SecurityNational Mortgage has been awarded as one of the 50 best mortgage companies to work for by Mortgage executive Magazine. This is the second straight year SecurityNational has been included on the list. SNMC will be featured in the September/October issue of the magazine.

The award recognizes Security National in part for its company culture which extends a positive work-life balance for employees and loan officers. SNMC Leadership strives to provide world-class services to its clients, but also top-tier support, compensation, and benefits to its employees.

Each year, Mortgage Executive Magazine compiles a list of the nation’s top mortgage companies. The award is based on a survey conducted by Mortgage Executive Magazine. Over 200 mortgage companies and banks participated and more than 10,000 loan officers were surveyed. The online surveys are limited to licensed Mortgage Loan Officers who are presently employed by the companies they are rating. The survey is limited to companies with at least 30 eligible loan officers. Winners are selected based on a combination of total MLO votes and average rating score.

Security National announced today that they were named as a 2016 Top Workplace by the Salt Lake Tribune. The Salt Lake Tribune partnered with Pennsylvania-based WorkplaceDynamics, an employee-research and consulting firm, to determine the region’s Top Workplaces rankings.

The Top Workplaces award recognizes the best organizations as voted by their employees. Beginning in March, The Tribune ran articles and advertisements encouraging employees in the region to nominate companies as Top Workplaces. WorkplaceDynamics invited those companies, as well as other organizations in the region, to participate in the program.

Anyone could nominate a company. The only requirement was that the organization must employ at least 35 people in Utah. The organization could be public, private, nonprofit or governmental.

WorkplaceDynamics invited 899 workplaces to participate and surveyed 97 of them. Only those organizations that agreed to participate were included in the surveys. The surveyed firms employ 29,546 people in Utah. Of those employees who received questionnaires, 20,624 responded, either on paper or online.

“Our motto here at Security National is Excellence.” Says CEO of Security National Scott Quist. “I like to think it’s not excellence because someone is looking over my shoulder, or someone else’s shoulder. I like to think it’s excellence because that’s what I do, that’s me, that’s what I get up to do.”

Excellence defines the company’s culture and business model. With over five decades of experience, Security National has purposefully created and nourished a corporate culture that helps consumers and inspires employees to emphasize innovation, quality, and success. Security National’s culture has been embraced by a growing team of employees across the nation.

As part of this commitment, Security National has pioneered many innovative practices to ensure that this culture translates into long-term business value, including a selection of tools and resources, training, award winning marketing services, competitive compensation, full benefits, gym reimbursement, and vacation policy so employees enjoy a healthy work-life balance. Employees also participate in activities and charities that allow the company and employees to give back to their communities.

“Security National’s success is driven by the amazing people that make up our business, including our employees, customers, and partners,” said Steve Johnson, President at Security National. “Our culture has defined our company and our performance, and has created an environment where our employees have success. It is a tremendous honor to be recognized as a Top Workplace in Utah, and I am pleased to share the award with everyone who makes Security National an exceptional company.”

Security National is currently hiring across many departments with many open positions. They are also looking for experienced personnel, loan officers, branch managers and more across the nation. Visit  http://itisbetterhere.com today for more information.

Congratulations to the SecurityNational Mortgage MARKETING TEAM for being chosen as a SAMY (Sales and Marketing Teams of the Year) award recipient.  Each year ambitious individuals and teams are chosen and given this prestegious honor.

Sam Urie, SAMY Award founder and a former sales/marketing road warrior, applauded the honorees for their often-unsung efforts for their companies, especially amid the digital revolution that has turned the old face-to-face sales.marketing model on its head.

“Despite all of our digital tools, the most successful marketers know that it is still all about relationships. It’s not simply closing a deal and moving on to the next one,” Urie said. “It’s listening to clients, responding to their needs, following up after the transaction and taking the feedback to heart. On the marketing side, it’s understanding who your potential clients are so well that you can identify who they are, and craft messages that will speak directly to their needs and desires.”

The event was emceed by Ninevah Dinha, editor and founder of the e-publication YOU Magazine. Dinha said in her days as a broadcast journalism, she viewed the sales department of the news outlets she worked for with distrust. After founding her magazine, though, she got a crash course in the tricky world of sales and marketing—and gained a new respect for the professions.

“When I worked in news, there was quite a dichotomy between the news side and the sales side,” she said. “When I launched my own business, it’s obviously an entrepreneurial thing. I had to learn the entrepreneurial side of things. I really have a tremendous amount of respect for what you do as sales people.”

“We are honored to have been chosen as a SAMY award winner,” said David Bollard, Marketing Creative Director at SecurityNational Mortgage Company. “Our marketing team focuses on providing the tools, resources and strategy that Security National mortgage loan officers need to be successful. We love what we do and it shows!”
