How do new agents go from writing zero apps to 30 apps in a single week? In this episode of the Life Insurance Academy Podcast, Chris and Zach break down the real stories behind agents who are finding success at our telesales BootCamps.

You’ll hear about: ✅ Brian Jackson’s $24,000 week and 30 apps written ✅ A new agent who went from 0 to 9 apps after choosing not to quit ✅ Why expectations, belief, and process matter more than shortcuts ✅ The difference between selling features vs. feelings ✅ Why BootCamps accelerate growth (but don’t replace hard work)

There are no shortcuts to success. The agents winning are the ones who invest in leads, master the sales process, and keep showing up. If you’ve been waiting for a sign, this is it.
