Hello forum!
First off, I wanted to thank everyone for the overwhelming amount of good content and great tips (not to mention friendly talk) all over these forums. It's been a great inspiration to me and has helped me finally get my career started.
I got hired by New York Life, and absolutely love it. I am finishing college in a few weeks and have been an intern for 2 months now and want to dive in full time.
I'm 23, but I really want to make my living off this job. Selling life/health/disability/LTC already has made a positive impression on my life and the good it can do for others, and I want to stay positive and continue to succeed.
One of the things that's really been bogging me down recently is my name flow. I've been trying to go door to door even, but having very little success. Still, every day I go out brochures in hand and try to talk to people. I've even been invited in to some peoples homes! So that part is encouraging.
Basically, I am on the lookout for any recommendations or ideas on how to find new clients that you've used. I know there are other threads in the forum that talk about this topic, but I always love some personal experience stories here and there.
Thanks again for reading and I'm looking forward to hearing back from everyone!
