Piss in the well - make it so anyone coming after you won't have a good experience if they try to drink from the well.
I'm assuming he meant he makes comments about how he is there to help and everyone else is there just to take the money and make the sale. Something to the effect of I have better plans than anyone else, I have better service, everyone else is crap, crap, crap (or is that piss, piss, piss).
How you do that without sounding like your a self-serving salesman is beyond me. But I have known people who do it well.

If you do it right, pissing that is, you will not have a problem with follow up agents or even those who contacted the person before you.
Every week I get calls & emails from prospects I have not (yet) been able to contact. They have been put through the wringer but have also taken time to read my approach email and even visited my website. In other words, they know a bit about me before we even talk.
I wrote a guy last PM that way. He emailed me, wanting to know if I could help. He was being bombarded by calls from pitch men pushing a product before they even knew what he wanted or needed.
That was a $325/monthly premium on a single male.
I am a firm believer in treating people with respect in a business like manner. I tell them what is going to happen as soon as they hit the submit button and how they will be man-handled by other agents.
Seems to be working fine for me.
And this . . .
I get 5:1 return on my lead purchases. If I can't make at least 3:1 I move on to another vendor.

Leads kind of stink.

Not all leads. If done the right way, your ROR will vary between 3-1 and 7-1. Add renewals and the numbers increase.

My advise would be to cancel your credit card that lowquotes has on file with you...Lowquotes is a fraud. They have gone by the following names:
Quotesmyway
BuzzQuotes
Go to the BBB website and type any of those names and you will see that they have a terrible rating...The ringleader is a guy named Greg Morgan. When it was Quotesmyway, they w/d over $900 with no reason. When I spoke with Greg he informed me that he will credit my CC immediately...THAT WAS BACK IN OCTOBER!!

American Classic Agency. I've been with them since the Fall of 2007 and its been a world of difference from my naa-experience. You can see my post on it in another thread.

I am surprised that you have not heard of you local chapter,
"Arab Camel Association" They breed racing camels, and I believe that they are based in Beruit.
