If you're a P&C producer or agent and life insurance conversations feel awkward, forced, or like you're being pushy — it's not a you problem. It's a design problem.In this episode, I break down why most agencies struggle with cross-selling life insurance and why the common advice of "just bring it up on every call" is actually setting you up for more rejection, lower confidence, and fewer sales.Here's what we cover:→ Why life insurance is inherently harder to sell in the P&C world (and it's not just because it's not required)→ The real reason you're getting hit with "I got it through work," "I can't afford it," and "I'm good" on every call→ How the "pitch more" strategy creates a rejection cycle that kills your confidence and your action→ The difference between low-leverage and high-leverage moments — and why timing changes everything→ Why it's not a skill problem, it's a design problem — and what that actually means for your agencyMost P&C producers are having life insurance conversations in the wrong moments. When you understand which interactions carry natural context and which ones don't, everything gets easier for both you AND the customer.Stop pitching. Start timing.Want to learn the exact scripts and frameworks? Cross Sell Academy enrollment is open now.

The insurance industry has been lying to you — telling you that if you can't sell the "right" amount of life insurance, don't sell anything at all. Meanwhile, families are left with $8,000 in savings and a GoFundMe page.In this episode, I'm breaking down why "something is better than nothing" isn't just a feel-good phrase — it's backed by the numbers. I'll show you why all-or-nothing thinking is killing your life insurance production, how small policies actually lead to bigger ones, and why your customers' reality doesn't match the way most agencies approach life insurance.If you're a P&C agent or agency owner struggling to cross-sell life insurance, this one will change how you think about every customer interaction.What you'll learn: → Why partial protection is still protection → The real reason small policies lapse (it's not the size) → How to make life insurance fit the conversation your customer is already having → The "coffee vs. five-course dinner" mistake most agents make → How $25/month policies turn into $200/month programsWant to learn the exact scripts and frameworks?

In this episode, I break down why "just ask more" is the worst advice you can give your team when it comes to selling life insurance in a P&C agency — and what to do instead. I unpack why asking without strategy kills confidence, creates early objections, and turns your producers into people who eventually stop asking altogether. Then I walk through the three things that actually move the needle: positioning life insurance around what it does for the customer (not what it is), nailing your timing so it doesn't feel like a bait and switch, and solving one immediate need instead of trying to serve a five-course dinner to someone who came in for a coffee. If you're an agent and tired of being the only one in your agency able to sell life insurance, this one's for you.Join my free live training on how to handle the most common life insurance objections when cross selling life insurance: https://insurancesalespro.org/webinarregistrationLearn about Cross Sell Academy for your team: https://calendly.com/lifeinsurancetraining/demo✅ Subscribe to Colter's FREE insurance sales trainings:Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-35rEOirer-rBo62SAokawApple Podcasts:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-life-insurance-training-show/id1675925320Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/0EYYJYvouM22DfuAcYjhiK?si=m8gTTwvFReGfSIGQ7yZHcQPrivate Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/share/g/sSe3faCfV6KLVJh4/
Your auto renewals aren't just policy updates—they're your most predictable life insurance opportunity. In this episode, I break down the exact framework I used to turn routine renewal calls into consistent life insurance sales.Here's what you'll learn: why auto renewals create the perfect moment to introduce life insurance (hint: it's all about relevance and earning the right to the conversation), how to position coverage as a natural extension of what customers already have, and the two simple approaches that make saying "yes" easy—paying off a vehicle loan or leaving money behind for family.I walk through the complete call flow from opening to close, including the exact words to use so the conversation feels like service instead of a sales pitch. Plus, I share why starting small with one immediate need beats the "shotgun approach" that triggers resistance and kills deals before they start.If you're tired of inconsistent life insurance production and want a repeatable system you can hand to your team today, this one's for you.Learn about Cross Sell Academy for your team: https://calendly.com/lifeinsurancetraining/demoJoin my free live training on how to handle the most common life insurance objections when cross selling life insurance: https://insurancesalespro.org/webinarregistration✅ Subscribe to Colter's FREE insurance sales trainings:Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-35rEOirer-rBo62SAokawApple Podcasts:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-team-member-perspective/id1675925320Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/0EYYJYvouM22DfuAcYjhiK?si=m8gTTwvFReGfSIGQ7yZHcQPrivate Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/share/g/sSe3faCfV6KLVJh4/
Most producers freeze when they hear "I have it through work" or "I can't afford it."In this episode, I'm breaking down the exact scripts and framework I used to handle the 7 most common life insurance objections in P&C agencies, and why the best producers don't handle objections at all. They prevent them.What you'll learn:The 4-step framework (Acknowledge, Clarify, Solve, Advance) that works for any objectionWhy "overcome" is the wrong word, and what to say insteadThe difference between early objections (obstacles) and late objections (true objections)Word-for-word scripts for: "I have it through work," "I don't need it," "I can't afford it," "I just want the car insurance," "I need to talk to my spouse," and "I need to think about it"The questions that seed doubt and create demand without being pushyWhy I stopped saying "life insurance" and what I say insteadThis isn't theory. These are the exact scripts that took me from 10 life policies a year to 251.Register for Free Live Training: https://insurancesalespro.org/webinarregistrationBook Time with Colter: https://calendly.com/lifeinsurancetraining/demo✅ Subscribe to Colter's FREE insurance sales trainings:Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-35rEOirer-rBo62SAokawApple Podcasts:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-team-member-perspective/id1675925320Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/0EYYJYvouM22DfuAcYjhiK?si=m8gTTwvFReGfSIGQ7yZHcQPrivate Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/share/g/sSe3faCfV6KLVJh4/
In this episode, I break down the EXACT system that took me from $35K to $100K to $151K in life insurance premium. Issuance reviews. Most agents write a policy and move on to the next thing — and they're leaving SO much on the table. Here's the deal: if they told you yes once, they will tell you yes again. This system gives you another at-bat with every single life insurance customer, it increases your odds of writing more premium, AND it generates referrals without you having to beg for them. I'm walking you through everything — how to pre-sell the review at the initial close, how to actually SELL in the review (not just make an offer), and the simple 3-step referral process that made asking for referrals automatic for me. If you want to double or even triple your life insurance premium in 2025, this is the play. Let's get into it.We have a free training THIS THURSDAY 01/22 on selling more Life Insurance - Here's the link to join us: http://insurancesalespro.org/webinarregistrationQuestions about enrolling your team in our Friday Live Training & Wednesday Live Role Play Calls?

