The Sales Guide Of The Year

As a collaborator I received a free copy of the book. I knew from interacting with Glenn and Justin on the Insurance Forum that they're both very knowledgeable. I thought the book would be good, but it exceeded my expectations. This book is a road map to success for the new agent...from A-Z. It's also good for the established agent when we need to be reminded of "the basics". It's truly a Guide To Success that every agent should have in their office!

However I was surprised at the amount of well written and easy to understand material in the book about SEO



I bought this book initially for the selling aspects of what I was hoping to learn. It delivered in that area quite well. However I was suprised at the amount of well written and easy to understand material in the book about SEO, content writing, web site and all other aspects of digital marketing. I have been teaching myself digital marketing full time over the past two months. It can be quite overwhelming with the amount of knowledge one needs to learn and it can be complicated as there are many moving and inner connected parts. Reading this book helped put all that I have learned in context of the insurance industry and assisted me in bringing all the pieces together. It saved me weeks of research and likely eliminated errors I would have made without reading this awesome book!

A textbook resource for the FE and MedSup business!

First, I received a free copy of this book in exchange for my honest review. This book is VERY well laid out! If you were to look for a business resource for these lines of insurance business, this would be it. It asks and answers all the questions you would think to ask (and others that might not come to mind) along with helping you to evaluate various business building methods. I like the additional feedback and commentary from other agents that are in the business to show what they do in various situations as well. Bottom line: a great resource that should be in your business library!

5.0 out of 5 starsA Masterclass in Sales

I did receive this book for free. However, the information and education this book provides is invaluable to me as both a businessman and a salesman. The content of this book guides you through an in depth look at each and every facet of the Medicare supplement and final expense process, while also being concise and easy to follow. It is an easy read, which is hard to say for most of the other sales books/literature that is widespread throughout the market. It is evident from the first chapter that the authors and collaborators have an inexhaustible amount of knowledge on both selling to and communicating with the client. An outstanding read that is packed with insight and techniques that can be applied to any sales position.

What a great way to offset the cost of your leads


Have been a life insurance agent for 6 months. Bought this book a month ago and learned more from the book than my upline or online training in that period of time. The real eye opener is how the book outlines how to cross sell final expense and medicare supplements. What a great way to offset the cost of your leads. Very easy to read and understand with host of top agents giving advice in the book on appointment setting and the whole process of final expense and Medicare supplements. I just ordered two more books for two potential appointment setters starting with me in Jan.2018. Glen thanks so much for sharing this valuable info.

A book for the novice or the seasoned veteran

I will start this review by mentioning that I was given a copy to review for free since I was one of the many collaborators used by the authors in the book. With that out of the way I can tell you that I love the book. The book is a guide of the final expense and Medicare supplement sales processes from beginning to end. When I say the beginning I mean the real beginning. Starting with licensing and contracting. The book is organized in such a manner that the reader can concentrate on only final expense or only Medicare supplement or both. Many agents concentrate on only one of these disciplines. But the reader will see there is a lot to offer for the agents that do both by cross selling. I enjoyed the straight talk about the pros and cons on the resources used by the agents. These resources are expensive and you need to weigh the pros and cons before you pull the trigger. I believe the book is an excellent resource for both the novice and the veteran. If you are new to insurance and you are considering selling one or both of these services then the book will give you great insight into all that it takes to be successful. Or if you are like me, an insurance agent that is already selling these services then they will find some priceless nuggets of wisdom shared by the collaborators. I know I did.

Highly RECOMMEND!

This is a GREAT book. I have read every book on Amazon on selling Final Expense. This is the best and one of only 2 I recommend. Glen to seems to be very smart about the business, a good writer, & a great guy. This book persuaded me to get back into the business. I probably will look into using Glens lead company when my license is reinstated & I'm fully contracted.

The best book to help you in insurance sales!

Most “how to”sales books are like cheerleaders, chanting us to win, win, win(sell, sell, sell) “you can make a 6 figures in 6 months” (you can make that touchdown!) but what we really need is a coach to give us play by play instructions on HOW to win. In “How to Qualify, Present & Sell” by Shelton and Biljy they are the coaches in the game of selling FE and Medicare Supps sales. They present the plays to help you win at the game of selling. The other sales books out there do have some things to offer also but it is this book HTQP&S that I consider the bible for selling these types of insurances. Do yourself a favor and buy the book and you will refer to it time and time again! I am looking forward to going to sales appointments and feel confidant with the information I’ve gained from this book! My book below, already dogeared and other book marks and lots of underlining and highlighting....just such great info!

