I've finally ironed out a script I'm comfortable with and not looking to change every 5 calls. The folks I'm getting a hold of are either A)hanging up on me in middle of pitch B)responding to my initial question, "Do you recall how much life insurance you have?" and taking control and ending conversation or C) Answering the question and allowing me to proceed a bit more.
Problem B is something I'll get better at with time, just going to take a lot of practice
Problem C I will eventually, but quicker would be better. I know there will be a mixed bag of responses, but how thoroughly do you pre-screen them and how do you transition into asking for the appointment? I've thought about asking for the appointment after my pitch, but I'm guessing I'd get an even lower response rate as I'd not be engaging the prospect.
At the very least, I am asking permission to call back in a few months to see if their situation has changed and noting any information I get such as current carrier, face amounts, and anything else.
And Yes! I have no money so time and trudging through it on the phone or door to door are my two options at this point. Thank you guys and gals.
