Marysa & Christina Maggio

Congratulations to Marysa and Christina Maggio of FFL Solidity for opening up their new office in MA this past week! Continue reading below to hear about how their journey with FFL led to this huge milestone.

Q: How did you both get started with FFL?

Marysa: I was working at a different IMO initially and started talking to an FFL agent on Linkedin. At that time I was skeptical of the opportunity due to my own bad experiences so I was undecided for around a year before I met Matt Walker and then made the switch. 

Q: Did your sister join you at the same time?

Christina: No I was very untrusting and thought it was too good to be true. But then I started seeing the success Marysa was having and I finally decided to get on board. Initially I didn’t really want to build an agency until I started to understand the opportunity available here at FFL.

Q: How did you guys structure your business to be able to be in a position to obtain an office in only six months?

Marysa: Christina handles all of the recruiting and onboarding for our new agents. That allows me to stay in the field and produce at a high level. This past month we issue paid $147,000 and currently we’re already at $100,000 issue paid after only two weeks, so this structure has been working really well for us.

Q: What kind of impact does having your own office have on your business?

Marysa: It’s nice to have a real home base and it’s easier to hold each other accountable because now we have more responsibilities and people depending on us. 

Christina: It just makes me really excited to grow our agency. I can’t wait to fill this office up and I look forward to being able to hold weekly BDMs, trainings, etc. 

Q: How do you want to finish in 2020?

Marysa: We’d like to have our agency issue paying $350,000 and have 50 unique writers by the end of the year.

Q: What advice would you give to those who’d also like to scale their business? 
Christina: My main piece of advice would be to remain diligent about re-investing in your business and be honest with yourself about whether you’re re-investing enough. If you do that consistently you’ll be able to multiply your investment over and over again which will grow your agency.
