Mortgage brokers and loan officers · Reputation management
The reviews sit on a person's name, and the last one is old.
Reputation for a loan officer is a short list of recent reviews attached to an individual, on Google, Zillow and wherever your borrowers look. GullySales sets up the ask at the moment a file closes, handles replies within privacy limits, and keeps each originator's profiles current.
Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.

What reputation management means
Reputation management is watching what is said about your business across Google, social media and review sites, and responding to it before it changes a buyer's mind. GullySales monitors mentions, drafts responses to negative reviews and flags recurring complaints back to your team.

For mortgage brokers and loan officers
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“A review two years old reads as a career that stalled”
Borrowers notice dates. Four reviews from one good year and nothing since says more than the star rating does.
“You cannot reply the way a restaurant does”
A public answer confirming somebody was your borrower, or mentioning their file, creates a privacy problem. The reply has to be warm and say nothing.
“The closing table is the only moment that works”
Relief peaks when the papers are signed. An ask two weeks later reaches a family unpacking boxes who have stopped thinking about the loan.
What we do
What we deliver for mortgage brokers and loan officers.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
A review ask timed to closing
A short request made at signing and repeated once, aimed at the platform that matters for that borrower's referral source.
Result: Recent reviews keep arriving without anyone chasing.
Reply wording approved for privacy
Standing responses for praise, for a complaint about timing and for a review about a decline, written so they confirm nothing about a file.
Result: Every review gets answered without creating a new problem.
Each originator's profiles claimed and built
Google, Zillow and the industry profiles your borrowers actually open, set up per person with current licence details and a photograph.
Result: A search on the name lands somewhere you control.
Monitoring across the sites borrowers check
Regular checks of the review platforms and the local pages where lender complaints appear, with anything new flagged the same week.
Result: A problem is spotted the same week rather than the next quarter.
Written notes collected from agents
Short comments from agents who send you business, kept for recruiting the next tier of the bench rather than posted publicly.
Result: You have proof to show an agent who has never used you.
A count by originator
New reviews, replies sent and requests made for each loan officer, measured against the baseline recorded before work starts.
Result: The quiet originator is visible before a year has passed.
How the result is measured
- Average rating
- Response time to reviews
- Negative mentions resolved
Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.
What to do with each review
How to reply to a borrower's review, praise, delay, decline or a complaint about fees.
- Praise after closing
- Thank them in general terms and keep loan amounts, rates and addresses out of the reply. Ask whether they would add the loan type and the city, such as a first-time purchase or a refinance.
- Complaint about a decline
- Do not discuss the file in public. Reply that you cannot talk about a borrower's application, and invite them to call. Privately, explain the reason and the options, and note what you told them.
- Complaint about delays to closing
- Say that you are glad to review the timeline with them. Check the file log to see where the wait was, such as the appraisal, underwriting or the title. Do not blame the lender or the title company in public.
- Complaint about fees or changed terms
- Reply that you will go through the disclosures with them. Compliance rules on mortgage advertising and disclosure differ and change, so check with your own compliance contact before you quote any figure.
- Review naming a loan officer or processor
- Thank them without commenting on the person's work. Speak to that person privately. If the praise names a team member, ask them whether they are happy to be named.
- Review that looks fake or from a competitor
- Match the name against your pipeline and past clients. If nothing matches, report it through the platform's process and reply once, saying you cannot find the borrower.

How it works
From your first message to the first report.
No open-ended retainer. Every step gives you something in writing.
First
Your brief
You tell us what you need in a few short steps: your business, what you want, where enquiries come from and how they are handled.
After the brief
A conversation and a written scope
We read it, then talk with whoever handles your enquiries. If you want our help, the scope, the fee and the reporting come in writing, and nothing starts before you have read them.
Before work starts
Baseline recorded
The numbers this work is meant to move, such as enquiries, quotations, orders, visits or renewals, written down so every later report has an honest comparison.
After the baseline
The first fix goes live
The fix we agreed to start with is put in place and measured against the baseline, whether that is a reply, a follow-up, a page, a listing or the handover between marketing and sales.
As agreed
Report against the baseline
What moved, what did not, and what changes next, in plain words. How often you get it is set in writing before work starts.
At renewal
Renew on the numbers
The term ends and you decide whether to continue from the results. The length is agreed in writing before anything starts.
How the reputation management work runs
- 1
Understand current perception
We start by actually searching your business name and reviewing what a stranger would currently see.
- 2
Audit existing mentions
We catalogue reviews, mentions and search results, flagging anything negative or inaccurate.
- 3
Plan responses
A calm, factual response is prepared for anything that needs one, agreed with you before posting.
- 4
Implement monitoring
Ongoing checks are set up so new mentions are caught promptly rather than discovered by accident.
- 5
Measure and report
Sentiment and response times are reported, with your business name searched again to see what has moved.
Why us
Why owners pick GullySales over an agency.
Marketing and sales, as one job
Most agencies stop at the enquiry. We also fix what happens after it: the reply, the follow-up, the quote and the CRM.
The person on the first call does the work
No account managers in between. You are never handed to someone you have not met.
A baseline before anything starts
Your numbers are written down on day one, so every later report compares against something honest.
The fee in writing, split three ways
Our time, your media spend and production on separate lines. You always see what goes to us.
No guarantees we cannot keep
The term is agreed in writing and never a default twelve months. We never promise a ranking or a lead count, because nobody controls those.
Hours that fit your day, agreed up front
Which hours we overlap with yours is settled before any work starts, so you know when a reply is coming and when it is not.
