Break the Box: Finding More Than One Path to Growth

On Growth Notes, Frazier says most people drastically underestimate how many paths are available to them, especially in business, where originators often default to a small menu of options like getting more agents, better rates, more leads, or changing companies. He argues there are many other approaches, such as building a niche, focusing on “lifestyle” local authority to generate attraction, creating a brand around a specific borrower type, strengthening relationships, and improving skills. The real challenge is getting trapped in familiar options and copying what peers are doing. Frazier suggests a thought experiment—if agents disappeared tomorrow, how would you build your business?—to force expanded thinking, experimentation, and learning from what doesn’t work, which he says will be increasingly important in the current market.
