How to Recruit Dozens of Life Insurance Agents

Posted on February 12, 2013 by admin

Life insurance agent recruiting is an important task to consider when growing your life insurance agency. Most agents turn to email marketing, Craigslist, Backpage or run classifieds in various newspapers in order to attract good talent. However there is a new way to recruit and Voiceleads.us is leading the way when it comes to “industrial-level” insurance agent recruiting.

During the last year, Voicelead.us has slowly implemented a new insurance agent recruiting program that delivers actual voicemail messages from life agents asking more information regarding your life insurance agency / producer program.

When your life agent recruiting campaign begins, Voiceleads.us will call a specific business to business life insurance agent list, that we provide, and the prospects are pitched on a very specific message about your agency that we create together. Those who are interested are told to leave their name and number after the beep and they will be contacted within 24 hours. Those who do are considered leads and are sent by email within five minutes after the lead is generated. Every recruiting lead allows the buyer to listen to the audio message left by the prospect.

Agencies can easily recruit dozens of agents a month and grow their downline like never before. Also we are not aware of any other company currently offering this type of telemarketing service that can deliver at least a dozen or more leads a day, from licensed agents who want you to call back regarding your sales program!

Public information on the program will remain minimal and those interested can receive additional information by calling 815-272-2245, ext. 1 for sales. Mention this article and receive a 20% discount on your first purchase.

Life Insurance Agent Recruiting Leads

Posted on November 6, 2012 by admin

Voiceleads.us is pleased to announce the availability of life insurance agent recruiting leads now offered by the company for those agencies looking to recruit more agents.

The way it works is you purchase an agent list from any state department of insurance, we call the list and advertise your custom message, and agents who want a phone call or more information in return leave a voice message asking you to call back.

The program is proving to be very successful. On a recent campaign a client advertised their IUL sales system and encouraged agents to learn more about it. The client ordered 20 leads and he received all 20 within just two days. Each lead was a message left by a life insurance agent asking for a return phone call with the information.

To learn more about the new life insurance agent recruiting system please call 815-272-2245, ext. 1 and speak with an available sales associate. Pricing is determined by the number of leads purchased and the frequency of the campaigns.

VoiceLeads.us – Five Common Mistakes Life Insurance Agents Make

Posted on September 26, 2012 by admin

Selling life insurance is a lucrative business that can pave the way to retirement but many agents don’t last long falling into common pitfalls that are avoidable if they only knew.

MISTAKE 1: Don’t be a Super Ball
When agents enter the business the first tendency is to bounce around from carrier to IMO to carrier to lead company and so on. Much like a super ball, agents never generate traction because they are bouncing from opportunity to opportunity never giving any of them enough time to blossom. Don’t be a super ball, stick with what you try long enough to learn and grow.

MISTAKE 2: Not focusing on appointment setting
Appointment setting is the catalyst for the sale and life insurance agents need to master this skill or they will not succeed. Many agents try to avoid setting appointments opting for others to do it for them whether they hire an employee or company to set appointments. Delegating appointment setting and not setting your own appointments is a big mistake that should be avoided. Master the skill of appointment setting and watch your sales volume spike.

MISTAKE 3: Failure to find a good lead source
One of the hardest parts of becoming a successful independent life agent is finding a good lead source. Many sources on the internet are there to sell you recycled and shared leads. You need a company that views themselves as your partner in sales production that is dependable and reputable. Never work with a company that shares your leads or your lead territory. Learn more at http://www.voiceleads.us

MISTAKE 4: Not buying enough leads each month
In this industry you need to have the mentality of, “I purchase leads, I set appointments, I close business, I get paid!” The problem is the, “I purchased leads,” is not implemented enough. Many agents purchase leads and wait another 2-4 weeks until they purchase more leads. During this time their production slumps and sales are never consistent. You must purchase at leads 10 leads a week, each and every week, to keep your sales pipeline full. Use credit to your advantage and float marketing costs for 30 days until you receive your commissions then pay back. Keep the pipeline filled and watch your sales remain consistent.

MISTAKE 5:  Never exploring the benefits of recruiting other agents
The joy of life insurance sales is that you can recruit a downline to do the selling for you while receiving overrides on business. To do this you must have an exclusive lead source to attract agents, good carriers to write with and great commissions to share. Recruiting can eliminate the ground pounding you experience selling and delegate it to your sales staff that will do it for you. Grow your business by recruiting others!

Posted on April 18, 2011 by admin

Have you ever tried selling life insurance over the phone but failed because you didn’t have the proper script? Have you ever wanted to eavesdrop on an insurance agent selling over the phone so you could learn how they did it, word for word? Well the wait is over.

The secrets to selling life insurance over the phone are now revealed in four training audios that were recorded live during four separate sales over the phone calls between a life insurance agent and four different prospects. These four, recorded-live, sales events give the agent a step by step guide on how to open and control the conversation, what questions to ask in the correct order, how to set up for the close, how to tactfully ask for banking information and most importantly how to close and transition to tele-underwriting.

