Simple Intro Script (Auto/Home)
- "Hey Mom/Dad/Cousin, want to save money on car insurance?"
- Give them the 800-number, your last name and rep code.
- Follow-up next day: “Did you make the call?” – persistence required.
- If savings not found: remind them to retry in 6 mo.
Cross-Sell: Will, Living Trust & PLPP
- After insurance quote ask: “Do you have a will or living trust?”
- High probability of "No" (esp. married, kids, homeowners).
- Offer Pre-Paid Legal Protection Plan (PLPP) as affordable solution.
- Workflow:
- Go to Products ➜ “Other Product” ➜ PLPP.
- Download “Will Questionnaire” (English PDF).
- Help client fill items #19–20 (asset list) using bank/mutual-fund statements.
- Opportunity: Identifying cash earning ≈2 % and upselling higher-yield investments.
Financial Needs & Asset Discovery
- Statements reveal low-yield money – transition to Primerica investments.
- Trainer demonstrates how to move funds from 2 % to higher rates.
- Observation → Duplication: watch trainer, become trainer.
Trainer Path & Fast-Start Philosophy
- Pass Life & Securities, BUT run appointments simultaneously.
- Goal: ≥10 appointments/month, watch & learn.
- Chain-of-Representation transfers clients to you once licensed.
- Long-term vision: build competent trainers, duplicate Mario/Barragán system (16 k licenses in one year).
Warm vs Cold Market Prospecting
Warm Market (Friends/Family)
- Use e-T-H-O-R framework:
• Excited
• Training
• Help
• Opinion
• Referral - Sample call to Mr. Queen:
"Uncle, I need your help. I’m in training and value your opinion. Could we meet Wed @ 6 pm or Thu @ 8 pm with my trainer?"
– Book spouse present; give two date/time options.
Business Opportunity Script (Peers)
- “Christian, are you keeping your income options open?”
- Invite to Opportunity Meeting / Zoom; stress partnership & credibility (“I wouldn’t join if it wasn’t good”).
- Indirect cold-market approach in public: “We’re expanding, know anyone wanting extra income?” ➜ Exchange numbers ➜ Set interview.
- Embrace “No”; one or two “Yes” scale business.
CRM Usage
- POL ➜ CRM ➜ “Last Contact” to enter all ~100 phone contacts.
- Enter email + mobile to trigger automated campaigns:
• Referral
• Birthday
• Opportunity - System sends emails/texts; prospects reply; you schedule Zoom/in-person.
Ethical / Urgency Stories
- Friend delayed, prospect shot by stray bullet → family left unprotected.
- Sister’s death claim delivered at 54 – reinforces mission.
- Moral: procrastination hurts families; duty to protect NOW.
Life Insurance Quoting (TurboApps)
- POL ➜ TurboApps ➜ “Quotes”.
- Enter height, weight, DOB, tobacco status.
- Product types:
• Power Term = Non-medical
• Precision Term = Medical (cheaper if labs passed). - Coverage guideline:
\text{Death Benefit}=\text{Annual Income}\times8\text{–}10 - Rider: Waiver of Premium (if disabled, premiums waived).
- Quote example (Age 49, female, $10 k/mo income):
• 35-yr term, $1.2 M ➜ \$385\,/\text{mo}
• 20-yr term lowers to \$183\,/\text{mo}. - Use “Payment Table” for incremental face amounts.
- Print quote (omit agent comp). Include contact info.
Compensation Math – Life, Auto/Home, Securities
Life Insurance
- Advance: 75 % of 1st-yr commission fronted (must stay 13 mo to avoid charge-back).
- Hierarchy example (face $1 M @ $183.76/mo):
• Annualized premium: 183.76\times12=\$2{,}205.
• At Rep code: \approx\$154 per policy.
• Promotion doubles pay: District Leader (3×3) earns \approx\$308.
Auto & Home
- Referral check ≈\$100 per switch.
5{,}000\$\ goal\; /\;200\$ = 25\;switches to hit \$5 k.
Securities (after licenses)
- Dealer allowance (example) 5\,%.
- District Leader grid = 35 %.
- Payout formula:
\text{Commission}=\text{Investment}\times0.05\times0.35 - Example: 1{,}000{,}000\times0.05\times0.35=\$17{,}500 on one rollover (1.75 %).

- Fingerprinting (prerequisite).
- Life/Health – already in progress.
