664: From Beer Sales to $10M in Mortgages: The System That Changed Everything - Thom Brow

How do you go from zero to $10 million in funded mortgages in your first year—without a database, brand, or past clients? Thom Brow left a successful career in craft beer sales and started fresh as a mortgage broker. One year later, he’s built a $10M business from scratch— powered by focused prospecting, referral presentations, and his own custom-built AI tools. If you're early in your career or need to get traction fast, Thom’s approach will give you a clear roadmap (and a reality check). We’ll cover: Turning Cold into Closed – How 50 referral presentations led to 25 active partners and $10M in volume. Winning with Focus – Why Thom breaks his day into quarters—and always protects a dedicated prospecting block. Practicing Like a Pro – The AI “driving range” that helped him conquer cold calling. Scaling Smart – Why action beats perfection, and busy work always comes last. Building Better Tools – How Thom created his own GPTs to write emails, sharpen messaging, and train for live calls.
