What this Country Needs is Good Home Service Again

I'm sure direct express cards over the past 10-20 yrs crushed the debit business . Those millions would have been debit customers . Debit is great for building a relationship and I have a few like that were I've picked up money if they were late and it's understandable with a 30-40% renewal it's feasible . But it's time consuming and I can write 3-5 times more policy's writing and going than collecting monthly

LBL Home Service does monthly bank draft.

And they pay 40% renewal ? But isn't the product very expensive? If you did check draft I'm assuming replacement very possible . Shonceman said once fe guys crawling the area . Wonder what % of his business check draft .

Ask Shonceman how he handles the debit card business.

When I ran a home service route I HATED it..

It was easy to get sales, but driving all over creation, begging poor people for money (no offense meant, just the reality of the situation) was a drain on me.. to be fair, I was an immature 24 year old.. so..

That's what most fe people do now . We deal with poverty and little loyalty . It's the nature of the business

begging poor people for money (no offense meant

Are you looking down your nose at us on the forum & making the assumption we must be poor cause we are in the FE agent section of the forum? LOL

No offense taken....you high society stuck up Med Supp snob.

Joking of course

Sounds as if you did it with a captive company.. It would be a world of difference as an independent.

I was, Monumental Life...

Life insurance, especially FE is tough for me. Like, I'm not a salesy guy (not meant as a slight.)

FE tends to require more creating urgency.. and it would take some adjustments on my part.

Dissolvement of the family unit must be a factor. Why protect your family when you only care about them on the outside for pc points but actually hate them?
