MIND SET. You're either strong in the area of confidence and mindset, or you're a weak little puppy. Which one is it? Insurance agents who lack confidence tend to write fewer new accounts each year, they write smaller accounts, and they don't win many (any?) signed Broker of Record Letters. The opposite is also 100% true: Insurance producers who are confident and in the right frame of mind set mor...

You get out what you put in. You win championships when you do the good work. You reap what you sow. These are the realities of what happens to people (and teams) who do the right things over and over again. Success comes to those who do the right work and stay consistent. Last time I checked, none of your insurance carriers pay any "consolation commission" when you come in 2nd place. It's all or...

Cold Calling is never much fun, but it can become your pot of gold at the end of a rainbow if you can figure out the proper Script and get your delivery of the Script down pat with both enthusiasm and confidence. Most insurance agents have a lame, tired, and worn-out Script that makes them sound like every other agent out there. Don't be that agent! In this throwback episode of the Millionaire Ins...

You know, if a producer doesn't get to $100,000 of commission in a reasonable amount of time, they often either get fired or they find a new job outside of insurance. So, we not only need to help them get to $100,000 of commission but I think -- more importantly -- we need to get them to a $250,000 commission Book of Business as soon as humanly possible. Why? Because, once a producer gets to $250,...

I have a confession to make: I firmly believe insurance agents are prospecting all wrong. And, it is not only costing them thousands of dollars every year in new business commission, but they are losing literal weeks (months?) of their lives in the process. But, I also have some good news as well. The good news is that you can be happier as a producer, more successful, get more hours of your life...

Have you ever been rejected when doing your prospecting? Of course you have. Probably thousands of times in your life so far. It comes with the territory. But putting in the work helps you find your people. Getting hundreds of "No's" helps you find the dozens who say, "Yes!"  In this episode of the Millionaire Insurance Producer podcast host Charles Specht explains how to embrace the rejecting hat...

There are THREE things that if insurance producers did, they would have far more success at prospecting and selling insurance. What are these THREE things you might ask? Well, that's what podcast host Charles Specht will teach you in today's episode on building a $1,000,000 or more Book of Business. Also... The next cohort of PERMISSION PRODUCER SCHOOL starts on March 3, 2025 and goes through to M...

Going for the BOR is always the better option, but sometimes you just have to quote. If you go through a normal quoting process, be sure to get these three (3) things from the prospect. Once you do this, your quote-to-win ratio will increase so much that you could see your new business revenue increase by some 50% annually. That's a lot of commission. It's YOUR new business commission! But only if...

Have you ever gone through a season of prospecting where you weren't actually prospecting? You were doing -- I don't, know, whatever -- but just not a lot of reaching out to prospects? Yes, I think we all have experienced that from time to time. Today I had a coaching call with a new producer who has been in the business for about 8 months ... and I had to light him up! He's being lazy, reactive,...

Insurance agents who struggle at setting new business appointments with prospects, or winning signed Broker of Record Letters, or winning through a quoting process, are typically agents that don't have a Competitive Differentiation that makes the prospect say, "Wow!" In other words, if you don't have anything -- either a tangible service or a unique process -- that separates you from other competi...

(First, go check out www.microniche.club to see what this is all about) - Do you feel like you're struggling setting enough new business appointments or not winning enough new clients? If that's the case for you, I would say it's likely due to a lack of focus in a narrowly defined Micro-Niche. Most producers struggle or don't make the kind of income they want or know they're capable of making beca...

Are you happy with your current status quo or are you satisfied with mediocrity? No doubt, you're not. If not, are you doing anything significant to level-up your revenues, or write larger accounts, or close more new business? I hope you are! In this throwback episode of the Millionaire Insurance Producer podcast, host Charles Specht will help you to see what leveling-up would look like for you an...

Would you like to win more signed Broker of Letters from your prospects but you're not exactly sure how the process works? Would you appreciate it if someone gave you a step-by-step, repeatable process that would help you win more signatures? Well, then it's a good thing you're listening to today's throwback episode because host Charles Specht is going to breakdown ten (10) steps to winning more s...

If you can do this one thing, you'll not only win more signed Broker of Record Letters but you'll save yourself a ton of time, headaches, stress, and you'll make a lot more money too. What is it? Here it is: "Show me the money, Jerry!" See, you need to become an insurance agent who is more like Jerry Maguire the sports agent, rather than "Joe Quotes" who offers quotes to non-clients. What I mean i...

No doubt you were hired to sell insurance. But did your agency leadership make you FIRST prove that you can prospect to set appointments? I would suspect probably not. And, that's why so many insurance producers fail and don't make it -- or at least why they don't make enough money. They are good at relationship building and closing business, but they just can't set enough appointments. In this ep...

If you have not yet CLEARLY DEFINED what your ideal client both is and is not then you're probably making only $0.50 on the $1 of what you could be earning. That's right. Not clearly defining your ideal client is costing you money -- a lot of money! You not only need to know what you will say "Yes!" to but also what you will say "No!" to in order to enjoy million-dollar success.  In this throwback...

How would you like to have a $2,500,000 Book of Business (commission)? Sure, we all would. Well, that's what my client--Guffy Wright--from The Mahoney Group was able to accomplish in less than five years after working with me for 1-on-1 coaching! If you're a P&C or EB producer struggling with Micro-Niche selection, differentiation, leveling-up, mindset issues, limiting beliefs, or not getting enou...

Are you a P&C or EB producer who is struggling to set enough new business appointments? Or, maybe you're just not able to close and win enough clients? Do you have too much pressure on you to succeed and you need to start delivering some positive results -- ASAP? If that at all describes where you're at right now then stay tuned because, in this throwback episode of the Millionaire Insurance Produ...

Do you struggle at branding? Are you still a quasi-generalist who is not focused in a Micro-Niche? Or, maybe you've chosen a Micro-Niche industry to focus on, but you haven't figured out how to BRAND yourself so that your prospects are attracted to you and want to sign over their insurance to you? Well, I have good news for you if that describes where you're at right now.  In this throwback episod...

Check out: https://permissiongroup.com/permission-producer-school/ Imagine setting twice as many new business appointments with your prospects, tripling your win percentage, writing more accounts, writing larger-revenue generating accounts, and winning most (all?) of these new clients by signed Broker of Record Letter, rather than going through a normal quoting process. Sound to good to be true? W...

Asking for the signed BOR is part science and part art. And, timing is everything! You need to be careful to not ask too soon and also to not waiver on the fence of indecision by never getting around to popping the actual question. In this episode of the Millionaire Insurance Producer podcast, host Charles Specht will teach you how to ask for the signed Broker of Record Letter at just the right ti...

Do you struggle with setting appointment and writing new business? Many agents do. Actually, most do. Why is that? Well, for one thing, most agents don't know where to begin. In other words, they haven't even decided what to prospect, let alone why they should focus on that. They are "generalists" and have a Jack-of-all-trades mindset. Does that describe you? If it does, then this podcast episode...

MIND SET. You're either strong in the area of confidence and mindset, or you're a weak little puppy. Which one is it? Insurance agents who lack confidence tend to write fewer new accounts each year, they write smaller accounts, and they don't win many (any?) signed Broker of Record Letters. The opposite is also 100% true: Insurance producers who are confident and in the right frame of mind set mor...

Check out --> www.permissionproducerschool.com Congratulations! You got hired at your agency. You're now an insurance producer. Ummm, what comes next? Well, that's the dirty little secret of most insurance agencies around the USA and Canada.
