Who Else Wants to Get Rich Slowly Selling Insurance?

Unfortunately, many producers enter the business with dollar signs in their eyes. It isn’t because you’re greedy or afraid of hard work. You’ve been told some tall tales by industry representatives hunting for fresh bait.

That’s ok. You’re an adult and you can face the truth. Knowing the truth you have to conduct yourself accordingly so you achieve the success you want.

Unless you properly prepare from the start you won’t get rich quick, and you aren’t likely to survive. Even when you do prepare you can expect things to start rather slowly and then build. It’s up to you to have the systems in place that keep your momentum going.

So how do you properly prepare? Yes, you have to have the proper licenses before you can even talk to anyone about insurance. But that’s the least of your worries.

You only get to sell insurance when you can secure appointments with people who will buy. You can only secure appointments with buyers when you know how to get their attention and make them curious. You can only grab their attention when you communicate the right things to them.

The right communications don’t talk about you, and they don’t talk about insurance products or financial instruments. The right communications talk about the things those buyers are already talking about. Plus the right communications talk about those things the way those buyers talk about them not the way the insurance industry talks about them.

But how do you know how to develop communications that do the job you need them to do, produce highly qualified prospects? You discover how to develop those communications by knowing your buyers so well they consider you one of them even if you’re not. That takes some upfront work on your part.

The secret to getting rich slowly is putting your focus on the right things at the right time. That means the first thing you should focus on is selecting and delving into a group of buyers until you know them like old friends. Then, and only then, will you be able to develop systems to produce highly qualified prospects on-demand. Discovering how to effectively market yourself ensures you consistently have people to sell to.
