The Secrets To Having More Prospects Than You Can Possibly See... Starting Tomorrow!

 

Are you concerned about all of the recent problems, bad news and bad publicity; AIG Struggling, Large Banks Failing, the Stock Market Falling, Higher Gas Prices, Increased Mortgage Foreclosures and the proposed '$700 Billion Bailout?' The experts are predicting that many large and small businesses are going to fail, as banks are forced tighten up their lending criteria and deny loans. Will that lead to the high unemployment and the runaway inflation we experienced 40 years ago? Even if the proposed '$700 Billion Bailout' is passed, are we just postponing the inevitable? Who's eventually going to end up footing the bill for the bailout? What will that do to the income tax rates?

 

How are all of these problems affecting your ability to find and attract prospects, set appointments and close sales?

 

Consider, even prior to all of these recent financial problems, it's been getting harder and harder every year for most agents to set appointments and close sales, as more and more families and retirees have been struggling with their finances. Consumer debt has been skyrocketing out of control for the past 10 years. We've had a negative savings rate for the past three years. How many families will have no other choice but to curtail spending and cut their expenses, if they want to keep their home, their car, food on the table and keep from going bankrupt? How many retirees have already lost large sums of money in the stock market and with mortgage backed securities? Do they now have considerably less income to live on? What drastic choices will they have to make? It's a scary time financially, for almost everyone.

 

Unfortunately, for the vast majority of agents who have been just selling products and struggling to make a decent living, these are going to be extremely difficult times. Most of them are not going to make it. However, for those few agents who have been focused on truly helping people, this can be one of the most financially and personally rewarding times of their career. Who else can all of these people turn to for real help?

 

Every one of you has a golden opportunity to prosper in these tough economic times, if you stop pushing products and instead start focusing on helping people to solve their financial problems. People are begging for and want real help with their finances. They want to know how they can survive this terrible mess.

 

You can have more prospects than you can possibly see... starting tomorrow, if you'll take the time and spend a little money to learn how to truly help people with their finances!

 

Can you help families to 'find the money' to reduce and/or eliminate their debts, 'find the money' to start saving for their future and 'find the money' to purchase the insurances they need to protect their family?

 

Can you help retirees to stop losing their savings in the stock market, reduce their income taxes, and have a guaranteed income they can't outlive?

 

If you can help people to see that they can solve their financial problems and they can have a brighter future, even with all of the problems in our economy, how valuable are your services to them? Won't they want to see you?

 

It's time for every agent to step up and start making a real difference in people lives!

Sales Tips...
 

Work 'ON' Your Business, Instead Of 'IN' It!
 
Most Agents Are Only Earning A Fraction Of What They Could Be, Because They Are Spending Most Of Their Day Working IN Their Business Doing Low Pay-Off Activities!
 
Would you agree that Seeing Prospects and Making Sales is where an agent makes 80% of their money? Let's put it another way. If an agent doesn't make sales, how long could they stay in business? Can we agree then, that seeing prospects and making sales, is the most important part of your business?

Would you also agree that you aren't being paid to do paperwork, handle problems, answer the phone, type letters and the many other things that you do? I agree that many of the things you do, have to be done.
But, the question is, by who?

You Will Never Make A Six Figure Income, Doing $6 Per Hour Job.

How many hours do you actually spend seeing prospects and clients in your average work day? Are you spending most of your day doing the activities that contribute little or nothing to the achievement of your goals? In other words, are you doing the 80% activities that generate only 20% of your income, instead of doing the 20% activities that generate 80% of your income?

It's time to turn this situation around, and set up your agency so it allows you to do your highest-payoff activities for most of your day. You need to work ON your business, seeing prospects and clients and figuring out ways to grow your business. And then delegate ALL of your low-payoff activities to your staff.
Otherwise, you'll have to keep on working long hours to make only an average income.*
 
*If you don't have a staff, get one. You can hire a high school student part time at minimum wage. Early in my career I did it and I more than doubled my income in a very short time. Plus, I had a lot more time to spend with my family.

