Thoughts on the FE telesales biz

[theinsuranceman]

How much have you sold outside of one company?

Zero, I've been with the same group since 1999. If a person like Todd has limited experience on FE telesales, then he doesn't have much experience does he.

I believe its much better to listen to the person who has the experience, versus the person with very little experience.

To be frank, you yourself have limited experience. All you know is the SL way, you've never experienced anything else.

How can you speak with authority on anything telesales?

Im not trying to be confrontational, but since you are calling out others, I find it appropriate to call a spade a spade.

Fair enough. It's the same way with any carrier, the agent has to know how to talk to the people. Since I know how to talk to the people it doesn't matter which carrier I represent as my sales conversation will be the same.
The difference is how easy or difficult the carrier makes the process for the agent. If a sale is happening all I do is a recording following a script for underwriting. When I finish I just click submit on the iPad and I'm finished.

The sale happens because of my conversstion.....has nothing to do with which carrier or carriers I'm representing.

It is higher for sure . . .

AIG would work - but with my IMO - we can't sell over the phone.

You can't sell over the phone or you don't have v-sign

I didn't ask if u have sold FE by tele-sales. I asked how much have u written via telesales?

I don't have an exact figure, but enough to where I can show someone how. I've done it where I have to mail the app to be signed, e-app with click to sign, voice signature, etc.

So just because I don't brag about how much I have done doesn't mean I haven't done it. Once again, you're just trying to start something the way I see it.

One other thing for you to think about. For years I backed you up saying that FE could be sold by phone. I didn't say that because it was "a feeling". I said it because I have the experience to know that it can be done because I did it.

Todd, don't you just hate people like Greg that are always trying to "stir up shit"? Ramiz is another one. Like 2 peas in a pod.

Nah, not really. Sometimes the pot needs a good stirring.

What kind of pot are you talkin' 'bout Todd?

The cooking kind....oh wait....that could be either.
