This month, we're talking about business planning! Our June 2018 sales kit is designed to help you reach out to business owners and help them plan for a range of events, including retirement and disability.
If you're like a lot of agents, you're not as familiar with business planning as you are with individual and family needs planning. We're here to help. In this month's sales kit, you'll find material that will help orient you - and your client - for a discussion. The kit begins with a comparison of business entities, from sole proprietorship to a limited liability company. Other good reference materials include a comparison of insurance strategies for small business owners.
What’s in the Kit
In this month's kit, we have 68 pages of resources to help you approach clients about business succession planning and insurance solutions. Topics covered range from life insurance as a bonding asset to a deep-drive on buy-sell agreements.
Our FREE 68-page kit includes:
- 5 pages of summaries and comparisons of business entities, needs, and insurance strategies
- 1-page sample consumer letter
- 8-page fact-finder
- 4-page guide to life insurance as a bonding asset
- 18-page producer guide for buy-sell agreements
- 20 pages of guides & sales ideas on buy-sell agreements, including cross-purchase, entity purchase, wait-and-see, and one-way
- 10 pages of guides & sales ideas on key person insurance
How to Use This Month’s Sales Kit
The first step is to identify the business owners among your current book of business. You may want to start by emailing or calling them and conducting a brief survey. If you don't know what kinds of business needs they have, it may be easier to ask than to offer services they don't need or want.
Once you've selected the appropriate clients and have an idea of their needs, use the sample client approach letter in the kit to reach out. It lists examples of common challenges business owners face. You can always replace these examples with specific ones you discovered in your survey. The goal is to get an appointment where you can go over these concerns with them and learn even more about how they've prepared for retirement, disability, and more. The fact-finders in the kit will help you there, too.
