How to Do "Follow-Up" When Prospecting


Listen Later

Do you struggle with "follow-up" for your prospects? Or, maybe you struggle because you only do follow-up in one form (e.g. cold calls or emails)? If yes, then welcome to the club! We all struggle with it. Prospecting is difficult and confusing and most agencies don't have someone to teach you how to do it because no one else there knows how to do it, either! 

In this episode of the Millionaire Insurance Producer podcast, host Charles Specht will explain not only why having a systematized "follow-up" is both wise and necessary to growing your Book of Business, but he'll take you through a step-by-step prospecting follow-up program he recommends to many people in his 12X Commission Mastermind.
