IMHO most prospects would shove you out the door----unless their brain dead.

Wouldn't it be "they're"? Do we need remedial work on to, too and two?

Wow, 30 to 45 minutes warm up! IMHO most prospects would shove you out the door----unless their brain dead.
I'm a little surprised this one went over your head. My whole presentation has the flavor of the warm up.
In other words there's no pressure to buy anything during my 1st 10-20 min. of the presentation (that's what most people call their warm up).
And there's also no pressure to buy anything during the presentation (which is a continuation of the warm up for me) but for you and a lot of others is where they start to try to sell Ms. Jones something.
I don't want to sell Ms. Jones...I want Ms. Jones to buy. There is a difference.
Of course if all the above does not bear fruit for me then I will start turning up the closing temp. till Ms./Mr. Jones buy or ask me to leave.
And you're correct, I try not to appear to be SELLING insurance. I try to appear as having a CONVERSATION about insurance.
so in addition to selling over priced final expense products, you waste someone's time for 30 minutes about how Senior Life is over priced, and doesn't have an AM BEST rating??? no wonder your production numbers are so low...30 minute warmup? wow
I do, JD. Not always, but with regularity.
No way. Not a 45 minute warm up without getting into a presentation at all.
Senior Life is over priced, and doesn't have an AM BEST rating???

Occasionally that happens, not always.
My first appointment and I talked for about 30-40 minutes before getting into the nuts and bolts of the presentation.
My second appointment yesterday... the warm-up lasted like 4 minutes.
My third appointment the warm-up lasted around 50 seconds.
It just depends. All I know is that people would rather buy from friends they trust rather than strangers. So I do whatever it takes to get to that level.
For those of us around long enough, this reminds me of Executive Life of Los Angeles in 1991.
They paid for an "A+" rating from A.M. Best - right up to the day they were seized by the Department of Insurance.
