MIND SET. You're either strong in the area of confidence and mindset, or you're a weak little puppy. Which one is it? Insurance agents who lack confidence tend to write fewer new accounts each year, they write smaller accounts, and they don't win many (any?) signed Broker of Record Letters. The opposite is also 100% true: Insurance producers who are confident and in the right frame of mind set more appointments and write more accounts, they write larger revenue accounts, and they win significantly more clients through signed Broker of Record Letter. In this throwback episode of the Millionaire Insurance Producer podcast, host Charles Specht will not only tell you why MINDSET is so important for an insurance producer but he'll tell you the basic things you need to do -- today! -- in order to start dominating and winning! ---------- PS: Remember, the "PERMISSION PRODUCER SCHOOL" is launching on October 14, 2024. It will give you the blueprint for sales success which, in turn, gives you a strong mindset in order to do all of the above. Get registered right away as the price will be increasing very soon!

You get out what you put in. You win championships when you do the good work. You reap what you sow. These are the realities of what happens to people (and teams) who do the right things over and over again. Success comes to those who do the right work and stay consistent. Last time I checked, none of your insurance carriers pay any "consolation commission" when you come in 2nd place. It's all or nothing, baby! If you sow inactivity, you will reap the wind. If you sow inactivity for long periods of time, you'll reap the whirlwind. If you don't do the proper prospecting work, you won't schedule any new business appointments or win any signed BOR's or secure any deposit checks. The choice is yours. In this podcast episode, host Charles Specht reminds, motivates, and guides you on what and why you need to reconsider what you're doing in order to get the results you actually want. Key Topics: Why being busy doesn't mean being productive The real reason you're not getting appointments or BORs How second place in sales pays nothing literally The time audit every producer needs to do How the wrong daily tasks kill your commissions Why consistent prospecting is the only path to winning Imperfect action beats perfect inaction every time Reach out to Charles Specht Visit: Permission Network Produced by PodSquad.fm

Is it the time, or something different? We also talk about all the last minute prep we've not considered yet – the carb loading, the hydration, and how on earth we're going to cope on the day without having lunch. Please join us in a group hug before we run the big race! And if you're running too, and you're in London, do come to the Expo on Saturday 26th April, as me and Hol will be joining Jordan on stage to chat pre-race nerves and to pick up a few confidence tricks (and some more hugs).DiscordBefore I forget to say, come and join the gang on Discord for chats, support and new running friends.

Jenny is joined by guest host Brian Gottlock for a special chat with Kathie Bennewitz, Executive Director of Edward Hopper House Museum & Study Center in Nyack, NY, about how growing up with the light reflecting off the Hudson River shaped Hopper's art, how strong women shaped Hopper's life, and how he didn't make it big until age 40. Kathie also gave us a ton of wonderful recommendations to explore more Hopper beyond the house and dig deeper into art history in the Hudson Valley.

The Pod Squad donned their Hazmats and endured the festering swamp that is Smellworst, helped to out sing the chavlettes and cronies in the home end (with Andy K starting a new song for good measure) until their luckily-deflected winner settled matters and then again for most of the rest of the half until it finally became apparent that the good guys weren't going to be able to break down their low block - story of our lives against the lesser footballing sides! ;) Post match a handful of us showed our faces (classy move!) at the local pub we'd been invited to by the ‘other lot' for some banter and as far as Russell was concerned some tactical therapy….and a curry! Russ, Clive, Scott, Andy K, Mo, Alan, The Duncans, Courtney and, post match, Jim (making his pod debut) and P*lace's finest, Toby K provided the day's chat and opinion. Stand or fall! UTA!

Have we done enough mileage? Have we actually run enough? Have we eaten the things we should have eaten? Have we rested enough? We talk about logistics, we talk about crying, and the wobbles we have about those last long runs.Finish line proposalsAfter we chat to Jordan, we are back to talk about another controversy – and we would love to hear your thoughts.

Jenny wraps up our celebration of Women's History Month joined by a very special guest co-host, Kingston's own challah-baking good-time girl Ellen Leifer, for a conversation with Rabbi Sivan Rotholz about the importance of seeing yourself mirrored back to you in spaces of worship and learning; the most bad-ass women you've never heard of in Biblical history (and how they were demonized - sometimes literally - for not being compliant); how centering the experiences of women isn't just for women; and what everyone can learn from Judaism about the importance of community-building and resilience to combat the epidemic of loneliness. Want to hear more from Rabbi Sivan? Check out our Hudson Valley Holiday Story Hour episode; skip to 20:36 for the story of Judith, the Hanukkah Heroine.

There's something magnetic about people who follow joy like it's their inner compass. Anka is one of those people, and when we connected (very recently), I knew this was a conversation I wanted to have. In this episode, I chat with Anka, an ocean swimmer, traveller and German TV reporter who splits her time between Europe and Perth. We talk about what happens when you stop playing it safe and start saying yes to the things that light you up. Inside this conversation: How Anka found instant community through ocean swimming Growing up in rainy Germany and how it shaped her resilience Creating a life that follows the seasons Why you don't need the full plan before you take the leap The joy of movement, connection and shared coffees after a swim A shared love of cookbooks, culture and pomegranates And why “goodbye” isn't in Anka's vocab If you're craving adventure, connection, or just know you need ‘something different', this episode will give you that nudge to trust your curiosity and choose joy - even when it makes no sense on paper. Listen to the end to find out how to dissect a pomegranate (life hack included). And if you're in Perth and want to check out ocean swimming, the Pod Squad meet every day at North Cottesloe near sunrise (DM me for the deets).

