  2. Why People Need The Products We Sell

  3. Only 61 percent of adult Americans have life insurance protection, a decline from 70 percent in 1984. Only 41 percent of adult Americans have individual life insurance. Many rely on group insurance, leaving them vulnerable if they lose a job. *Facts from LIMRA International for Life Insurance Awareness Month (LIAM) Millions of Americans have no life insurance coverage.

  4. The average life insurance need is about $459,000, (12 times the average income) but the average amount of life insurance owned is $126,000. Therefore, the average underinsurance is more than $300,000. *Facts from LIMRA International for Life Insurance Awareness Month (LIAM) Most people who have insurance coverage don't have enough.

  5. Some 45 percent of widows and 37 percent of widowers say their spouse was inadequately insured. One to two years after the death, half the widows and one third of the widowers are just getting by financially. On average, widows (who receive life insurance proceeds) receive about three times the household income from all life insurance proceeds, while widowers receive one year of household income. *Facts from LIMRA International for Life Insurance Awareness Month (LIAM) People who die prematurely with inadequate life insurance coverage create a financial burden on the surviving family.

  6. Because households are underinsured, there is not enough coverage to materially improve the finances of the deceased's household. Some 13 percent would immediately have trouble meeting everyday living expenses. Another 25 percent would have difficulty keeping up with expenses after several months. *Facts from LIMRA International for Life Insurance Awareness Month (LIAM) Nearly half the population seems inadequately prepared if the primary breadwinner were to die tomorrow.

  7. Widows and widowers indicate an average period of four to five years before their financial circumstances return to what they were at the time of their spouse’s death. Two thirds of spouses who do receive life insurance benefits receive less than three times the annual income of the deceased. Average amounts of coverage for those having life insurance is about three times their income. That’s less than the four to five years needed for recovery. *Facts from LIMRA International for Life Insurance Awareness Month (LIAM) It takes years to recover economically from the death of a spouse.

  8. Despite evidence of being underinsured, only 29 percent of households feel they need more life insurance coverage. Even more affluent households (>$100,000 household income) lack sufficient life insurance, yet say they have sufficient coverage. In the last two years, 11 percent of American households shopped for life insurance but only 8 percent bought - about 890,000 households out of 111 million. *Facts from LIMRA International for Life Insurance Awareness Month (LIAM) Large numbers of Americans don't recognize their need for life insurance coverage

  9. Agents are seen as more useful than the Internet, books and magazines, or TV and radio programs. Of households that shop for life insurance, 45 percent never have had a Needs Analysis done to help them determine how much life insurance they need. Consequently 53 percent of shoppers say they have difficulty determining how much life insurance to buy. *Facts from LIMRA International for Life Insurance Awareness Month (LIAM) Life insurance Agents are seen as the most useful source of information when buying life insurance.

To do this, the Agent rebates their first year commission to pay the first year’s premium for the Insured . • “For each policy sold, a $10 first year commission is paid into the Agent’s commission account. Then, the $10 is deducted from the commission account and is used to pay the customer’s first year premium on the ADP policy.  As such, the net pay out to the agent is zero.” • Florida Only!

  32. Marketing Ideas That Work!

  33. Introductory Offers/ Sponsorships

  34. Introductory Offers/Sponsorships • The Laptop Introductory Offer video builds value with the goal of generating additional sponsorships and a system to capture names.

  35. Introductory Offers/Sponsorships • Liberty National Activity Plan – Week One • And the usual 5-7 sales @ 33%-50% closing utilizing the laptop

  36. Introductory Offers/Sponsorships • Call sponsorships and multiply your efforts:

  37. Introductory Offers/Sponsorships 90% of people accept the Introductory Offer. After all, who doesn’t want something for nothing?

  38. Introductory Offers/Sponsorships • Ask good questions: • Bad – “Who else do you know that needs • insurance?”

  39. Introductory Offers/Sponsorships • Ask good questions: • Good – “Who else do you know that has: • – a small business?” • – small children?” • – a new baby or is expecting a baby?” • – grandchildren?” • – nieces or nephews?”

  40. Introductory Offers/Sponsorships • Ask good questions: • Good –“What about: • – neighbors?” • – relatives?” • – co-workers?” • – concerned parents or PTA groups?” • – Teachers and Principals?” • – owners of childcare businesses?”

  41. Introductory Offers/Sponsorships Ask to put your number in their cell phone. Ask if they would allow their friends to have access to the introductory offer.

  42. Introductory Offers/Sponsorships Sponsorships carry an implied endorsement. “Hello Mrs. Jones. Mrs. Smith asked me to call you and share one of our Introductory Offers with you.”

  43. Introductory Offers/Sponsorships • When should you ask? The best time to ask is from the beginning!

  44. Introductory Offers/Sponsorships When should you ask? Before you start selling insurance. And When you deliver the policy.

  45. Introductory Offers/Sponsorships When should you ask? While saying thanks. When following up.

  46. Introductory Offers/Sponsorships When should you ask? After each Introductory Offer module in the Laptop Sales Presentation. As a matter of fact, the laptop will do the work for you but you may have to help them along by asking them for their club, PTA or work, directory, etc.

  47. Cold Calls

  48. Cold Calls • When you don’t have the money or don’t want to spend the money to buy leads, cold calling works. • Use the phone or knock on doors.

  49. Fairs

  50. Fairs “The best thing I’ve ever done. State or regional fairs will average 300,000 people over several days and 1/3 of those will not have insurance. And as you know, almost everybody you talk to is uninsured or underinsured for life or health insurance. You are not going to get better numbers than that.”
