How Many Policies Per Week?

I only sell P&C. In my post above 10-15 PERSONAL (P&C) policies are what I have pulled per month during my first year. I don't do any commercial.
 
Avaloninsurance I am a new agent and am curious to know if you are making any cold calls for P&C or just working referrals?
 
No I am not making cold calls. I am doing extensive email marketing to realtors and mortgage brokers and focusing a lot on my website and online free advertising. I get between 6-8 leads per week from my referral sources and my website/online marketing. I close about 80% of these. I also have done some postcard mail outs to homeowners in my area and have gotten a fairly good response from that as well. I tried cold calling (as I have found this to be very successful in the past when I worked for other agencies) but I found that because of the economy and scams in my area that people are very reluctant to do business with someone who solicits them over the phone.

Melissa, I looked at your website and must say it's very nice. There is however, a statement on there that is not true, and could get you in some trouble...

[FONT=Century Gothic, Futura, Sans-Serif]"As an independent agency we represent you and not the insurance company!!"[/FONT]​

Unless you are working on a fee basis with the client, if you check the laws of agency of the State of Florida (and most states), as an agent of the insurance company, you represent the insurance company.

I understand that you are "shopping the market" for potential clients, etc., but to say you "represent" them is not true.
 
Good point! I appreciate the feedback. Need to play with my wording a little to get my point accross without misleading!!
