bpenn9 I just said that because agents need to have a passion to help others. Being cynical about a long post that I wrote simply by saying 'I'm a tool' is very disrespectful and if you treat your prospects and/or clients like that I say you are in the wrong profession. Insurance agents already have a bad reputation in this industry and I want to try to change that so I am passionate about helping others and changing the perception that the general public has about insurance agents.
If you can point out an exact reason what I said wrong or have a wrong outtake on, I would be more than happy to correct myself and consider what you say, but simply insulting someone when that person is trying to help others is extremely rude.
If you spend $1,000 on a mailer campaign you will be lucky to make $1,000 in commissions. You will spin your wheels and not make any profit or you will lose money.
Your sales ability needs to be great and this is one of the worst industry to sell in since commissions are so small and the legal liability and regulations are so large. You can make more money selling real estate which you already tried and failed. This is not different on how to market and the results will be the same unless you learn how to be a great marketer and salesman.
Go back to real estate and make your fortune their instead. Unless you have a lot of free time and money and have a passion for helping stuck up seniors save $30 per month on their Medigap policy. Also you have a decent amount of competition as well that is competing against you.
If you can master the art of selling by building rapport, asking tons of questions, and being a fantastic listener then you need to ask yourself why you are selling your butt off and only making $300 per year on a sale that usually lasts for 2 to 3 years when you could sell a home worth $150,000 to $250,000 and make 3% to 6% commission all at once. If I could start over knowing what I know about the Medicare industry, I would have choose to sell real estate instead as the struggle is identical, but the commissions are 10 to 20x higher.
If you don't genuinely have a passion for helping others you will fail.
Who has time to not only write such long posts (although we did know a guy from Sacramento area who did this) and who wants to read them?
Perhaps limiting posts to 2-3 paragraphs would be a better idea. The information might be great but using the forum to write blog posts is absurd.
I've yet to read any of them due to the length.
