Best Practices for Walmart during AEP?

I meant 49 for both years. Wrote only one PDP for 2019 plan year but wrote a ton for 2020 plan year mostly due to the changes Humana made to their PDP's and also the Wellcare purchase of the Aetna PDP business. Call it 25 MAPD/Med Sup per year and 8ish PDP per year on average

Got it, that's what I wanted to know

How many of you do this, and what works best for you to be successful?

Long, long a ago in a galaxy far, far away... I used market in Walmarts and Sams. Simple little bit of advice... learn to smile well when you greet people. Warm them up before you ever give them your name.

People always like to meet people who are nice to kids... they are watching you!

Ten years ago I did Grocery store--didnt do very well but it seems to maybe be more popular now

And with "Seminars" maybe being nixed due to Covid wonder if it might be worth a try?

For agents that are just getting started and have more time than money, booths in pharmacies can be a good way to generate business. I did a pharmacy booth one year, I mainly saw it as time to get caught up on paperwork and organize my leads, and if I happened to have someone come up to chat that was a bonus. Ended up generating about 10 policies or so from maybe 5 hours a week of time I would have already spent doing paperwork anyways.

Personally, I would rather watch paint dry than do a pharmacy again, but again, if you have more time than money it can be a great way to generate cheap business and can be productive.
