In this episode we meet our friend Derek. From selling Aflac insurance to building a massive mobile home park portfolio! we learn about his struggles, vices and triumphs. Let's listen in!Tunes by artist: 7&Nine

After quitting his job at a car dealership, Brian Celestine got his insurance license and never looked back. He went on to become one of the top insurance agents in the country despite not using leads and working mostly on referrals. In this interview we talk about his transition into the insurance industry, why he chose insurance, and how new agents can be successful at the beginning of their careers.

Our feelings and experiences are the primary reason we have challenges Cross-Selling Insurance Policies at Renewal. We are afraid of a NO, of upsetting the customer, and we often assume that the client is in a hurry. Maybe a client has gotten upset over price, so we think now is not the time to ask for more. More often than not, we decide how the client will respond by answering the question in our head, not by asking the client the question. That means - we are having the conversation with the wrong person! We need to engage the client to get cross-selling going. In the APP Agency Retention Program we also talk about how you are often more worried about price or changes to their policy than the consumer. We want to help remove some of the fears of cross-selling and give you the confidence to “Just Ask”!  Read more in this week's Insurance agency blog: https://www.agencyperformancepartners.com/blog/how-to-cross-sell-insurance-at-renewal/

Welcome to Episode 145 of Building My Legacy.In this podcast, we talk with insurance broker David Duford, the founder and CEO of DavidDuford.com, a virtual insurance agency helping new and experienced agents become top producers. David shares with us information about a topic none of like to discuss: “final expense” or burial insurance.He has identified a specific target market for this product — average Americans who have worked hard their entire lives, may have even planned for their retirement, but haven’t been able to protect their spouse or children against the funeral expenses they’ll eventually face. If you have hourly workers in this situation, David has an option that allows you to offer a “value-added” benefit to them at no cost to you. As we all face the need to manage salary and benefit costs yet still attract employees, David’s message is valuable for owners of businesses of all sizes.So if you want to know:– Why employer-provided group life insurance typically doesn’t help retirees– How Simplified Issue Insurance policies can help workers planning for retirement– How a Voluntary Payroll Deduct Plan can be an affordable option for employees — at no cost to employers– Who shouldn’t consider final expense insurance– The best time to arrange for any kind of insurance — particularly life insurance About David DufordDavid Duford who owns DavidDuford.com, a virtual insurance agency, has written three best-selling insurance sales and marketing books: The Official Guide to Selling Insurance for New Agents, The Official Guide to Selling Final Expense Insurance and Interviews with Top Producing Insurance Agents.

Welcome to Episode 145 of Building My Legacy.In this podcast, we talk with insurance broker David Duford, the founder and CEO of DavidDuford.com, a virtual insurance agency helping new and experienced agents become top producers. David shares with us information about a topic none of like to discuss: “final expense” or burial insurance.He has identified a specific target market for this product — average Americans who have worked hard their entire lives, may have even planned for their retirement, but haven’t been able to protect their spouse or children against the funeral expenses they’ll eventually face. If you have hourly workers in this situation, David has an option that allows you to offer a “value-added” benefit to them at no cost to you. As we all face the need to manage salary and benefit costs yet still attract employees, David’s message is valuable for owners of businesses of all sizes.So if you want to know:– Why employer-provided group life insurance typically doesn’t help retirees– How Simplified Issue Insurance policies can help workers planning for retirement– How a Voluntary Payroll Deduct Plan can be an affordable option for employees — at no cost to employers– Who shouldn’t consider final expense insurance– The best time to arrange for any kind of insurance — particularly life insurance About David DufordDavid Duford who owns DavidDuford.com, a virtual insurance agency, has written three best-selling insurance sales and marketing books: The Official Guide to Selling Insurance for New Agents, The Official Guide to Selling Final Expense Insurance and Interviews with Top Producing Insurance Agents.

The Great Gildersleeve (1941-1957), initially written by Leonard Lewis Levinson, was one of broadcast history's earliest spin-off programs. Built around Throckmorton P. Gildersleeve, a character who had been a staple on the classic radio situation comedy Fibber McGee and Molly, The Great Gildersleeve enjoyed its greatest success in the 1940s. Actor Harold Peary played the character during its transition from the parent show into the spin-off and later in a quartet of feature films released at the height of the show's popularity. On Fibber McGee and Molly, Peary's Gildersleeve was a pompous windbag who became a consistent McGee nemesis. "You're a haa-aa-aa-aard man, McGee!" became a Gildersleeve catch phrase. The character was given several conflicting first names on Fibber McGee and Molly, and on one episode his middle name was revealed as Philharmonic. Gildy admits as much at the end of "Gildersleeve's Diary" on the Fibber McGee and Molly series (10/22/40). He soon became so popular that Kraft Foods - looking primarily to promote its Parkay margarine spread - sponsored a new series with Peary's Gildersleeve as the central, slightly softened, and slightly befuddled focus of a lively new family. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/daniel-lantz/message

I just couldn’t do it without them. You know Siller labs in scope you’ve heard me talk about it a ton of times because I’ve used them so many times. The beauty is you know you have a product you want to put the right keywords because it’s all about keywords right when you know that the key word is what people are searching for.