“The best way to learn is by imitation and this is an opportunity to listen and later imitate the exact words and phrases that led to four separate life sales over the phone,” says Mike Fitzgerald, president of VoiceLeads.us. “When you listen to these audios you will hear that the agent says the same thing in order each time. This is a script that sells and you can hear it for yourself and sell your way to a prosperous career.” Fitzgerald said.

These are powerful training audios not available anywhere else. You get to hear exactly how a sale is conducted over the phone as it was recorded live on four different occasions. “If the agent just repeats what is said on the audios then they are on there way to a six-figure income without ever leaving their home,” says Fitzgerald.

Selling life insurance over the phone is rapidly becoming the trend in the insurance industry as life insurance companies allow for this more and more. Agents will soon realize that paying $4 a gallon gas and going on at least one “no-show” appointment a day is not a cost-effective way to run their business.

Life Insurance Recruiting, Secrets to Success

Posted on February 7, 2011 by admin

Many life insurance agents want to grow their agencies and manage a group of agents hoping to make overrides on the business they produce. However life insurance agents with aspirations of building an agency find it hard to attract and recruit agents.

The secrets to building a life insurance agency is having a great set of life insurance carriers to work with, a great lead system that keeps your recruits producing in the field and a website that is appealing and intriguing.li

Life Insurance Carriers
There are hundreds of life insurance carriers to choose from. As an agency manager, you want to appoint with those that offer low pricing, an easy and short application process and companies with great agent customer service.

The first mistake agents make is contracting with dozens and dozens of companies they will never write one piece of business with. First of all, don’t do this. All you need are a group or portfolio of about six life insurance companies that can insurance anybody from healthy to not healthy, age 0-89.

When choosing your portfolio contract with companies for the following: 1. life insurance company that provides fully underwritten term and the lowest cost. 2. A life insurance company that provides non-med term and non-med term with return of premium table rated to a four.  3. A few life insurance companies that provide final expense whole life insurance.  4. A life insurance company that will insure anybody, we call this your last resort company.

Here is a company that has got it right. Life Agent Alliance has this combination of carriers built around speed, ease, customer service and pricing.

Leads
You will never recruit a single agent unless you have a lead system that is exclusive, fresh and intriguing. Once you find this lead system, you must guard your lead source the way you would protect your family. If your agents find out who your lead source is, they can go around you and buy direct from your lead provider. Voiceleads.us is a lead source you can use that serves many agencies across the country. They offer a do-it-yourself lead service that allows you to control the lead generation yourself, eliminating the middle man between you and your leads. This puts the agency manager in control of the lead process and creates stability for your agency. Learn more at voiceleads.us

Recruiting Website
Many agencies fail when it comes to a recruiting website. Have you seen the agency websites that look like they were built back in 1990? Honestly, would you trust your livelyhood with an agency that can’t even produece a sexy looking website? Of course not. When you build your website, it must be fresh, inviting and intriguing. Again look at what Life Agent Alliance does. This website says, “professional,” “got it together,” “we know what we are doing.”

Your website is as important as your lead source and the carriers you write. Don’t make it look amateurish and out-dated!

We hope this bit of information helps you grow your career. Good Luck!

Do it Yourself Insurance Lead Generation

Posted on December 11, 2010 by admin

Voiceleads.us is pleased to announce the addition of Do It Yourself insurance lead generation or DIY insurance lead generation for those agents who want to be in control of their own lead generation and distribution.

The DIY lead generation system gives VoiceLeads clients access to their powerful telephone server that allows them to generate their own exclusive voicemails or direct live transfer leads for the life insurance and final expense markets. This is the same telephone server used to generate voicemails and direct live transfers for the full-service division of the business.

“Now agents have access to the same system and tools VoiceLeads uses to generate thousands of leads for our clients,” says Mike Fitzgerald president and owner of Voiceleads.US. “Instead of paying labor for us to generate the leads you now can pay less and generate the insurance leads yourself but with our system,” he said.

Voiceleads.US launched DIY lead generation division to add another option to their list of insurance lead services that include a full-service exclusive voicemail leads and direct live transfer lead generation for the life insurance and final expense markets. This powerful telephone server gives agents the freedom and flexibility to generate and distribute their own leads putting the agent in the driver’s seat at all times. Even better, now the agent can generate their own exclusive voicemail leads or turn their home or office into a call center at anytime they choose, using the patent-pending telephone system.

“We felt our company needed a “do it yourself,” option to help serve our clients but at first we were apprehensive about giving access to our system but since we own the technology, but now nobody can duplicate it,” says Fitzgerald.

During the launch, many agents expressed how they prefer the control of generating their own leads and feel this will help them grow an agency.

“Having a lead source you control is critical if you want to build an agency,” says Jeff Pope an agent in Aurora, Ill., who manages over two dozen agents and purchases roughly 20,000 minutes a week in order to feed his hungry salesmen. “Now that I am in control of my own lead system, I can attract agents and retain them because I now can generate my own leads with a system used by a professional lead company,” he said. “I am in control,” he added.

Users of the new DIY Lead Generation system receive round the clock customer support and free access to telephone data reducing costs further. Purchases are made in blocks of minutes and everybody receives a secure user name and login password in order to access the system. Once a short training program is complete, agents will have access to the system and begin generating leads immediately.
