Lead Closing Ratio

I know it really is tough for anyone to accept someone being successful without your massive years of experience and same-ol same ol practices of doing business.

I absolutely do track my ROI, I track a number of aspects in my sales process to know where I should Improve....Do I need to share it with someone on a forum? No

Variable of time worked should be considered absolutely, for me it's a matter of working productively and efficiently using tools to help keep a client engaged without working 90 hours a week.

And it's One Year and 10 days in the business actually! Thanks for helping me celebrate a great year of success.
 
If I get through the first 20 seconds I'll close them 63% of the time...that's the key to my success

With no filters, if even just 1 out of 4 leads you get on the phone for 20 seconds is uninsureable, you would need to close the remaining 84% on a shared lead. I would suspect that either your tracking is off or your full of it.

I never said that I have NO filters at all just that what I filtered will stay with me...not exactly down for throwing out all of how I operate to just anybody.

However how many leads do you buy that EVERYONE is uninsurable? Now of course you'll get the uninsurable individual but plenty of leads are families. If you don't know how to get around that and find the sale than you should try to think outside the box a bit more. There is a sale to be made anywhere!
 
You guys crack me up (and you don't read)

Of course he can't be more successful than you, that would be impossible wouldn't it? You have to discredit him right? Why, so more sheeple think like you guys and get discouraged and don't succeed? It's crazy reading this verbage.*

Get over yourselves and admit you don't know everything, haven't tried or experienced everything, that's when you'll truly start to learn.

I rocked every lead source I've tried, in fact, in an agency I worked at, they wouldn't let me test lead sources any longer because I wrote sales off of all of them, but they were looking for the "magic" lead source that anyone could write business with.

Good luck with that strategy.

*Verbage: A deliberate misspelling and mispronunciation of verbiage that assimilates it to the word "garbage"

That's for the know-it-alls on the forum.

:goofy:

Congratulations on a great year Ryan and here's to a better 2010!

In other words, you don't know.

Thanks for playing. We have a nice parting gift for you.
 
I rocked every lead source I've tried,

Rob:

Just curious. Since you've rocked every lead source, why are you not sitting in your den selling a ton of insurance? You should be earning at least $200K a year by now.

I'm not knocking your training because your training does "rock", but why bother training others to do what you can do so well?

If this is the same Ryan Terry posting here:

Colorado Division of Insurance - Licensed Producer/Agency Information

One year experience in the insurance business and already producing more than all of us.

Scott, I have a funny feeling that Ryan's posts are coming from a recruiting posture... Caveat emptor baby, caveat emptor.

Congratulations on a great year Ryan and here's to a better 2010!

It's a damn shame I have to ask, but due to the proliferation of pimping bullsh*t on this forum, in the interest of full disclosure, have you received any compensation from Ryan?

Yes I'm paying everyone I can to recruit a couple of agents. This is quite comical. I know what I can produce and who I can help to achieve what success the wish to have by keeping an open mind. It would do some of you on here a bit of good to try the same.

My recruiting: I have other avenues and have no need to "Pimp" anything on a forum. I post what I know and what I've done. However it's understandable that only a small portion of agents, even senior agents cannot accept success above what they have reached themselves. That would be admitting failure.
 
No sir, but I'd love to, especially with those results (that are confirmed), Ryan, call me!!!!

;)

I started an agency Rick, because, if I sell 24/7 it will never equate to the same income as teaching many people to sell and earn an income together, reciprocal success, kind of like the ILIAA.

I should have done this a long time ago, I can train, and continue the training and support, so that they make money, and I make money, win win.

Of course he can't be more successful than you, that would be impossible wouldn't it?

Not impossible, but highly improbable. I'm not bragging, but I know what income I make and I'm willing to bet it is greater than almost any one year veteran.

I'm not saying he isn't successful, I said he's one year in the business and writing more than all of us.


Get over yourselves and admit you don't know everything, haven't tried or experienced everything, that's when you'll truly start to learn.

Trust me, I know I don't know everything. That's why I ask questions. Four years ago I didn't know a whole lot about Med Supps. At that point I had been in the insurance business about 17 years. Unfortunately I didn't have a forum like this to teach me anything. I read and asked questions of FMO's and just ran with it. Twelve years ago I didn't know a whole lot about the securities business. But I was willing to do what it took to pass the required tests and study investments like crazy and continue getting educated so I could be successful with that part of my business (incidentally, that's where the first several Med Supps came from).

Prior to that, I made a living selling mostly life insurance. Had to learn that as well. I also had to learn the individual and group health business many years ago. I have "mastered" (if you can call it that) a certain part of the business and then added another. I don't know what's next, but I'm sure if I'm around another 20 years, I'll need to add another market to what I do. But for now, I'm pretty busy AND content.

As for "rockin" lead sources, my only lead source at this point is referrals. I rock those pretty well. Virtually 100% close ratio and the ROI is pretty good as well.
