A national mortgage lender with offices across the United States was grappling with internal communication challenges that were negatively impacting team morale, engagement, and productivity. These issues were also affecting customer-facing communication, leading to missed performance goals and lost customers. Despite a favorable market environment with record-low mortgage rates and a booming real estate market, the lender was losing customers due to poor communication. The lender recognized the need to improve communication but faced two distinct challenges. Firstly, they needed to create new communication frameworks and higher quality standards and quickly onboard and coach team members for success. Secondly, they needed to ensure that the changes unified their salespeople and created a more cohesive, effective community of teams without squashing the competitive nature of selling.

The lender decided to experiment with a Grammarly Business pilot, a proof of value (POV) venture that started with just 20 team members. The tool's analytics dashboard provided weekly insights that leaders used to coach mortgage agents around tone and clarity. The pilot group, as beta users for new features like snippets, multiple style guides, and brand tones, achieved productivity and consistency wins. Leaders also noticed organic improvements in style, tone, quality, and clarity. Seeing the immediate potential for transforming their culture and resetting positive communication patterns, the lender rolled out Grammarly Business across their entire enterprise.
