TELESALES BOOTCAMP

Before beginning this bootcamp, please know that all the fluff and everything extra that you don't need to get started has been left out. It is important that you do not get lazy or skips steps for convenience. Choosing which parts to follow and which ones to skip over will only result in wasted time. Trust that if you are 100% coachable and follow these simple steps, you will be fully setup for success. Even if you have experience in sales or with other platforms, treat this as if you are starting from scratch. Yes there are other good scripts and fancy tech stuff you can get, but this system is designed to train the new agent in a week to do the job confidently as someone who has years of experience WITHOUT learning all the underwriting and products upfront. It does everything for you. The most important thing to have right now is FOCUS. It's easy to get distracted by every top producer's script, high tech dialers or things that may seem like shortcuts. Fully dedicate yourself to this system for 3 months and you will see a change in your business and most importantly, you will have a complete copy and paste system to hand over to your team. This bootcamp was made with a genuine desire to help everyone avoid the common pitfalls and be able to tap into their fullest potential in this industry. It has helped many agents achieve massive results and it will help YOU if you are willing to put in the work.

1. SCRIPT TRAINING

1A. DOWNLOAD / PRINT / PRACTICE THE SCRIPT

Learning the script is the ONLY and most important work that you must do at this point. NOTHING ELSE. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO LEARN ABOUT THE PRODUCTS OR WATCH ANY OTHER TRAINING VIDEOS YET. After sufficient practice, contact your mentor to rehearse and check your progress. You may print a PDF copy of the script or you may use the E-Scripts. E-Script is Recommended as it will be easier to transition through each step. Using the E-Script, select "AMERICO LEVEL" when you reach paragraph step 12C.​

1B. LISTEN TO THE SCRIPT  & REHEARSE BY SECTIONS

Once you have the Script Printed, practice and rehearse each section. Make sure that you're able to read the script in a decent tone before moving the next section. You may download the Loom App to play each part on your phone for easier retention.​

3. DIAL DAY SETUP

This step is to be done BEFORE your first dial day. This will make sure that you are fully setup and ready to make dials without having to spend hours during dial day catching up. Poor preparation shows a lack of respect for your trainer's time. Follow each step, step by step and you will be able to maximize your dial day training.

A. DOWNLOAD CARRIER CODES / LOGIN INFO FORM

Keep a look out for your carrier codes that you will personally receive via email. You will receive an individual carrier code from each carrier that you are contracted with. Before you begin to set your passcode / account in each individual portal, download and print the carrier codes and login information form and have it present. This document was created to record all of your portal passwords, agent codes and license information for future reference.

 

IMPORTANT - As you setup your portals online, make sure that you select to save and store passwords and usernames for those portals so that you don’t have to manually input them when logging in to submit an Eapp.

B. DOWNLOAD / PRINT THE DAILY SUCCESS PLAN

WE WILL USE THIS TO STRUCTURE / SCHEDULE OUR DIAL DAYS AND TO KEEP TRACK OF OUR ACTIVITY.

C. DOWNLOAD / PRINT TELESALES INTAKE FORM

WE WILL USE THIS FORM DURING THE SCRIPT TO RECORD ALL VITAL INFORMATION FROM THE CLIENT TO COMPLETE THE EAPP. If the client is denied on the initial application, the Telesales Intake Form tool will provide all needed information to complete another application without subjecting the client to another lengthy set of questions that will cause them to lose interest.

D. DOWNLOAD / PRINT THE PRODUCTION LOG

We will use this form to record all sales made for the month so that you can keep track of your business and follow up with your clients for future reference. This digital version can be saved on your Ipad/Laptop so that you can fill it out and update it using Microsoft word.

E. CREATE THE CLIENT SATISFACTION SURVEY FORM

WE WILL USE THIS TOOL AFTER THE SALE IS MADE TO GATHER FEEDBACK AND REFERRALS FROM THE CLIENT. You will need to create a gmail to create this free tool.

 

FIRST, WATCH HOW TO CREATE AND USE SURVEY USING GOOGLE FORMS

AFTER WATCHING THE VIDEO, go to your google forms tab to create a new form.

 

NEXT, CLICK HERE to open a finished version of the form so that you can simply copy and paste from an existing form onto your blank one. FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS ON VIDEO.

 

​OR, If you would like your own AGENT WEBSITE for marketing your services, establishing credibility over the phone, quoting and gathering referrals, CLICK HERE to order your personal agent website.

F. DOWNLOAD MICROSOFT 365

WE WILL USE THIS FOR IMPORTING / ORGANIZING OUR LEADS AND TO COMPLETE THE CLIENT'S POLICY SUMMARY AFTER A SALE. Microsoft 365 is a combo subscription that includes Word, Excel and Power Point. A 30 day free trial is available.

