Appointment Setting Using Mailers

John, we are all important in this forum (I'm sure you knew that, thus your comment--lol.). Don't think Insurance Forums doesn't like all this hoopla going on. The more involvement, the happier they are, and the more money they make.
Shizzle, if Boman and Gooner are so important (All due respect to you guys.), then why have you had 20 posts in this thread alone? If they are so important, then you step out and let them do all the talking.
CJR, does it matter what I have been told? Evidently not, because it doesn't matter what the reference point is. Jdeasy responded to my question in post #43 with the fact he has very few no-shows. He also does not see 70% as being outstanding, as per post #45 .Even though I'm one of the new guys in this thread (Not the industry.), I can tell by his posts he knows what he is talking about. I wanted to pick his brain, as well as anyone else how their show rate is so high.
I'm doing very well in this business, but if my show rate can be raised from the current 30% to the 60-70%, then again, I'm all ears.
So, if someone wants to take time to give me ideas to increase that percentage, then let's talk. You would think a forum like this would be for a mutual benefit, not misconceptual, idle rhetoric.

15 x 30% = 4.5 x $58 = $261 x 12 = $3,152 x 52 = $163,904.

He also gets multiple sales off leads and lots of referrals to make up the difference.



True but those go into the numbers. What I've said is that average to good agents close 20% of their leads. Really good agents close around 25% and the very best close 30%+ of the leads.

On 20 leads that's 4, 5 and 6 applications.

EFES only had 2 agents that averaged over 40%. I was one of them.

I don't track that stuff and was only able to track it with EFES because they track it. I do know I'm over that now because I do the same number of applications per year and I get less leads now. What the exact figure is I don't know.

You better set aside a couple of hours.

You might be able to recruit Boman to be under you.
 
Golllini, go back to posts # 43 and 45.
My query was how it was that out of all leads received that he makes appointments with circa 70%. My number is not close to that. I wanted to find out from people that are doing that how it is that high (By comparison to mine.) .
Personally, once I'm doing the presentation, my percentage is close to 100%. I know someone said that 1 out of 5 are doubles for him. My average of doubles that I see is closer to 2 of 5. So in deriving the 100%, my doubles sold equals the amount of no-sells.
That 30% is a good percentage. I close about 23% of my leads.
I might be 58, but I admit, I don't know it all. I'm always willing to learn new tricks.

I don't buy leads, but I think you're getting your #'s mixed up. Try it another way. I'm pretty sure that I've seen JD say that he sells 30% of his leads and that that is a very high %.

KRobby, if my show rate doubles ,then I will be doing double the presentations. The % of closes is still relative. My close rate will not drop if I am doubling my presentations.
In that way, that is my goal. Run the same amount of leads by double my presentations. Then my income will double for the same amount of work.


That's great but you'll no longer be closing 100+% of your appointments.

:idea:

Boman, by the numbers you present, you are better than me, so you sure don't need me recruiting you. Plus, I made it clear, there is not a chance I came in here to recruit anyone.


Haha doubtful on both responses.

You'll be doing the same thing, but in front of a greater percentage of non-buyers. I thought you said you hand a good handle on the maths.
