Back to Basics Client Building Philosophy "The profit is in the relationship, not the sale.“ --Alfred Granum How do you achieve a combination of money, individual freedom and service to others? The answer lies in building a client base.
3
Client vs. Policyholder Policyholder engages in a single sales transaction with an agent and buys one at a time. Client buys repeatedly. On average a client will buy 6 different times from their agent. Whether the client is an individual or a business, they will continue to buy from the agent who understands and responds to their changing needs.
4
Needs Based vs. Transaction Based Selling A client is built through need based rather than transaction based selling. Client building is through listening and focusing on their needs. This will develop long term clients. Sales people are selling products, but customers are buying relationships.

Family Changes: New marriage, divorce, new baby, new home, supporting elderly family member or other changes Business Changes: New business, sold business, new loan, new partners or other changes A repeat sale is easy compared to the effort to obtain the new client

Let Us Be Your Back Office Support Don't have enough time to review your client’s life policy? Not sure if that old policy is still the best for your client? Have a bunch of old clients who need policy review, but don’t know where to start?
13
Case Study Last year, one of our agents who had not been practicing a basic annual policy review gave us 247 policies to review... 95% of which were term. He wrote 114 new applications and placed 92 of them for a total premium of $121k. Not only did he make an additional $121k that year, but he dramatically improved his client's policies and turned them from policy holders to clients.
14
Like Any Industry, Progress Has Been Made Some decisions took longer than they should have......like when you said, "My typewriter is as good as any computer" and "I'll never use a mobile phone" or "I don't need e-mail when I have the postal service.“ You are facing a similar choice right now: to use National's One "E" System or not. There are certain decisions that are easy and this is one of them.
15
Some Decisions are Easy… Your client choosing a new policy after you perform a review that lowers their premium and extends their coverage Use the OES or not: Send a personalized approach letter to all your clients at once Have all your clients info in one location Prepare side by comparisons Regular follow up correspondence

Back to Basics “Without a system you have no real chance to accomplish your goals” - Alfred Granum "Whole process couldn't have been easier.
