Need advice as to why I am not closing.
The past two weeks I've been pitching hard, but not closing. I am cold calling between 4pm and 9pm daily and re-pitching leads 12pm -1pm. I am selling term life, no medical exam. Currently with an MGA, so I have access to instant quotes from companies such as Mutual of Omaha, Prudential, US life etc.
I've been selling PC for 2 years and mortgages before that, so I have the sales experience.
I called cold countless people (lead sources range from online leads, new property sales, and any human with a pulse in the five boroughs).
For example, this week I quoted 16 of which 2 scheduled appointments. One of the appointments never answered the phone to confirm and the other one is scheduled for next week, so who knows.
Is this normal for term life? Should I refuse to give a quote over the phone and ask for the appointment instead? I must have pitched hundreds of people with only 16 to quote and not close.
