“Sales is solving problems — and you don’t get to do that if you never call them back.” Michael Weaver
What’s in this episode:
In this solo episode, Michael Weaver breaks down the real reason most insurance professionals lose sales — poor follow-up. If you’ve ever sent a quote and never heard back, or felt like reaching out again might make you seem pushy, this episode is your wake-up call. Michael shares proven follow-up strategies used by top-producing agencies, including the 48-hour rule, the 20-day new lead cadence, and how to stay persistent without being annoying. This episode isn’t just about follow-up — it’s about taking control of the sales conversation, closing with confidence, and becoming a professional who clients trust and remember.
[00:00] Intro: “There is no sale unless you follow up”
[01:00] Walt Disney and the 302 banks – a story on persistence
[02:30] Two agency strategies: which one wins?
[06:45] Why most follow-up fails: lack of consistency
[07:50] The 48-Hour Rule (and why it works)
[10:30] How to text, call, and convert like a pro
[11:30] “What sale are you blowing?” – a reality check
[12:00] The mindset that separates closers from quitters