You know, if a producer doesn't get to $100,000 of commission in a reasonable amount of time, they often either get fired or they find a new job outside of insurance. So, we not only need to help them get to $100,000 of commission but I think -- more importantly -- we need to get them to a $250,000 commission Book of Business as soon as humanly possible. Why? Because, once a producer gets to $250,000 in annual gross commission, they are usually not going to get fired, they're in the insurance business for life, and they're typically making six-figures in annual take home pay themselves. Therefore, that's why I am launching the PERMISSION PRODUCER SCHOOL, which is a 3-week intensive new producer sales training school to help new producers write $250,000 of commission in 1.5-2 years. (Go to www.permissiongroup.com to learn more) Key Topics: The importance of hitting the $100,000 gross commission milestone for job security. The challenge of transitioning from learning to producing quickly in the insurance industry. Strategies for reaching $250,000 in gross commission, including the Permission Producer School. The need to focus on a single micro-niche to accelerate growth from $100,000 to $250,000. Why a shift in strategy is required to move from $250,000 to $650,000 in commissions. Key changes needed to leap from $650,000 to $1.2 million, such as targeting larger accounts. The mindset and strategy shifts necessary to achieve a $3 million book of business.

(Go to www.permissiongroup.com to learn more) Key Topics: The importance of hitting the $100,000 gross commission milestone for job security. The challenge of transitioning from learning to producing quickly in the insurance industry. Strategies for reaching $250,000 in gross commission, including the Permission Producer School. The need to focus on a single micro-niche to accelerate growth from $100,000 to $250,000. Why a shift in strategy is required to move from $250,000 to $650,000 in commissions. Key changes needed to leap from $650,000 to $1.2 million, such as targeting larger accounts. The mindset and strategy shifts necessary to achieve a $3 million book of business.

Welcome to The Pod Squad!We review podcasts every week so you always have something new to listen to.98fm's Russell Alford and Laura Donnelly from the Newstalk Newsroom join Andrea to review ‘Call Her Daddy'!Image: Unwell Media
This week Nicola and Di chat with champion netballer Cath Cox AM and author and comedian Carolyn Swindell, co-hosts of the No Dribble podcast. Cath is one of Australia’s most successful netballers, having represented Australia in 108 appearances from 1997 - 2013 and winning multiple gold medals and world championships. Meanwhile Carolyn had a career that spanned 2 decades in corporate, politics and professional sport, before she turned to stand-up comedy at the age of 49. Together with Liz Ellis, they are hosts of the hilarious No Dribble podcast, which is like listening into a conversation on the sidelines of a netball game - where they talk about all things life, friendship, family, wine and netball. In this conversation we hear all about Cath and Carolyn’s friendship, and how Carolyn made a plan to get to know Cath and LIz because she figured they’d all be friends if they met in real life - and she wasn’t wrong! Cath talks about her long career playing netball, and why she started playing in the first place - which was really all about the friendships, fun and socialising. We chat about her transition from netball into media and commentary and what that’s been like for her. We also hear about Carolyn’s fascinating career story and how at the age of 49, she decided to give stand-up comedy a go. She shares some funny stories about throwing herself in the deep end and the mistakes she made along the way. This conversation really is a funny chat between girlfriends. Everyone shares their funniest plane stories, some memorable moments from the podcast and we also talk about body image and aging - the good news is, it keeps getting better! We had so much fun on the couch this week with Cath and Carolyn and we hope you laugh along as much as we did. This episode is proudly sponsored by Eir Women.

I have a confession to make: I firmly believe insurance agents are prospecting all wrong. And, it is not only costing them thousands of dollars every year in new business commission, but they are losing literal weeks (months?) of their lives in the process. But, I also have some good news as well. The good news is that you can be happier as a producer, more successful, get more hours of your life back, and win more frequently. It all boils down to prospecting the low-hanging fruit. In this throwback episode, I (Charles Specht) will tell you what the low-hanging fruit is and also how you can win it! Key Topics: Introduction of "low-hanging fruit" in insurance sales Analogy of picking ripe figs to explain targeting easy opportunities Importance of using the Broker of Record (BOR) letter in acquiring new clients Techniques for identifying and capitalizing on straightforward sales opportunities Discussion on the mindset needed for low-effort, high-return sales approaches Insights into streamlining the sales process by focusing on ready-to-switch clients Encouragement to refine focus on opportunities with the greatest return and least complication Reach out to Charles Specht Visit: Permission Network Produced by: PodSquad.fm

And a bit of fangirling at the amazing women that ran the Tokyo marathon, including Paula Radcliffe, Helen Thorn – friend of the pod, and Adele Roberts – who, spoiler alert, will be our April cover star.Bloody menThen some angry stuff at the end about men weeing in public – we need to know your thoughts.
