In home improvement financing, we track approvals, submissions, and credit scores—but what about take rate? Take rate = The percentage of customers who actually accept a loan offer. It’s not about how many approvals you get; it’s about getting those approvals across the finish line. If loan offers are sitting in your CRM untouched, your take rate is suffering. Start tracking your take rate—it’s the key to unlocking real sales success. Read the full article on take rate at https://lnkd.in/gen7wMNU