Success Tips…

 

Listen

"When I ask you to listen to me and you start giving me advice, you have not done what I asked.

When I ask you to listen to me and you begin to tell me why I shouldn't feel that way, you are trampling on my feelings.

When I ask you to listen to me and you feel you have to do something to solve my problem, you have failed me, strange as that may seem.

Listen! All I asked was that you listen, not to talk or do -- just hear me. Advice is cheap; twenty cents will get you both, Dear Abby and Billy Graham in the same newspaper.

And I can do for myself. I am not helpless. Maybe discouraged and falter, but not helpless.

When you do something for me that I can and need to do for myself, you contribute to my fear and inadequacy.

But when you accept as a simple fact, that I do feel what I feel, no matter how irrational, then I can quit trying to convince you and can get about the business of understanding what's behind this irrational feeling.

And when that's clear, the answers are obvious and I don't need advice. Irrational feelings make sense when we understand what's behind them.

Perhaps that's why prayer works, sometimes, for some people -- because God is mute, and He/She doesn't give advice, or try to fix things.

'They' just listen, and let you work it out for yourself. So please listen and just hear me. And if you want to talk, wait a minute for your turn --

I'll listen to you."

Prospecting Update…
 

How To Get 5 To 10 Referral Leads From Each Of Your Current Clients... TODAY!

Almost every agent I talk to is struggling just to get referrals, let alone set an appointment with them. However, using a client survey you will be amazed how simple getting referrals and setting appointments can be. And, best of all you'll get great results the very first time you use it! Here's how it works...

Starting with existing clients who bought from you, call them and ask for their assistance. Tell them that you'd like to get some feedback on how you are doing, so you can do a better job helping and servicing your clients. You'll need about five to ten minutes of their time. (You can do this on the phone or in person)

Ask the person to be completely honest with you and give you specific ideas on how you could change or improve the way you do business.

Thank your client for any constructive feedback, saying, "Bob, I appreciate your honest input and your suggestions." "That's what I needed to know."
"You've given me some things to think about."

"Now, would you tell me what you like about doing business with me? How was my initial approach?
Do you feel that I really listen to you? What's the biggest benefit you have received from our work together?"  The objective is to get them to talk and tell you how they feel. The more questions you ask about how they feel about the work you've done together, the better it will be for the next step.

"I'm so glad that you feel that way. Bob, would you agree that sooner or later just about everyone needs the help of a financial advisor?  When that time comes, the only way they're going to think of me is if they had a chance to meet me and see the type of work that I do. On that basis who do you know that…."
 

Advisor Testimonials & Success Stories…

 

"Lew, I recently purchased your Advanced Fact Finding Video...
I have been on two interviews so far and used the methods you described. It was surprising how the folks opened-up. Not only were their defenses totally down, but they actually stated that they liked the low-pressure approach and questioning process to find out what their needs/concerns were before they were asked to buy anything. In both cases the customer actually told me what they were going to buy... By the way, I am going to recommend that you contact Allstate's Financial Specialist Manger, so you can help them with their sales efforts.
They have spent a ton of money on similar programs, but in my humble opinion, what you offer is much better.
Feel free to drop my name.
Robert Dupuis, Allstate Agency Owner, TX

 

"Thanks for everything. I've written over $270,000 of life premiums in the past two months since attending the boot camp in December. Freedom Equity Group has asked me to do a teleconference to explain how I've accomplished this dramatic increase in my business.
I'll be recommending your (Found Money Management) system and your boot camp to everyone on the call."

"It has been quite busy and I am looking forward to a slow down. This week we have our final two seminars for the year. We have been very focused on the senior market via the seminar and our weekly radio program.
We wrote $2.7M (Annuity Premiums) for October and were #7 for the month in production with American Equity. I think last week I cleared the requirements for 'MDRT' Top of Table. Thank you for all your help and guidance."
