In the past few years, title insurance agents have repeatedly heard the phrase, “The old way of doing business is gone.” Many have delved into new areas while others have just treaded water, trying to figure out their next move based on the market conditions.

So what is the new way of doing business in the title industry? Where should you be putting forth efforts and expanding your services?

Three innovative professionals from the title insurance industry are ready to share powerful insights into proven pathways to success. Steve Black, president of The Accurate Group of Texas, Dan Miller, CEO of RightNow Consulting, along with moderator Brian Benson, vice-president of sales, title and settlement services at CoreLogic, will deliver an insightful, interactive presentation on how to diversify your business to effectively compete in today’s market. They will tell you, both from a national and localized level, what new services you should be offering based on market trends. And in a consultative approach, they will offer a fresh perspective on innovative ways to diversify.

This Webinar will cover:

• How you can make that step to diversify and where to focus your efforts;
• A detailed look at the current distressed asset space and what you should be tapping into;
• Good practices to implement to survive in the current market;
• Where to apply your services and grow without taking on major infrastructure or capital developments;
• How you can take your current services to new markets;
• The overlooked opportunities right in your backyard;
• How to handle a large national account; and

• How data gathering, tracking and analysis can help you prepare for prospective changes to business models.

They will discuss branching into various lines of business in the distressed asset space, such as REO, short sales and foreclosures, while providing expert insight into taking your business to the next level. They will answer the question: “How can I compete and survive in today’s tough market?” They will also talk about how diversifying affects a company’s infrastructure as well as the agent’s relationship with its underwriter.

This Webinar is for agents that want to remain viable by implementing new services that will expand their reach and grow their business, as well as for those agents who need an update in the market to ensure they are not missing out on any opportunities.
