haven't heard of anyone replacing rna on a regular basis until now. What do you replace these policies with?

when replacing certificates with policies how do you represent/mention the state guarantee fund as a benefit w/o actually selling it as a benefit or inducement...? Mentioning the fund as a benefit is a violation, isn't it...?
I do not regularly replace RNA. I replace them more than LH because I run into them more than LH. I just do not run into LH as much as you guys do. May be the income levels leads are generated from. I think LH sells the lower end of income. Most times I come out with more face and premium than they had before.
When I go in I am normally invited in. They have asked me to review their policies off of a referral from a family member or friend that is a client of mine. So I come in more as an advisor than a guy calling off of a lead. So the trust level is much higher.
I explain that they have a certificate that is much more like a group or association plan than policy issued by an admitted Life Insurance company. Sometimes we call the Fraternal and ask them the questions. I prefer to hang people with their own rope. None of this is much different than how people replace LH, Primerica or AARP.
A bigger part of it is I believe a policy is superior to a certificate. Part of this came from an old post by, I think, Newby RE Oxford being a policy vs a fraternal. Same as some agents believe an A- rated company is superior to a B++ rated company. Most of what I have learned about SIWL I got from this forum. My FE market is just a little different than the lead card fillers.
Having grown up, in the business, through the UL imploding days. Guarantees are a big deal to me. I normally compare guarantees.
We hear of agents replacing policies over $3-5 a month, that is not me. But I will replace over guarantees though.
