Millionaire Insurance Producer

No doubt you were hired to sell insurance. But did your agency leadership make you FIRST prove that you can prospect to set appointments? I would suspect probably not. And, that's why so many insurance producers fail and don't make it -- or at least why they don't make enough money. They are good at relationship building and closing business, but they just can't set enough appointments. In this throwback episode of the Millionaire Insurance Producer podcast, host ⁠⁠⁠Charles Specht⁠⁠⁠ will talk about what you need to start saying in order to set more new business appointments with your prospects. After all, prospecting is a numbers-game but selling insurance is a relationship-game. Key Topics: The dual careers in insurance: prospecting versus selling insurance. Why poor prospecting skills often lead to failure and how to fix them. The importance of a defined process for setting appointments. Overcoming objections like gatekeepers and timing issues. Crafting simple, relatable messaging to connect with prospects. Balancing numbers in prospecting with relationships in selling insurance. Refining prospecting skills or outsourcing to avoid stagnation. Reach out to  ⁠⁠⁠Charles Specht⁠⁠⁠ Visit: ⁠⁠⁠Permission Network⁠⁠⁠ Produced by ⁠⁠⁠PodSquad.fm⁠

Sound to good to be true? Well, it's not. It's exactly what I teach and train my Producer clients to do. And, in this throwback podcast interview, host ⁠⁠⁠Charles Specht⁠⁠⁠ will tell you what the one thing is that you need to do FIRST in order to make all of this come true. Key Topics: The importance of choosing a micro-niche  How a focused niche helps create effective scripts, marketing, and branding Aligning your niche with your carriers' preferred markets for better results Examples of agents succeeding by specializing in unique industries Why focusing on fewer, high-value clients is more effective than spreading too thin How micro-niching increases trust and helps you secure more broker of record letters Avoiding the trap of dabbling by fully committing to a niche for greater success Reach out to  ⁠⁠⁠Charles Specht⁠⁠⁠ Visit: ⁠⁠⁠Permission Producer School⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠Permission Network⁠⁠⁠ Produced by ⁠⁠⁠PodSquad.fm⁠

Are you disgusted yet? Yes, disgusted! But, disgusted with your own personal sales results, more specifically. I mean, at the end of the day, nothing will get better until you become disgusted enough with the results you've been getting that you then implement change and do something different. It really is that simple. Building a $1,000,000 or more Book of Business through a signed Broker of Record Letters is really that simple. That hard, but also that simple. In today's episode, host ⁠Charles Specht⁠ will explain to you the "buckets" you should be most concerned about, and how to know what to change and by how much.
