How Was Your January

[Bitnis]

I'm curious how everyone's month went as far as new business. Is the economy affecting business one way or the other or is it humming along as usual? If the economy hasn't had an impact on your business yet then insurance might be the place to be. Most people I know who are in business for themselves are down at LEAST 20%.

Are you in life or health?

I do individual/family health insurance in Florida.

January 2009 was a record month for me in terms of number of issued applications, and issued premium.

January was a good month for me. Over 100k in AV. I'll take that every month!

Better than expected. For my first month in business, I didn't really think I was going to get much of anything done, but I submitted...well, not much, but enough to keep me floating along.

My January was decent (35 apps approved) but only 1 so far for Feb.

Chumps:

The question was... "How was your January...?"

What, you aren't counting last Sunday...? How ungrateful.

Whoops, I just checked the calendar, and that was Feb 1.... I stand corrected (already).

Great! Remember this oppurtunity is only what you make of it.

This is fitting for this post, Tim Holt (HSA for America agent I trained) just sent me an email that he did $209,000.00 in AV in January, and $168K in December.

Sounds kind of slow if you ask me . . .

Had the best January for IFP in my lfe. Did over $50K. (Need to give props to Rob Liano for his help).

Of course, this is the first year in many that I haven't focused on seniors.
