new to the game of final expense

Entering the industry and calling it the "insurance game" is a clear sign of someone doomed to failure.

This is a business of helping people while getting paid for our expertise. It's not a game.

I am looking to start selling Final Expense, the Company I am looking at said to go to the door and door knock the leads, do not call them first. I worked industrial staffing before in some of these bad neighborhoods, I know what their like, does anyone else just go door knocking , or do you call first. Some of these leads are expensive I don't want to burn through them on the phone.

Yep, I door knock. And there is an art to it. Community I live in just kicked out 3 reps. selling I don't know what (guessing utility sales). They were practicing some funky goings on at the door. I have a script I have used for years and still use. There is also a way in which you should stand once you have knocked. Presentation is a must at the stage the door is approached. Remember until you say something, all they have to go on is what they see...

It I can help out let me know and I'll pass on what has worked for me. I run a 3 or 4 to 1 ratio in knocks to entry. (Note: that's movin' down the street, without names. Cold knocked for cancer plans in my younger years and had to learn quick.)

Lol.

I would recommend showing higher premiums. You're average around $40 a month.

Man, if you had a 115% commission, cheaper lead costs and a $55/Mo average premium you'd have net over $14,000 more (cash money) off those 40 apps.

Food for thought.
