Overview of the Training Message
- Speaker: Primerica leader from Springville, Utah

- Increase client value (cheaper coverage, found money)
- Increase agent earnings
- Create a strong recruiting story

Recruiting & Income Potential
- Core recruiting message: “Replace or dwarf a typical hourly wage job.”
- Typical part-time job pays 13−15 dollars per hour
- Worker must put in 13−15 hours to make the same money an A&H agent can generate in one sale
- Illustration used on recruiting appointments:
- One Auto & Home sale per day × 30 days → monthly income of 5,850
- Framing: “That’s more than a full-time 15-hour job—without the clock-punching.”
- Psychological lever: Agents go from incremental hourly thinking to value-creation thinking (solution selling)
Structuring the Client Call
- Common failure: Client hears they can save 20, 50, even 100 per month but doesn’t act
- Speaker labels this “makes no sense at all” → indicates a framing error by the agent, not client irrationality
- Fix = Front-end positioning
- Begin call reminding client of their overall financial goals (debt-free, retire early, college funding, etc.)
- Explain that any dollars found through cheaper Auto & Home will be re-deployed to those goals, not “disappear” into discretionary spending
- Re-cap at close so client sees immediate action + long-term plan
Leveraging the Found Money
- Speaker’s two flagship uses for the savings:
- Life Insurance upgrade (buy the needed face-amount w/out increasing total household out-flow)
- Retirement investing (Primerica’s mutual funds, IRAs, etc.)
- Key teaching: “Every saved premium dollar is a potential wealth-building dollar.”
CRM & Automated Campaigns
- Primerica’s Client Relationship Manager (CRM) has a pre-built Auto & Home Campaign
- Agent toggles the campaign “on,” automated emails/texts go to prospects & existing clients
- Results cited: Clients reply that “it’s time to meet back up,” leading to
- Updated Financial Needs Analysis / “game plan”
- Discovery of additional budget slippage that can be redirected
- Fresh recruiting conversations (client → new representative)
Implementation Checklist (Primerica Secure)
- Log in to Primerica Online (POL)
- Navigate:
Products → Primerica Secure - Download & read state guidelines, carrier list, compensation grid
- Complete any mandatory online certification modules
- Turn on CRM A&H campaign; load existing book of business
- Practice the “front-end framing” script so every quote = built-in cross-sell & referral opportunity
Ethical & Practical Considerations
- Always compare like-for-like coverage (avoid underinsuring merely to show savings)
- Document how found money is being redirected (fiduciary mindset)
- Recruiting promise must be backed by real coaching; income examples are illustrative, not guaranteed
- Maintain compliance: Follow each state’s DOI rules for property & casualty solicitation
- Typical part-time wage: 13–15 dollars/hour
- One A&H sale per day for 30 days → 5,850 dollars/month (approx.)
- Example premium savings offered to client: 20–100 dollars/month
- Savings Re-deployment Equation: \text{New Contribution} = \text{Old Contribution} + \text{A&H Savings}
