A Silly Idea...or Is It Just Devious???

[CHUMPS FROM OXFORD]

Sure. I took the suggestion and put the apps on the Krogers Board yesterday.

Just went back today and picked up 26 apps.

Thanks to all of you!

How many were filled in?

 

[CHUMPS FROM OXFORD]

Oh. I just noticed. None of them.

 

[TXINSURANCE]

Even if they were filled out they would have no payment information, or checks attached.

It would have worked better if you found some place where prospects actually go, like Wal Mart.

 

[CHUMPS FROM OXFORD]

I tried WalMart. In 30 days, I wrote NO health apps. Just 18 life apps. So I don't do that any more.

 

[somarco]

Speaking of life apps . . . have you tried posting flyers with pull tabs in funeral homes. You could probably use this same approach for health insurance in the ER.

Dang, now I have done it. Gone & gave away all my marketing secrets.

 

[TXINSURANCE]

Yes but aren't they already dead?

OK I'll stop...

 

[CHUMPS FROM OXFORD]

Tried it already. Yes...many are dead, and it is difficult to get them to answer the medical questions in that state.

However, the art of "channeling" is very appropriate in these types of situations. Often, I speak with other members of the family as well. The History "Channel" seems to come up a lot.

Well sure, but the folks who come to pay their respects aren't. You could also put the flyers in the back of the family limo (but not the hearse).
