I fully understand to sell value and not price - I've heard that from virtually every sales manager that I've ever worked with. The reality is, is that this client is not looking for anything more than a term policy from a reputable carrier - He doesn't care about conversion options, or any of the other bells and whistles, just straight term.
Since Genworth's rating has slipped as of late (AM Best A- Negative Outlook), I was more trying to gather a consensus as to whether you guys feel comfortable in recommending Genworth to new prospects, as I'm kind of on the fence.. For instance, Principal is next in line on the pricing and they will go up to 251 on the weight. Therefore, if he looses a bit of weight and I can get him to Std+ NT with Principal, then it makes perfect sense, as all of the other carriers are going to bump him down to Std NT. Essentially, I try to get my clients the best rates from the least expensive carriers available, while also trying to find them exactly what they're looking for.
Lastly, I also don't believe in the notion that cheaper is always an inferior product.. For instance, on the attached quotes, Principal is next in line.. Would you say that Principal is an inferior company, and if so, which carrier might you recommend? Also, where would he top out health-wise with the company you'd recommend, based on their published guidelines and I'd be curious to know their pricing for the same face/term length??
