What Million Dollar Producers Do That You Don't!

Dear ~Contact.FirstName~,

In a recent article I read the author clearly explained what million dollar producers do that most producers aren't doing.

Top producers focus on a niche. Seventy percent of the financial advisors who earn at least $1 million on average focus on one particular type of target market or client niche. By contrast, only approximately 35 to 37 percent of the lower-income groups specialize in a client niche. This makes perfect sense. Financial advisors who devote themselves to serving one community become well known and highly regarded among the members of that community - who, in turn, tell their friends and associates about their financial advisors and how adept they are at addressing their particular issues.

Top producers emphasize client communication. The top-earning group of financial advisors (earning over $1 million) go to great lengths to reach out to their clients. Consider that during the previous 12 months before our study, these financial advisors contacted each of their top 20 clients an average of 28 times. In stark contrast, the next most successful group - those earning $500,000 to $999,999 - contacted each client an average of just 13.2 times. The least successful financial advisors were even less likely to communicate with clients. The fact is, today’s clients greatly value regular outreach from their financial advisors - and will reward those who excel in this area.

Top producers ask for introductions - and get them! I don’t need to tell you how important introductions from existing clients are to a practice’s growth. But while a full 90 percent of the top earners regularly ask their clients for introductions to ideal prospects, fewer than 60 percent of the less successful financial advisors surveyed follow suit. It should come as no surprise that these top earners received nearly six referrals from each of their top clients during the past year, while lower-earning financial advisors received just two referrals on average. Here again, we see the value of frequent client communication: The more times you reach out to clients, the more opportunities you have to ask for introductions.

Based on the above and our 30+ years of experience coaching financial advisors, we highly recommend you take these three key action steps:

1. Focus on one or two types of clients whom you can serve extremely well. Specializing in a niche will make you better at solving your clients’ problems and makes it easier for you to attract your ideal new business.

2. Reach out to clients more often. Frequent contact about what matters most to your clients will build lasting loyalty and, along with it, referrals and additional assets to manage. One of the best ways to do this is to send them a monthly newsletter.

3. Be systematic about asking for introductions to qualified prospects. If you want more clients, you’ve got to ask for them. Make such requests a part of each interaction with your top clients. 

Yours In Success,

Will You Make it Past the Critical 5th Year
Most people who enter the life insurance business are being told that it takes a minimum of five years to build a base of clients that will sustain some level of business success. The fact that over 90% of the people who enter the business don't make it to the five-year mark is testimony to the importance of surviving those initial years. According to a Limra International study, the survival rate for producers with five or more years in the business is 87%. This would suggest that finding a way to survive to the fifth year is critical to making the life insurance business a career.

"Lew is a “Father” in the business. He has probably forgotten more about marketing and selling insurance and related accounts than most of us think we know. As a 30+ year veteran the Insurance Pro Shop is a great place to learn or re-learn the techniques needed to help our clients keep more of their hard earned money.

15 ‘LOW & NO COST’ Ways To Find
 Life Insurance and Annuity Prospects

One of the main reasons agents and advisors are continually struggling to make enough money selling life insurance and annuities is they are taking what they think is the easy way to find prospects. They are spending a lot of their money, buying leads or taking a cut in commissions to get leads. Consequently, they end up wasting most of their TIME and MONEY trying to set appointments with a lot of low-end prospects. (People who are shoppers, have health problems, or are just curious!) They are missing the actual easiest and most cost effective ways to be in front of their 'IDEAL' prospects every day.

Here is a question we get every week from agents and advisors who finally realize there has to be a better way...

QUESTION: I could use some help in other marketing areas. I use the phone a lot. I'm on a very limited budget right now and am very frustrated. I love my work, but I'm not doing what I need to do, to be successful. Can you help me?

ANSWER: There are a lot of 'NO COST' or very low cost things you can do to help you find more prospects. You can:

1. Call all your existing clients and ask for referrals...

2. Call all your existing clients and offer them client workshop. Have them bring a friend...

3. Call all the people in your neighborhood and use the survey approach...

4. Use some of the articles from our newsletters (rewrite them a little) to get yourself published in your local newspaper, associations etc. ... Make sure you have a byline with all your contact information.

5. Set up a joint venture with a P&C agency, attorney, accountant, doctor, chiropractor, dentist, optician, beautician, auto dealers, etc...

6. Call all the prospects you didn't sell, and do the survey...

7. Put up a flyer offering a free report, or workshop - in grocery stores, car washes, and oil change places. Or, put it on cars in doctor’s parking lots, etc.…

8. Put a free report in a nice, clear front binder, with all your contact information, into waiting rooms...

9. Make a list of everyone you do business with... Ask for their help... Ask them hand out a flyer to every one of their clients... offering a free report or workshop...

10. Offer a information workshop for churches, women's groups, and other associations... Starting with your local Church or Synagogue...

11. Make a list of every one you, your parents, friends, and relatives know, and then offer them a free workshop or free report...

12. Offer a free educational workshop to your local library or senior center…

13. Offer an adult education class at a high school or college... (They might even pay you)

14. Offer to be a guest on a local radio, or TV Show... offer a free workshop or free report...

15. Set up your company page on Facebook... offer a free workshop or free report...

These are just a few ideas... What else can you think of? Be creative...

Stop wasting your time and money chasing low-end prospects!

All fifteen of these (and many more) 'NO COST' or very low cost ways to find high quality prospects are explained in each of our specialized life insurance and annuity sales systems... with all the tools, training, and personal coaching you will need to make them work.

The Five Easiest Sales!

In previous newsletters we’ve discussed how and why referrals, the people you already know, your existing clients, plus your friends and family are 4 of the Easiest Sales. Many of you have asked is there any others.

First, please remember and appreciate that constantly advertising for and looking for new clients is very costly and can be prohibitive to most agents.

Also, consider the time required to constantly prospect and/or cold call for new clients is always prohibitive for Sales Professionals.

So, here is the 5th Easiest Sale - Other Salespeople!

Lets face it... we salespeople LOVE to be sold. However, don't call me if you're an amateur because I'll eat you for lunch and probably ruin your day. But, if you're a Pro, I'll buy almost anything. We appreciate a creative opening that's better than the other 95%. We love it when they qualify us in a professional manner to determine our needs. We're thankful when they tailor their presentation to our needs, wants, and desires. We're pleased when they hang tough and don't run away after 1 or 2 objections.

And yes, we will absolutely go nuts if they try to close us with anything other than; “So what do ya think?”

Yours In Success,
Jeremy Nason
