I am a new agent to both the life and health field.
Does anyone know if it is compliant to knock on someone's door to talk about final expense, and then give them a business card that says you sell Final expense, Medicare advantage, Medicare supplement, and Rx drug plans?
my card simply lists that those are some of the products I sell. It does not list any of the carriers I sell for.
Also, I am aware that I cannot cross sell right there on the spot if the customer is interested, I would have to come back another day.
Technically I am not door knocking to talk about Medicare, but if the customer sees that I sell Medicare products on my card, then they can ask me about it and I can set up a scope of appointment if they are interested, right?
Again, I would not even mention anything about Medicare while door knocking, but if no one is home, can I leave a business card like the one described above?
Also, can I do the same thing with local businesses and leave the above mentioned card with them to display?
I could not for the life of me find an answer to this on CMS.gov.
All it says is that you cannot door knock for Medicare and you cannot leave marketing materials at their door.
Also, what if I instead wrote that I sell final expense and health insurance on the card, and didn't mention med advantage, supplement, or drug plans?
I can't help it if the customer asks me if I also sell Medicare, even if I don't have that on my business card.
Thanks for any advice.
