You'll run into that more often than not....have you tried knocking on their door? I'm convinced somewhere in the bible it says "thou can lie to a salesman over the phone"....my take on it is if they are going to lie to me they have to look me in the eye. I think youll do better by door knocking.
2 Months...only One Sale.

I only want to prospect to people who already have a Med Supp. They are much easier to interest in purchasing a policy.
It sounds like you need to hone your approach on the phone. You are letting a lot of opportunities pass buy not having a phone presentation that is designed to give them an opportunity to participate.
If you give them an opening to say, "not interested" before you get your message across then you are going to have a lot of difficulty engaging them in conversation. Nothing is sold during a "phone call", not even an appointment.

Maybe you should think about another line of work.
These are the ones you are looking for - they have the plan, now save them money, how can they so no to saving money?
one sale in two months? have you left the house? you should be able to make a couple sales a month from just friendly conversation.
I sold a 61 yr old New York Life agent a life policy this week, because I had a better price by almost $40 a month, met him in line getting coffee - just talk to live people
Thats a good point....just talking to people you will have a couple of sales fall in your lap in a month!
Are we certain this person is actually selling med supps? It was peopleperson earlier who pointed out that this is not enough information. If they are selling med supps, where in this thread did y'all get that, because I'm just not seeing that.
Earlier on, the OP said:
Maybe this is med supps, but it could just as easily be comprehenive financial planning, LTCi, term life, auto, or a bunch of other things.
Seriously, squid, can you tell a little more about what you're calling for, who you are calling, when you are calling, how many calls you make, and what your overall approach is?

Read the first post he said "What is the most effective ways to market supplements?"
that's where we got the clue, good thing you are in insurance and not investigations or proof reading
I guess he could be selling vitamins? But thought since this is an insurance fourm is was med supps. but really does not matter what he is selling, the point is "See the Prople, See the People, See the People" (quote by Mark)

Good thing you're in the jackass business ergammill, because for some reason I didn't see that part of the first post.
Maybe you should sell condescending advice.