ABOUT THE AUTHORS

Glen

Glen Shelton

After years of working in the retail sales sector, Glen Shelton decided to leave the corporate grind and build a sales-focused business of his own. He became an independent insurance agent, initially selling mortgage protection life insurance before he found his niche selling Final Expense life insurance to seniors.

As an independent insurance agent, Glen noticed a lack of quality and service among telemarketed lead providers in the industry—and saw an opportunity. He launched Lead Heroes in 2015 to provide agents with quality leads and attentive service, specializing in telemarketed Final Expense life insurance and Medicare Supplement leads.

In his role as president of Lead Heroes, Glen actively manages a call center with real people generating quality telemarketed leads at affordable prices. By streamlining his processes to improve efficiency, Glen lowers lead costs for agents while maintaining service and quality, which helps agents maximize their ROI.

Glen is a distinguished Eagle Scout with the Boy Scouts of America. Outside of work, he’s either exploring the coast of Oregon with his wife Jessica, son Remington, and daughter Lucille, or relaxing at home in Portland.

Justin Bilyj

A third-generation insurance agent, Justin Bilyj followed his grandparents, parents, uncle, and brother into the industry. After four years of retail sales experience marked by national sales awards, Justin’s insurance career began in 2006 when he joined the family business.

Justin started his independent insurance agency, My Insurance Counselor, in 2009 to help clients find affordable solutions to life insurance and health insurance. As baby boomers began retiring, Justin noticed a growing need and opportunity within the senior insurance market. He rebranded his company as Buckeye Senior Benefits Agency in 2014 to focus on selling Medicare, long-term care, and life insurance plans to seniors in 6 states.

While marketing these services, Justin discovered a passion for digital marketing, search engine optimization, and online brand management. He teamed up with Bantamedia, a national award-winning content marketing agency, to direct its digital marketing services. Now, while continuing to operate his insurance agency, Justin helps other business owners execute effective online marketing strategies.

Outside of work, Justin enjoys traveling with his fiancé to find the best food, wine, and sights around the country with their three small dogs.

INTERVIEW TOPICS:

  The national demographic crisis causing a talent gap in the insurance industry.

With 10,000 baby boomers retiring every day, record numbers of seniors need help with their life insurance and Medicare Supplement decisions. At the same time, agents are also retiring; one-fourth of the insurance workforce will retire by 2018. In the meantime, 90% of new agents burn out before a full year in insurance sales—leaving a deficit of trained agents who are committed to helping seniors choose the best life insurance and Medicare Supplements.

  The lack of affordable, comprehensive training available in the insurance industry.

While insurance companies may provide generic product training to agents, they don’t often offer practical sales training to teach the skills required in the field. Most agencies reserve their advanced training programs for only the top sales producers, making it tough for new agents to find training initially—without spending thousands to attend conferences.

  The perfect storm of a demographic retirement crisis paired with an industry-wide insurance sales training crisis.

There simply aren’t enough well-trained agents equipped to advise record numbers of retiring seniors on the best health and life insurance plans. The implications of this perfect storm are that unadvised seniors may choose the wrong plan or no plan at all—which could devastate their standard of living or leave an economic burden on the next generation.

  Managing collaboration between 35 insurance agents nationwide.

What really sets this book apart is that it doesn’t just offer one or two opinions about selling Final Expense life insurance and Medicare Supplements. To create this comprehensive guide, two agents partnered together from 2,500 miles apart to coordinate a massive collaboration never seen before in the insurance industry—bringing together more than 35 experienced agents to share real-life examples, scripts, and advice as best practices for other agents.

  The differences between selling Final Expense life insurance and Medicare Supplements.

An age-old debate between agents rages on: which type of insurance is best to sell? The book, “How to Present, Qualify & Sell Final Expense Life Insurance and Medicare Supplements to Seniors” finally bridges the debate by comparing the pros and cons of selling both. Understanding the nuanced differences between selling life insurance or Medigap is key to selling either one successfully, or cross-selling both together.

  The importance of online branding when selling to increasingly tech-savvy seniors.

In this digital age, it’s a mistake to think that seniors aren’t shopping online like other consumers. Studies have shown that every day, 70% of seniors use the internet, 50% check their email, and 42% use smartphones. The way insurance agents market and prospect for business must change as tech-savvy consumers—yes, even seniors—adapt to the times.

SAMPLE INTERVIEW QUESTIONS:

  • Why was this book created, and what problems does it solve?

  • Who is this book written for?

  • What will insurance agents learn by reading this book?

  • What are the differences between selling Final Expense and Medicare Supplements?
