What the banner is selling

Your File, not a new one

The Self-Employed Borrower's File, cover

The Self-Employed Borrower's File

Your one-page PDF from 21 August, already in your Featured. Nine things a credit assessor actually reads on a self-employed application: the direction of your income, the addbacks, the age of your ABN and GST registration, the gap between the business and you, credit limits, the ATO position, the deposit's trail, the structure itself, and continuity.

The one-shot DM

Send this to anyone who likes or comments on one of your posts, or anyone you've just connected with. Swap the highlighted bits for each person.

Your message

Hey [FIRST NAME], I'm about to head out the door to take my son to cricket, so I thought I'd send this quickly before I forget.

I saw you [liked / commented on] my post about [TOPIC] (or: thanks for connecting!), so I wanted to properly introduce myself.

I'm Rishi, and I run Mortgage Planners in Chadstone. We set up lending for self-employed people, contractors and families with companies and trusts, so your accountant keeps your tax down and you still stay borrowable.

I had a look at your profile and you reminded me of [CLIENT NAME], who I was just on the phone with.

[He/She] [SITUATION], and [RESULT].

It works because we read the file the way a bank's credit team will, before it goes anywhere near a lender. For the last seven and a half years, other brokers have sent me their complex files to structure before they submit them.

It's taken me 18 years and 1,000+ families to get this right.

Right now I'm offering a free 30-minute scenario chat, where I tell you exactly where you stand before you bid, sign or refinance.

As you can imagine, the "keep the number low at June 30" habit isn't a big fan of us haha. But we don't mind. The more families that stay borrowable, the better.

Anyway, I really have to go or he'll be late for training.

Would [TIME 1] or [TIME 2] tomorrow work to suss out where you stand?

If not, no biggie at all. Happy to just send you The Self-Employed Borrower's File instead. It's the 9 things a bank reads on a self-employed application, on one page.

Nice to meet you!

Cheers,
Rishi

What goes in each gap

  • [TOPIC]: the post they reacted to. For a new connection, use “thanks for connecting!”.
  • [CLIENT NAME] + [SITUATION] + [RESULT]: a real client who looks like this person. For example: the IT contractor six months into his ABN, told no four times, approved in seven business days. The franchise holder with four income sources, approved in four business days with $400,000 cash-out. The IT couple with five incomes and four entities, around $700,000 released for the land and the build. One file, one outcome, so never promise the same.
  • The times: two real slots tomorrow, or your “Book an appointment” link. Add your WhatsApp if they'd rather message.
  • The cricket line: true on weekends. On a weekday, swap in whatever is actually on, like school pick-up.
Before it goes live

Three quick checks

  • Compliance on the Featured tiles. Every banner carries your CR 433242 · ACL 561247 · FBAA M361704 line, like your current one. The Featured tiles don't, because the File they link to carries the full line. If your licensee wants it on the tiles too, tell us and we'll add it.
  • Pick one years number. LinkedIn says 18 years and your website's About still says 17. Update the website to 18. The counters on your home page (Happy Clients, Years of Experience) also show 0.
  • Give the File an image in Featured. Your File post sits in Featured with no picture, so it's easy to scroll past. The Featured tile fixes that.
