I've never been affectived negatively by that "advice" and I still call BS on it.
I would for you try that stuff with people I'm meeting with. I have used it though when replacing the high priced junk that's out there. I ask them if the person that sold it to them said to stop sending in reply cards. The ones that say that they were that I ask them if they know why they were told that that, they nod their head and say sheepishly, "we do now".
Scam artist are always afriad of somebody coming in behind them to expose their dealings.
I don't care who goes behind me because they can't put them in a better deal that what I did. I talked to a LH agent two weeks ago and told him that I had been working his area. He said, "I know, I've been in there behind you and I can't touch your work". He wanted to know if I would contract him under me so that he could offer people good service.
You can talk the talk all you want, but if you can't walk the walk you will have to keep recruiting newbies and hold on to them long enough to keep their money after they wash out.
Son, I've been walking the walk and talking the talk for 12 years now, FE only, (longer than you I believe). I've been fairly successful even though my premiums are higher. I don't force people to buy my product, I just show them the rates and let them pick what they like.
If grocery store A charges more for a loaf of bread than grocery store B charges, and the consumer buys from grocery store A...did grocery store rip-off that customer?
