Final Expense Telesales Tips - The Final Episode

Final Expense Telesales Tip:

Keep the process as personal as possible.

After the sale, write a thank you note to your client on a postcard with a picture of you and your family on it. (This can be made and bought at Vista Print relatively cheap.)

Send out a "Welcome Packet" immediately. This should have information about you, the company, and the plan they signed up for. "Value Added" items are nice too, like a "Preplanning Guide" and a discount drug card.

10 days after the sale, call and check up on the client and make sure they've received their policy. Have them open up to the cover page of the contract and show them that it's a whole life policy with the death benefit they chose.

Take good notes during all sales and service calls. Find reasons to call your clients. Veterans Day is a day that nobody calls our veterans and thanks them, you should do that. Call after major surgeries, or big family outings.

Always remember, people don't recall what you say, they remember how you made them feel.

Powerful stuff right there, NSRH! That's the kind of thing I've been trying to get hold of: How to become their personal agent if they've never even seen me!

I'm all about keeping in touch with clients. But please explain a little more about Life Event calls and Checkup calls and how you know when to make those calls.

We can put things in a clients calendar when we know "life events" are happening. Grand daughter getting married, or the birth of a great grandchild.

Checkup calls we use to fill up the time of the staff when we have no scheduled calls left in the day. We just call to checkup on people and see if they need anything.
 
My thinking as well.

If it saves you on just one applications its worth it.

I think its a $99 setup fee and $0.39 per run?

Still pennies.

Unless Im missing something... its been a long time since I've looked at their prices, I just get one big bill at the end of the month.
