, we introduced a new vocabulary that we call the  Five A's of an Emotional Response.
 
 
Every time a customer interacts with you, they feel one of these A's.
 
If you're still wondering why you might want to talk about the Five A's, click   HERE for some data that will hopefully entice you to increase your emotion vocabulary.
