Hi Guys
I am starting year 4 as a broker and redoing my goals. My original goal was to get to 100k in commission in 5 years, well I have surpassed that at the end of last year. Between 22-23 I saw a 69% increase in my commissions and I want to continue my momentum.
I know I'm going to get for this but I have not been tracking my new client numbers. I know, I know I should have been doing this from the start but life has been crazy and I have been focusing on the $$$ rather than client count.
I am anticipating a very decent renewal income and now I really want to focus on new growth. How many new clients do you guys aim for every year? And how do you manage new growth and your current book at AEP?
My Medicare book has shifted to more of a 50/50 between Med Supp and MAPD. I also do Marketplace although now I am looking to hand off my clients that are under 50 to our new employee (she's a lot like me and I feel my clients will get the same level of service). I really want to focus on the senior market going forward.
I have never bought leads and my growth has been organic via word of mouth. I feel like locally my name is well known and now I want to expand my footprint.
I have always wanted to grow beyond my area and recently a few of my snowbirds have permanently relocated to FL and have been telling all their friends about me but I haven't taken the leap towards getting licensed beyond my home state. I also have family and friends requesting I get licensed in NH, MA, CT, and NC.
I know I will have sufficient numbers to cover the cost of getting licensed and contracted but I am trying to figure out how to work it. I love doing face to face but obviously bouncing from state to state during AEP isn't going to happen.
My thought is I could pop down to the areas of my clients, friends and family during OEP just to meet their friends and neighbors so I have that connection with them, then handle AEP over the phone. Going during OEP will also allow me to help those who aren't satisfied with their plans and aren't LIS.
What are you guys thoughts, and who's going to Vegas for the Medicarians this year. I am although I feel a bit out of my league.
