Hey Everyone,
I'm a fairly new agent with Northwestern Mutual. Recently I bought my first marketing list.
I've done some cold dialing off of it and have been able to set a few appointments just off the first page(out of 21 pages). I talked to my mentor about it and he said that it was a waste of time because it's not following the system of Northwestern which is only referrals. I love the referral system but quite honestly it's not giving my the number of appointments that I need. Of course calling my referrals is my priority but what am I suppose to do after I have just called them all reached 4 and set 1. Twiddle my thumbs?
I like Northwestern because I have access to Northwestern products but have the ability to shop around for my clients.
I think I am still going to continue cold calling. What would you guys suggest?
