This is something that my father Greg Rosenthal taught me and I wanted to share it with you. I hope it helps you like it did for me. If you have any questions on it, then just contact me. My father wrote this story.

Several years ago, I lived in a small residential neighborhood. I would frequently say "hello" to my neighbor across the fence, Mr. Johnson, but I did not really know him, and we seldom spoke to each other.

Work your existing clients

Be sure and work your existing clients each year and keep in touch with them.

Agent's make a big mistake of never contacting the clients again after they sell them.

You don’t sell insurance. You answer questions.

You don't sell insurance. You answer questions.

Most of the clients don't understand insurance and it is your job to explain it to them and answer their questions.

Instead of asking do you need to talk to an agent about buying insurance, ask them if they need to talk to an agent about answering some of their questions about insurance.

I want to ask you something but not buy something. That is what a lot of clients think. If you educate them on insurance and why they need it, then they will buy it. It is that simple.

From salary to commission base

Hello all,
I'm currently with Allstate on a paid salary the last 2 years. I'm thinking about leaving and going 100% commission base and I need some feedback on the split percentage I should look for. Will someone let me if this is a fair.

10% commission of the policy is split 70/30 between myself and the broker for all lines. Should I be asking for something different for personal and life?
