A sales slump is an indication that something has changed. And in many cases when referrals go down and sales drop off, it is usually a result of a series of small changes the agent has unknowingly made in his/her presentation.

and a success starting point in event of a sales slump.

By doing so, we have created an ongoing success starting point for that life insurance agent if s/he starts having a sales slump. Doing role playing with a new agent, or with me will also help the agent get stronger.

What happens more often than not, is almost every agent starts to do minor subliminal changes to their presentation because of new schools they attended, or on information they may have read.

When an agent started to have some closing problems, I would  ask  "Did you change your sales presentation in any significant way?"

And in every instance "They would say, "well I may have added one or two small changes in the past several months."

At that time I would then set up a one on one office meeting so that we could sit down and review what he currently was doing by having him give me his current presentation, then we would listen to his taped presentation when things were going well.

So, if you are wanting to protect or improve your most important asset which is your sales presentation, take the time to sit down and tape your presentation when it is going good. Use these Insurance selling tips to help you grow in the insurance sales profession.
