Selling Life Insurance Over Phone Or Online

Selling over the phone requires phone sales skills. It's doable, but you have to be personable, and clear. I have heard people whine and complain about failing at it before, yet why can I thrive doing it? I have been selling things over the phone for 15 years. I had to LEARN to be good at it. Made 1000 mistakes.

You do have to have a good lead budget, I agree. I have made a killing off $1 aged leads before, but generally, I close 1 out of 50-100 of those, depending on how good the source is. Some people can't accept the idea of losing $99 before you make a sale. I can, it's a numbers game. Buying leads is a business.

My average AP off aged leads tends to be in the $700 range. Commissionable premium on those tends to be around 114%, of which I get paid 70% from my agency. So my commission is $558. So every dollar I spend, I get back $5.58 in return, on average. That's the way you need to look at it.

I buy generally $500 worth of leads per week, which will earn me $2,790 per week. It doesn't all work out like that exactly, because some of the leads will take 1-6 months to close, but eventually, it always works out like that. Been doing it for years.

Someone before me mentioned a $5 to 1 ratio. Works out EXACTLY that way for me. Mine is $5.58 to 1 on aged internet leads.

I was in a negative ratio for premium internet leads and telemarketing leads. Those are the biggest scam known to man. 27 people calling the same lead.