In this episode, we break down why you're sitting on a gold mine and leaving 60-70% of your revenue on the table. Every quote you run is a life insurance opportunity, but most P&C agents bolt it on at the end after the customer's mentally checked out. Then they wonder why they get "I have it through work" or "not right now."Here's what changes everything: Layer life insurance into the quote as complementary coverage, not an afterthought. When you position it naturally during the process instead of after, you eliminate resistance before it starts, make your book stickier, and finally stop letting carriers own your customers.I walk through the exact timing and language that turns every new household into a bundled account. If you're only closing auto and home, you're building half a business.Questions about enrolling your team in our Friday Live Training & Wednesday Live Role Play Calls?

Most people think life insurance is only about protecting income, but one of the most powerful ways to position it is around their mortgage. In this episode, Colter shares how he went from struggling to sell a handful of life apps a year to writing over 200 by using the “mortgage protection play.” We talk about why the best time to bring it up is when someone's buying a home, how to frame coverage so it feels simple and doable, and how to open conversations in a way that gets customers reflecting instead of brushing you off. If you want your team members consistently selling 100+ life apps a year, this strategy is a game changer.#LifeInsuranceSales #MortgageProtection #InsuranceTraining #TMP #StateFarmAgent #InsuranceAgent #StateFarm #TeamMemberPerspective✅ Questions about enrolling your team in our Friday Live Training & Wednesday Live Role Play Calls?

It's not all about tactics, it's about perspective. If your team sees sales as pushy or manipulative, they'll never feel confident doing it.This episode is about reframing sales as service — helping customers recognize their needs before offering a solution.Top performers don't pressure. They disarm, listen, and create demand by finding problems first.That mindset shift is the difference between quoting… and actually selling.#SalesMindset #TeamPerformance #ProblemSolvers #ModernSelling #LeadershipTraining#StateFarmAgent #InsuranceAgent #StateFarm #TMP #ColterJohnson #TeamMemberPerspective ✅ Questions about enrolling your team in our Friday Live Training & Wednesday Live Role Play Calls?

In this episode, we're breaking down two simple tips to make life and health insurance sales easier for your team. It starts with making it make sense to the person you're selling to—do they have a young driver on the policy? Would their family be left without income if something happened? Keep it logical, not emotional. From there, pick one need and start the conversation there. It naturally simplifies the process. Once you do that, the life insurance funnel becomes easy to use, coverage increases, and revenue follows.#InsuranceSales #TMP #LifeInsuranceSales #TMPPodcast #salessuccess #teammemberperspective #insurance #salestraining #motivation #insuranceagent #statefarmagent #salesprocess #mindset #colterjohnson #salestips #insurancereview #insurancesales #policysales #agency #simplesells #simplesales #lifeinsurance #healthinsurance ✅ Questions about enrolling your team in our Friday Live Training & Wednesday Live Role Play Calls?

The first step to becoming a top-tier insurance agent is self-awareness—looking in the mirror, not the window. Success comes from recognizing your strengths, owning your weaknesses, and making intentional improvements. The best agents operate with a carnivore mindset—proactive, deliberate, and intentional about who they learn from and surround themselves with.✅ Questions about enrolling your team in our Friday Live Training & Wednesday Live Role Play Calls?
