Insurance Agent Forum

[Ramond B]

Can anyone email me the inside story on this one. I have no idea what company you are talking about and what exactly happened. Any info on fallen competitors is helpful.

[Ramond B]

I wanted to give everyone a little update going into December. WE currently have 8 campaigns running leaving us with room for 2 current open time slots for us to call on. In addition we have 2 of our 8 accounts that are wanting to wait until after Christmas to resume their campaigns. So going into December we do have openings for 3-4 clients to get into our calling schedule. If you have inquired and were told that we were full in the last few weeks now is your chance to lock up your slot.

If you have wanted warm pre set callbacks or preset appointments please let me know.

Thanks

I figured Ray would keep this thread lively. The "Offers" section is where it belongs.

Agreed - he's getting a little "overboard" in using it for his personal marketing...

[Ramond B]

To say that I am taking my marketing "over board" is rediculous. I have even asked the owner of this site to send me advertising options on several occasions so I am not just on here advertising. I even gave out over 30+ FREE leads to prove myself before i promoted one thing...How much more professional can i be.... sheeeesh!

I figured this was the "lead section" so when I started selling the leads i figured giving the demo leads away here where more people would see them and have a chance to try them when they were free.

I will say that It's been nearly 4 months since I started this thread (11 months on this site in full) and no one is posting anything negative about the leads, dialer service, or the lists I sell. If you have a legitimate marketing company (very few of us left), I'm not sure why you wouldn't want that person as part of your board, or even get offended if and when he lets you all know about lead openings. In my opinion a good, honest, lead provider would be an asset to you all.

The other reason I updated the board was because up until the middle of last week we did tell quite a few people that our schedule was full. Some of that traffic came from here so i thought a quick update may help ESPECIALLY if people wanted to get GOOD leads from someone they can trust.

In the end we can't please everyone, especially those who have never purchased our products. I wish you all the best of luck.

I will ask that the moderator/owner please send me some advertising options so i can help sponsor this site like i do so many others.

Thanks in advance!

OK, Raymond and I have working together on health leads...I've worked all kinds of leads, NQ, PZ, you name it, I've tried it. And every single time, pretty much without exception, they have sucked monkey nuts. Even telemarketed leads I get from GAs, completely hit or miss and half the time I can't even get in touch with at least a 1/3 of them...many times it's more than that.

I've gotten 10 leads from Raymond in the last week or so, one was pretty much uninsurable (overweight, Type II <insulin>, HBP, cholesterol), but I may place him on a GI policy, or best case, with the Texas risk pool (still a 50 dollar commish, not a total loss). I've already closed two other transactions and will probably close two more this week. Both of which are restaurants that have about 10 lives altogether. Tomorrow should be a very nice day.

Everytime I ask the client if the experience with Raymond's people was good and without exception I'm told they were courteous, professional and helpful. I'll work with him to fine tune to qualify them a little bit more, but up to this point it hasn't been a real problem...

I cannot recommend Raymond's service more highly. Hands down the best leads I've ever had and there will be other business that will pop from these 10 over the next couple of weeks.

If you're on the fence...give him a shot, I can't imagine you'd be disappointed.

[larestegui]

The guy doesn't return your call after two months, and you want to do business? Are you a masochist or something?

[Ramond B]

Luis you can contact me at 702-205-0502 or you can call the office 800-81-1402 and talk to one of our agents. if you need anything else my email is raymond@bestratereferrals.com

Thanks!

Are you serious? If I missed a message on my cell phone i do apologize, however I certainly don't think that is reason not to work with me OR. Moonlight you sure seem to be very very negative person. you also have a lot of posts and seem to be on every thread. In the past when i see this on forums it usually represents a person who has nothing better to do with their time then to attack people that are doing well for themselves. Man if you spent as much time on building your own business as you do posting on this board you would probably be doing good enough to never have to come here at all, let alone spend half your day here.... Just a thought!

Whether you like it or not I am good at what I do, people are making money with my company's marketing, and Ill be here a long time to come. If you really think that I am bumping this thread with alternate names (as you suggested earlier) you can have any moderator or site admin look into it. I run a sold operation and have no need to do anything like that.

Good luck to you!

I am glad to hear you are doing so well Greg! I love to hear feedback, it makes my hard work all worth while. I also look forward to the feedback that can help us make thing even better. Currently we are going to look into doing mortgage protection-life insurance type marketing as well. I look forward to growing my business along with and along side all of you!

Good luck to you on the rest of your leads bud!

Ramond, (Raymond?)

Thanks for your input. I call 'em as I see 'em - no holds barred. I don't suffer fools gladly, and I couldn't care less what you think. If you wish to characterize that as "negative" - have at it.

Think of me as being kind of like the football coach Bill Parcells. Very honest. Blunt. Maybe a little irritating to some - but a winner.

As a casual side note Ramond (Raymond?), I'm having a record year for new clients, sales and profits. I'm doing very nicely thank you - and I don't have to spam on forums to do it.

[Ramond B]

Moonlight, I am as up front as the next guy, ever talk to me and you will find that out. I don't hold anything back either and i take my marketing and my business very seriously. Try and take a step back and look at this entire last few posts. You don't look intelligent at all. You are the ONLY one posting negative. One guy sais I missed his call and you FREAK all out calling him names for understanding that messages can get missed. WOW, real professional, get a grip! I mean heck if i missed it two months ago i certainly wouldn't be able to ge the message later on. I have already emailed Luis and sent him a PM.

You say you don't have to spam on forums to get it...hmmm....you sure do have a lot of posts here....

Now I know if you are doing good like you say then you probably get some kind of business from this site (whether its linking, direct traffic, agent recruiting or whatever you do here), OTHERWISE you wouldn't be here. There would be no other reason for you to spend so much of your time trolling the boards unless you had a purpose.

Moon, I am not in the business of selling insurance at all, I am a marketing guy with a ton of ability to generate business in many different ways for many different industries. We own a call center, direct mail press facility, access to every major database that is in existance as well as many dialer platforms for in house and virtual call centers. Forums area great place to get knowledge, offer advice, and get traffic if you offer legitimate service to that industry. For me they work great BECAUSE I treat people right and they make money with our services. Its not the amount of good posts you should be looking at. Its the lack of negative stuff on a thread of nearly 6k views. That means a heck of a lot especially when the internet is FULL of haters line MOON here.

I want to wish everyone good luck in business throughout the Holidays!

What is your cost per lead?

[Ramond B]

Mr. Kropp, I got your email and the lead is on its way. So far we gave out lead 1 and 5. We still have leads 2, 3, and 4 left. We also have the call in lead that was a group insurance request in PA. If you want one of these four leads please post and email me your contact information. Thanks!

Jody, my cost per lead depends on the quantity you purchase but here is the break down.

10 leads is $22 per lead
20 leads is $21 per lead
40 leads is $20 per lead
75 leads is $19 per lead
100 leads is $18 per lead

(all leads are customized for you to personally return the call or show up at the appointment. We customize your lead for your surrounding area so you can meet with them to ensure higher closing ratio)

If you have any more questions or you just want one of the FREE leads post away!

[billyb2909]

Got any more free leads? I am in KY.

[Ramond B]

I have leads number 2, 3, 4 left. Keep an eye out on here over the next few weeks! if you ever want a custom campaign in your area we can do them on your behalf.

Happy Holidays to all!
