How to Sell Annuities, selling annuities, annuity sales.

Selling annuities is a process that evolves as the relationship evolves. Once the lead is secured and the appointment made the real selling process starts with the fact finder. Most agents look as a fact finder as a method of collecting the "facts" of the prospective client. I don't!. To me a fact finder is using probing questions to find out how a prospect feels about themselves, their situation and their assets.

Fact finding is both science and art. The science portion is the common sense issue of collecting the facts of the prospect's situation. The art is getting the prospect to be honest and tell you how they really "feel" about those same assets. The feeling portion is far more important because it allows you an insight into the prospect and what motivates them to action.

Consider using a power phrase that I have used for years. "Mrs. Jones, you mentioned you own an IRA, may I ask you this? What is the purpose of your IRA and what would you like it to accomplish?"

When Mrs. Jones answers that question it will be with a feeling answer. Once she answers with a feeling response, you will be able to probe many other areas of her situation with the same type of questions.

Compare a feeling answer with a factual question. "Mrs. Jones, you stated you own an IRA, where is it invested?" The answer will be meaningless in regards to building a relationship. Remember, the very most important part of a fact finder is learning how a prospect feels not where their assets are invested.

Cash For Your Structured Settlement

Sometimes when a plaintiff settles a case for a large sum of money, the defendant, the plaintiff's attorney , or a financial planner consulted in association with the settlement, will propose paying the settlement in installments over time rather than in a single lump sum. When a settlement is paid in this manner it is called a " structured settlement ". There are some settlement purchasing companies who are interested in paying the individual a lump sum amount for receiving the rights to receive a structured settlement; the lump sum amount offered is a discounted amount. The individual who gets the lump sum amount can use this amount for buying a house or automobile or pay for schooling etc. Under normal circumstances the payment would be done on the fixed intervals agreed to between the two parties and the individual would not be able to purchase items such as house, car etc. The recipient of a settlement may have his own reasons for considering cas...
