Dave Duford yes sir very true. Do you have any advice on door knocks? I’m sure you made a video on but I haven’t found it. I did some door knocks this week and really enjoyed it. I think I like it more than calling people. What are your thoughts on it?
Door knocking, calling on the phone... it ALL works. The key is finding what you enjoy doing and do more of that. The key to this business is consistency. And you're more likely to be consistent if your prospecting in an fun, less stressful way. So I'm game for door knocking. Here's the most recent video I did on door knocking - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-mirFX5TklVE.html
Hi Dave, I would like to know if it is true that the agent who lives any final expenses agency once he or she left the firm that agent would not be able to work for other agency for at least two years that is right?
No, that is not correct. You may have restrictions in your agency contract that says you cannot contact your clients for 2 years, but you should have free ability to work where you please. Some agencies will claim non-competition clauses prevents you from working in an area, but those legal restrictions normally don't hold up in court, as doing such would restrict your capability to earn a living in your profession.
David are you recruiting sales pros for your agency? I sell Pre-Need for a funeral home almost 2 years here in AZ. I was approached by Colonial Life & The Assurance Group (TAG) but I am not sure. I think I want to be focus in just 1 product.
I haven't heard anything substantively negative about them. They will release if you aren't happy, so that's a huge check mark in their favor. Beyond that, like any organization, you have to determine for yourself if the culture is right for you or not.
Hi Dave, I am an ex life insurance agent, but I want to get back at it again and this time do it properly. I made the mistake have having no income while trying to sell final expense and it did not work. However, I now have a full-time morning shift job (which I hate) and I want to sell final expense in the evenings. Is it possible to be in your agency part-time (until I make enough to go full-time) or does it require a full-time hours from the beginning? Thanks Dave!!
Hi Edgar - nice to meet you. Yes, I started this way and have several agents who have done the same thing. In fact, I have an agent who works a call center during the day, and sells final expense a few nights in the evening. Works like a charm =) - reach out to me at feagentmentor.com/contact/ and we can set up a time to speak.
