What’s in this episode:
If your conversations keep turning into “just give me a quote” or “I want apples to apples,” you don’t have a pricing problem—you have a process problem.

In Part 2 of the P&C Sales System, Michael breaks down the exact moment most agents lose control of the sale—and how to fix it. This episode is all about what happens after you get them on the phone: how to build real rapport, uncover what actually matters to the client, and position yourself as the expert before price ever enters the conversation.

If you want higher close rates, better conversations, and more multi-line opportunities, this is the step you can’t afford to skip.
