Personally, I would not pay anything for a group health lead. If I did buy one, I wouldn't pay more than for an individual health lead.
Business owners looking for group coverage either don't have a plan now and are thinking about starting one.
If they have a plan now, they are probably going to look at multiple proposals from multiple agents, including their current agent (if they can find him).
If they don't have a plan, by the time you show them numbers and tell them how much they will have to pay towards each employee's coverage just to meet the minimum participation standards they will no longer be a prospect.
If they have a plan and are serious, the odds of closing the sale in the next 90 days are 1 in 10. If you get lucky you can cut that in half.
If you are sharp enough to get an AOR letter you can improve your odds even more.
If you do close a 5 life group you will not see the first commission check for at least 60 days. That means you don't get paid for roughly 5 months after you first open the file.
If you are lucky, you will get paid a percentage of the premium. If you are not, you will be paid a capitated fee something on the order of $15 per employee or about $75 per month on that 5 life group.
So tell me. If you were an agent and knew this, how much would you pay for an "exclusive" group health lead?
