Success As a Newbie in First Couple of Months

[AtlantaLife&Health]

First of all, I'm not "your dude". Second of all, I'm doing fine without your "pitch" to get people to increase their coverage. I just doubt that you're as effective as you say you are with orphan policies.

If you were, you wouldn't be so defensive. Supposedly no one's competing with your orphans, so get the stick out of your @ss.

If you're doing "fine without his pitch", then why are you asking him what he says to them? Sounds like you were interested in what he says to them until he told you that he's not going to share his entire routine with you. You should learn to be polite to folks and not be so nasty.

Great Job!

I wasn't being nasty. I DO like to hear what other people are doing since you never know what nugget of info you'll get. Maybe I took it wrong, but I felt that his response was rude and condescending. If it wasn't, I apologize for the bluntness. I just thought this was a forum for sharing and helping, not just saying "my dude you want my whole sales pitch...Get your own ...."

Sounds like thespur1 is insecure. Lot's of folks share information freely, including their presentation.

Others are too afraid someone might take what they do and make it better.

He once got in to a tight spot...just to see how it felt. He also lives vicariously...through himself.

He once taught a German Shepperd to bark in spanish. Stay thirsty my friends...

I would think that the fact that they are existing clients, and leveraging MOO's brand, which they already bought into, it makes sense that it is somewhat easy to get in front of them. Now my question is are you able to replace increase there policy without increasing premiums? That might involve some selling. Congrats on your forst few months though.

anthonyxm,
you understood the concept perfectly, i don't understand why briko couldn't get it, it's a simple concept.
it's very easy to get appointments with policy owners because they want to see us.

somarco,

call me insecure that's fine w/ me.
the fact of the matter is, i am still insecure and lacking confidence
i know it will not happen over night, but for now im happy and satisfied w/ my success.

i also apologize to briko if i was rude or condescending

 

[briko3]

No problem at all. I actually do get that it's easy to meet with orphan policy holders. I've done that many times myself. What's not as easy is getting them to buy MORE insurance so you can actually make some money. (I also understand that not everyone needs more) I was just asking if there was something you were saying to get more of them to increase the amount, or if it was something they wanted from the begininning. If you are insecure and lacking confidence (which is normal when first starting out) then I would think you'd be happy to share what you do...partly to help others, and partly so that some veterans here can give pointers if there's something that can be done better.

Thanks for the apology, and even thought you specifically didn't say you were offended by my comment...if you were, I apologize as well.
