This is the script my company gave me
Hi, is this___? Hi___ my name is___with____. The reason I am calling is my company informed me that you will be turning 65 this year and I wanted to let you know what I do for "folks".(regional dialect) I help folks that are turning 65 understand how medicare works, what it does and doesn't do and what you need to do or maybe not need to do. I'll be in___ are on wed. Would this be a good time to drop by and explain things further?

A lot of people i talk to are on TRI-Care or they just aren't interested. Is this script good or should I try to change it up a little.

IMO, they are hearing scripts from tons of agents if they are turning 65. (especially those from large carriers who are reading their answers back to them) BE DIFFERENT!! BE CONVERSTIONAL!!

Mr./Mrs ______

This is ______ ______, I AM LOCAL INSURANCE AGENT. I will be VERY brief, I PROMISE. It is my understanding that you will be turning 65 very soon, is that correct? (conversational)

They say YES

You reply, I'm sure you have heard from many agents and carriers throughout the country that want to SELL you something because of your age, IS THAT CORRECT ( or right, depending on where you live)?

I am a LOCAL agent and a Medicare specialist. I would love to sit down with you and explain more about how Medicare works and talk about other options you have available to you. DOES SOUND LIKE SOMETHING YOU WOULD LIKE SOMEONE TO DO FOR YOU?

I have several appointment times open tomorrow, 9 am, 1 pm, and 3 pm(whatever). Which works best for you?

I've noticed that a brief questionnaire helps. Intro, some benefit to them, a few questions (like 5), close. This is best ime.

Sounds good with the shorten version.
