SEO can also be done in house, but it is very time consuming. Some SEO companies charge 100,000 a month, but they are in the porn gambling and medication areas, where you could make that back in a week.
Submitting to search engines hasn't worked since 03.

Yes you can do it inhouse.
I am not saying only submitting can work. You have to have your site crawled every month. And you should have more incoming links. There are lots of combinations.
For linking the blogging comes in play. When you write blogs you must have your site links. When search engine indexes the blog it will index your links too. That will make your link popularity high and eventually you will get high ranking on search engine.

Life Insurance Leads
I am not a life agent, however I have experience working for a life agent in the past. I made all of his marketing calls and set all of his appointments for him. Most "nights" calling I would average 8 leads.. out of 50+ calls. People that actually wanted to sit down, and listen to what my agent had to say.
I would say the biggest thing in marketing yourself or agency is in the approach with the call. Not to sound sexist.. BUT I had great luck I believe in sounding like a sincere, non-confrontational female... who just wanted to help. Men I do believe can approach the calls in the same way.. however the wording has to be fine tuned to fit the audience.
Not to give away all of my secrets... my husband said I should write a book on "phone sales" .....
BUT always keep in mind. Life insurance is for the "living" ---- for those who were left BEHIND... by the deceased -- sounds simple enough...
BUT most people when you are calling them think of life insurance for THEMSELVES. Yes, they are taking the policies out on THEMSELVES. BUT they are not the ones using it when they are GONE.
My phone approaches were always from a "real perspective", if you can make your potential client THINK--- then you will most likely gain them as a client sometime in the future! Just something to ponder.

I have done it in the past for many agents. This was the problem that I ran into. Point blank they could never handle all of the appts. I had agents laugh at me when I told them how busy I would keep them. Always turned out to be true!
Including recruiting agents for the last corporation I worked for. On average I would have 5 agents appointed that I would recruit PER MONTH. My boss.. one of the owners could not get in touch with them in a timely manner. Some months I would have 8-10 agents waiting for him to call him that I had already interviewed and were ready to write our line of insurance.
I ended up leaving after recruiting for his company in 19 states bringing on over 110 agents that he could not really handle.
I guess to answer that question not right now. Only because I could not get paid enough to do it. Not to sound rude! : )
