Passing CeMAP is only the first hurdle. It doesn't make you a successful mortgage broker. It just gets you into the game. Here's the harsh reality that most new brokers face:
The Waiting Game
Most new brokers face months of waiting, competing for scarce roles, or struggling to find a network willing to train them properly.
The CAS Challenge
True independence requires CAS (Competent Adviser Status), which usually takes 3 to 9 months to achieve with proper guidance.
The Death Beach
This stage is what I call the "Death Beach." Like turtles hatching, many don't survive the messy middle between exams and competence.
From coaching hundreds of brokers and observing industry patterns, here’s what I’ve consistently seen:
Of new brokers who don't have proper guidance in their first year
Time to achieve CAS without structured support
What most brokers earn during the "Death Beach" period
Typical time spent searching for the right opportunity
These aren’t official statistics, but they do reflect the reality I’ve seen repeated over and over again. The point isn’t to scare you, it’s to show you what most people face when they start this career without a plan.
The flip side? With the right structure and guidance, you can dramatically shorten this timeline and avoid the pitfalls that hold most brokers back.
Generate consistent inbound leads without relying on introducers.
Sell more mortgages and protection with confidence without feeling “salesy.”
Retain clients long-term with processes that create repeat business.
Scale with clear roles, automation, and a business that doesn’t rely solely on you.
I am a business coach for established mortgage brokers. I spend my days helping brokers scale their businesses, grow their income, and build long-term stability.
But here's the thing...
Every single week, I get messages from new advisers asking the same questions:
Until now, I didn't have a resource I could point them to. That's why I built The New Broker Success Playbook.
This playbook takes you step by step through the five critical stages of building your mortgage career:
Module 1: Breaking Into the Industry
Understand your options, networks, and how to position yourself early in the market.
Module 2: Securing CAS
Pass through Competent Adviser Status smoothly with structured systems and zero guesswork.
Module 3: Essential Sales and Lead Generation
Learn the sales and client acquisition skills CeMAP doesn't teach you.
Module 4: Mastering the Mortgage Process
Deliver advice with confidence, structure calls properly, and build unshakeable client trust.
Module 5: Building a Sustainable Career
Deliver advice with confidence, structure calls properly, and build unshakeable client trust.
This isn't just another information dump. It's a full learning system designed to move the needle forward:
Step-by-step video content with exercises to put into practice immediately. Each lesson builds on the previous one.
PDFs, cheat sheets and summaries with step-by-step guides you can use every day in your practice.

You’ll get instant access to five modules. Each lesson includes a short video, closed captions, a downloadable audio version, a PDF summary or checklist, and a clear action step so you can put it into practice straight away.
I designed this for brand-new mortgage advisers in their first year after passing CeMAP. If you’re about to sit CeMAP and want to understand what comes next, or if you’re still early in your career and want to get the foundations right, you’ll also find it useful.
It is all online and completely self-paced. The moment you sign up, you get access to all modules right away.
I have kept the lessons short on purpose, around 90 seconds to 5 minutes each. The idea is “watch, download, do.” Most brokers can work through a module in an evening or over a weekend.
I do not promise overnight wins, but I do promise structure and direction. By following the Playbook, you will know how to move towards CAS, pick the right first role, start building your own lead system, and create a clean, professional client process. Your results will come from doing the action steps.
No, this is a self-study programme. You will not get a community or ongoing support included. If you do want personal help, you can book a one-to-one Power Hour with me separately, though these are very limited.
Yes. Once you have bought it, it is yours. If I update the Playbook or add new resources in the future, you will get them automatically without paying extra.
I offer a 14-day, no-questions-asked refund. If you decide it is not for you, just email me within 14 days of purchase using the same email address you signed up with. Send it to [email protected] with your name and “Refund” in the subject line, and I will process it.
You can watch the videos with captions, download the audios to listen on the go, and use the PDFs for each lesson’s notes and checklists.
Yes, I have included exclusive interviews with industry professionals, checklists, and practical templates. Over time, I will also add and swap out resources to keep it fresh.
Yes. The Playbook will show you the exact steps you will need to earn CAS and avoid common mistakes that trip up new advisers.
Everything is structured, sequenced, and designed for new brokers. There is no fluff or wasted time. Every lesson ends with an action step so you know exactly what to do next.
No. This is not about another piece of paper. It is about skills, results, and building confidence as a broker.
Many firms treat this as training. You will get a receipt you can use for your records, just check your company’s policy first.
Nothing complicated. Any modern browser and an internet connection will do. You can view the PDFs on desktop or mobile, and download the audio to play on your phone or in your podcast app.
Some people set up their password but then find they can’t log back in (it even happened to me!).
