Exclusive Telemarketed Leads

[Guest]

We are setting up a new office and will be putting our new address on the website next week.
I have come to one conclusion it is very easy for people to say anything they want on forums like this sitting behind there computer. I am very professional in what I do and would never handle myself unprofessionally like I have seen here. I have never been told face to face things that you people have said because after meeting me everyone knows how professional I am.

Excuse me but you come here, you post behind a cloak, you seek to market us a service, you don't identify yourself, and you get pissed that we (Rick and I) call you out on it.

Rick has been in the insurance biz since the dinosaurs roamed. I'm much newer to it. But neither of us are as stupid or as ignorant as you seem to think we are.

I think you have one and only one chance to validate yourself and that is to fully identify yourself, your company, and what your credentials are such that we should put our trust in you.

You don't know the history here, but when Rick and I both agree that you are FOS, it's got to be right because we don't often agree on what day of the week it is!!

Do yourself a favor and tell us your name, your company, and why we should take your postings seriously. You can do this. It's not rocket science. You're not the first guy to come on here thinking you can BS your way to making a ton of money off of agents. And you may get past an *** like me, but take it to the bank that you are NOT going to get past Rick, Healthagent, Dave020, Melmunch, STI, Moon, Winter, Xrac, Mr. Bill, Paradigm, and two dozen others here who are nobody's fool.

They will have you for lunch. Do yourself a favor and cut the crap and be honest with us.

Do you consider it professional to make up statistics on a website?

"We have all heard the hype about making over $100,000 a year in the insurance business. We all want to, but statistically in the United States only 2% of Americans every reach that level"

The 10th percentile of AGI according to the IRS:

$108,904 - 2006
$103,912 - 2005
$99,112 - 2004

Also, for a copy writer, your grammar and structure are quite poor on your website. You might want to consider hiring someone qualified to write your content.

I don't know you. I'm not out to attack you personally. But, you opened yourself up to criticism by posting here.

Too many desperate people are scammed by posts like yours. If you're legitimate, take up the free 25 lead offer with a forum member. If they like your service, you will be FLOODED with hundreds of customers. Is that not worth 25 leads? How would that make you go broke, as you assert?

Insurance Man,

This sounds great on the surface, but yes, your first post is a bit suspicious. Why dont you convince your partners to ante up about 25 leads for an experienced producer here on the forum to test and report? It has actually been done on a few occasions and the posts of their results are very detailed. If the leads are as you described, you shouldnt have any problem getting plenty of new agents to sign up. You could even follow along with the results thread and stay in contact with the tester by phone.

You stand to earn a lot of money if the leads are as you have described, because we are ALL looking for good leads.

Hey thanks for the response and not just slamming me without knowing me. I would be in favor of that maybe 15 leads, but the problem is knowing who to give them to. Becuase I am new on here and I have seen some peoples postings that have been on for a while and all they do is critize and that would not be worth my money. Maybe I will post a new thread and ask peoples opinions on who would be best to give them to and follow through that way. What do you think?

Give 2 people 7 each - if they can't close 1 outta 7 - then they suck I imagine . . .

Well I am sorry for the levels that you are talking about. I did my research but I should have went to the IRS to find more. I appreciate that impute. And you are right I have opened myself up to everything on this forum. Also thanks for the feed back about the site, I need to invest some more money into it I see. I am taking into consideration everything you all are saying, the hard part is getting my character slammed, no one likes that, and that is what eats at me.
It will be worth looking at the right person to run these leads. I will invest in that because I know they are good and yes it will be worth while to have the positive response. All I know is the are good and agents need good leads. Who do you suggest would be well respected on this forum to have run them?

I would probably do 10 each for the two people. Who do you suggest is an ACTIVE agent selling health insurance that would be respected here on the forum

I'll take 10.

I market leads as well - so I can be really objective.

I am an active agent selling in Michigan and I'd be happy to test even 5 of them. I have been looking for a telemarketed lead source for some time now, and I'd offer an honest evaluation.

 

[Insurance Man]

Sorry can not respond yet to PM's I need 30 posts. I have a couple of questions for you. Do you sell over the phone or face to face? Are you the owner of your lead company?

Ok, do you sell face to face or over the phone? Do you sell mainly health insurance? Oh many policies to you write now per month? Sorry for so many questions, but I have to have the right people for this or I will be screwed. Thanks

I do phone / internet sales to primarily businesses.

I am the managing partner of the lead company. My partners fund the infrastructure, the dialer and the lists.

Give me a buzz.

I'll even offer them to my present clients if you have a wholesale rate for vendors.
