Millionaire Insurance Producer: Throwback: "Plan B" in the Broker of Record Letter Process
Asking for the signed Broker of Record Letter is hard enough, but what do you do if the prospect actually says no? Do you have a 'Plan B' or do you just rollover at that point and agree to blindly offer quotes? I would tell you that you need to stick to your guns, do not quote (yet), and utilize a 'Plan B' so the prospect will make a choice in your favor after they get a chance to test your Bugatti-like services. In this throwback episode of the Millionaire Insurance Producer podcast, host Charles Spechtteaches not only what the 'Plan B' ought to be but he'll give you the exact script to use when creating your own personalized 'Plan B.' MOREOVER..... stay tuned at the end to hear about the "Broker of Record Letter BOOTCAMP" Charles is putting on 3/24/23. You won't want to miss this one!

A professional knows what they're going to be doing next. Even though you might not always know what to expect, you should always have a next step. Plan A, Plan B, Plan C.” - Charles Specht “In Plan B, you're giving the insured a plan on what you're going to be doing going forward so that they can see the value they're getting out of it.” - Charles Specht “Plan A is first and foremost, that's what we're working on first. Plan B, which is what this podcast episode is about, is sticking to your guns and not just giving in. But having a plan of attack that is still pushing towards the Broker of Record letter. Frankly, when you do that, you're going to have really, really good results.” - Charles Specht Resources Mentioned: Reach out to Charles Specht Broker of Record Letter BOOTCAMP Permission Network Insurance Agency, Inc.

Millionaire Insurance Producer: Your Weak Efforts Are Hurting My Ears - (www.wincroniche.club)
Have you ever gone through a season of prospecting where you weren't actually prospecting? You were doing -- I don't, know, whatever -- but just not a lot of reaching out to prospects? Yes, I think we all have experienced that from time to time. Today I had a coaching call with a new producer who has been in the business for about 8 months ... and I had to light him up! He's being lazy, reactive, and not doing the work that Producers are supposed to do. We all go through seasons like that. If you're in that season right now then GET OUT OF THERE RIGHT NOW!!! Enough is enough. Your weak efforts are hurting my ears. In fact, my own weak efforts hurt ever more. We (you and me both!) can do better. So let's.