​

THIS TOOL IS NEEDED. DO NOT RELY ON GOOGLE SHEETS OR GOOGLE DOCS.

G. LEADS SETUP

On dial day, ask your upline which lead source they recommend and they will guide you through the process of buying your first batch. As a new agent, you can also ask your upline or team members for leads so that you can get sufficient practice while you build your lead funds. Once you can invest into leads, it is recommended that you get Final Expense leads as they come in faster, in bulk, much lower in cost, much simpler to work with, and you get paid faster than with any other product type. Also, stay away from high cost CRM's as your only focus should be on dialing, not learning tech stuff. We will use Microsoft Excel to manage our leads.

​​

4. DIAL DAY INSTRUCTIONS

POST SALE

INSTRUCTIONS FOR TRAINERS:

  • For the first 5 sales, our job as trainers is to handle Insurance Toolkits, underwriting and quoting for the new agent so that their only job is to successfully go through a full script presentation and application. After their 5th sale, they will learn how to go through the script and use Insurance Toolkits simultaneously themselves.

  • Before the new agent starts their dial session, make sure that they have the Telesales Portal up, a daily success plan, telesales intake form, headset, mouse and their laptop or device ready to write applications with the proper bookmarks in place.

  • As the new agent is dialing, be nearby to help them and when they reach paragraph 3 on the script, stop what you are doing so that you can be ready to put the medical information into Insurance Toolkits as the new agent writes it down on the Telesales Intake Form. Once you find the carrier based on the medical information, the new agent will go to the Carrier Product Info Page and read the Telesales Template for the Carrier / Plan. As they are doing this, you are going to get three quotes from highest to lowest using Insurance Tookits so that by the time the new agent is done explaining the product and building the value, they can have the rates ready to present options to the client and close.

  • When a sale is being made, the trainer and the trainee will split commissions in the application. 75% to the Trainee, 25% to the Trainer. If leads are provided to the trainee by the trainer, the new agent will split 50% to themself and 50% to the Trainer on the Eapp.

​​

​

INSTRUCTIONS FOR NEW AGENTS:

  1. Set schedule and times for your dial sessions on your Dialy Success Plan. Each dial session is to be set for a 2 1/2 hour period. Aim to have at least two dial sessions per day, preferably three.

  2. Get 75 leads ready on Microsoft Excel and have the Telesales Intake Form, The  Money Script and Daily Success Plan on hand. Have Insurance Toolkits and the website Carrier Product Info page ready for use.

  3. Dial the first lead. If they don't answer, immediately call them back a second time. If they do not answer the second time, immediately call them back a third time. If they do not answer the third time, move on to the next lead. Repeat this for each lead until all leads have been triple dialed.

  4. Leads that have wrong numbers or have been disconnected, highlight as light blue. Leads that hang up or not interested, put the date contacted in notes section and highlight as red. Leads that are follow ups, put the date contacted and notes in the notes section and highlight as yellow. Leads that are converted to sales, highlight as green. Leads that did not answer, leave as is.

  5. At the end of the first dial session, go back to the first lead and repeat steps 2 and 3 for the leads that have not answered yet.

  6. Repeat for each dial session.

  7. Periodically save your lead file so that your highlights and notes are not lost. Save the lead file as County & Date Originally Downloaded. For example, save as 'Kern 3-20-23.

​

AFTER THE SALE​

8. When you make a sale, document your sale on your Monthly Production Log (Step 3D). NEXT, create and send the client their Policy Summary and the Client Satisfaction Survey within 24 hours.

  • To create your client's Policy Summary, go to the "AGENT PORTAL" page, find the carrier and product you placed the client with and click the "POLICY SUMMARY" button to populate the summary. Once the template is populated, download it if it did not automatically download. When you open it in Microsoft Word, click "ENABLE EDITING"  if prompted.

  • Using the information that you recorded on the Intake Form, fill out the summary with your client's info, and save the summary as a PDF into a "Policy Summaries" (Create this folder for future policies) folder labeling it as "[Full name of Client] Policy Summary".

  • When emailing your client, attach the client's Policy Summary PDF, and in the word section write, "Hi [Client's Name], congratulations on your policy approval. Attached is your Policy Summary that includes the details of your policy, my full contact information, and the contact information of the insurance company as well. Please forward this email to [Beneficiary's Name] as soon as possible so that they know who to contact in the event that something happens. Your official policy packet will arrive in the mail within 7 to 14 business days. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact me anytime. If you are satisfied with my service, please leave me a review in the following link by clicking on the link "[Insert Link]". I will talk with you soon. Have a great rest of your day [Client's Name]."

  • If you choose to do so, you may send the Client Survey via Text immediately after you get off the phone with the client, and again through email if no survey was completed.
