    Throwback: MINDSET
    Apr 21 2025
    MIND SET. You're either strong in the area of confidence and mindset, or you're a weak little puppy. Which one is it? Insurance agents who lack confidence tend to write fewer new accounts each year, they write smaller accounts, and they don't win many (any?) signed Broker of Record Letters. The opposite is also 100% true: Insurance producers who are confident and in the right frame of mind set more appointments and write more accounts, they write larger revenue accounts, and they win significantly more clients through signed Broker of Record Letter. In this throwback episode of the Millionaire Insurance Producer podcast, host Charles Specht will not only tell you why MINDSET is so important for an insurance producer but he'll tell you the basic things you need to do -- today! -- in order to start dominating and winning! ---------- PS: Remember, the "PERMISSION PRODUCER SCHOOL" is launching on October 14, 2024.

  • You Will Reap What You Sow (in both Life & Sales)

    You Will Reap What You Sow (in both Life & Sales)
    Apr 17 2025
    You get out what you put in. You win championships when you do the good work. You reap what you sow. These are the realities of what happens to people (and teams) who do the right things over and over again. Success comes to those who do the right work and stay consistent. Last time I checked, none of your insurance carriers pay any "consolation commission" when you come in 2nd place. It's all or nothing, baby! If you sow inactivity, you will reap the wind. If you sow inactivity for long periods of time, you'll reap the whirlwind. If you don't do the proper prospecting work, you won't schedule any new business appointments or win any signed BOR's or secure any deposit checks. The choice is yours. In this podcast episode, host Charles Specht reminds, motivates, and guides you on what and why you need to reconsider what you're doing in order to get the results you actually want. Key Topics: Why being busy doesn’t mean being productive The real reason you’re not getting appointments or BORs How second place in sales pays nothing literally The time audit every producer needs to do How the wrong daily tasks kill your commissions Why consistent prospecting is the only path to winning Imperfect action beats perfect inaction every time Reach out to Charles Specht Visit: Permission Network Produced by PodSquad.fm

  • Throwback: The Perfect Script for Cold Calling and Overcoming Objections

    Throwback: The Perfect Script for Cold Calling and Overcoming Objections
    Apr 14 2025
    Cold Calling is never much fun, but it can become your pot of gold at the end of a rainbow if you can figure out the proper Script and get your delivery of the Script down pat with both enthusiasm and confidence. Most insurance agents have a lame, tired, and worn-out Script that makes them sound like every other agent out there. Don't be that agent! In this throwback episode of the Millionaire Insurance Producer podcast, host Charles Specht will give you actual examples of what your C3 (Cold Call Carrot) and Script should be in order to be more successful when cold calling. Then, Charles will walk you through how to overcome the two main Objections you will hear: 1) We're happy with our agent, and 2) Now is not a good time. These will help you set more new business appointments with less time prospecting. PS: The "Permission Producer School" is getting ready to launch on October 14th, 2024. Are you signed up yet?

  • Throwback: Your First $250,000 of Commission - (Permission Producer School)

    Throwback: Your First $250,000 of Commission - (Permission Producer School)
    Mar 24 2025
    You know, if a producer doesn't get to $100,000 of commission in a reasonable amount of time, they often either get fired or they find a new job outside of insurance. So, we not only need to help them get to $100,000 of commission but I think -- more importantly -- we need to get them to a $250,000 commission Book of Business as soon as humanly possible. Why? Because, once a producer gets to $250,000 in annual gross commission, they are usually not going to get fired, they're in the insurance business for life, and they're typically making six-figures in annual take home pay themselves. Therefore, that's why I am launching the PERMISSION PRODUCER SCHOOL, which is a 3-week intensive new producer sales training school to help new producers write $250,000 of commission in 1.5-2 years. (Go to www.permissiongroup.com to learn more) Key Topics: The importance of hitting the $100,000 gross commission milestone for job security. The challenge of transitioning from learning to producing quickly in the insurance industry. Strategies for reaching $250,000 in gross commission, including the Permission Producer School. The need to focus on a single micro-niche to accelerate growth from $100,000 to $250,000. Why a shift in strategy is required to move from $250,000 to $650,000 in commissions. Key changes needed to leap from $650,000 to $1.2 million, such as targeting larger accounts. The mindset and strategy shifts necessary to achieve a $3 million book of business.

    Throwback: How to Prospect the Low-Hanging Fruit
    Mar 17 2025
    I have a confession to make: I firmly believe insurance agents are prospecting all wrong. And, it is not only costing them thousands of dollars every year in new business commission, but they are losing literal weeks (months?) of their lives in the process. But, I also have some good news as well. The good news is that you can be happier as a producer, more successful, get more hours of your life back, and win more frequently. It all boils down to prospecting the low-hanging fruit. In this throwback episode, I (Charles Specht) will tell you what the low-hanging fruit is and also how you can win it! Key Topics: Introduction of "low-hanging fruit" in insurance sales Analogy of picking ripe figs to explain targeting easy opportunities Importance of using the Broker of Record (BOR) letter in acquiring new clients Techniques for identifying and capitalizing on straightforward sales opportunities Discussion on the mindset needed for low-effort, high-return sales approaches Insights into streamlining the sales process by focusing on ready-to-switch clients Encouragement to refine focus on opportunities with the greatest return and least complication Reach out to Charles Specht Visit: Permission Network Produced by: PodSquad.fm

  • Throwback: How to Increase Your Quoting Win-Ratio by 50%

    Throwback: How to Increase Your Quoting Win-Ratio by 50%
    Feb 20 2025
    Going for the BOR is always the better option, but sometimes you just have to quote. If you go through a normal quoting process, be sure to get these three (3) things from the prospect. Once you do this, your quote-to-win ratio will increase so much that you could see your new business revenue increase by some 50% annually. That's a lot of commission. It's YOUR new business commission! But only if you get these three buy-in's from your prospect. So, listen and implement. PS: Download a free copy of The Millionaire Producer at: https://permissiongroup.com/the-millionaire-producer/ Key Topics: Understand the significance of the quoting process in the insurance industry The importance of the Broker of Record (BOR) letter Three essential steps to secure more clients and increase commission The importance of exclusive access to key insurance carriers Ensuring guaranteed business through clear agreements on price savings Preventing competitors from getting a last look at quotes Strategies to remind clients of agreed terms during the quoting process Reach out to Charles Specht Visit: Permission Network Produced by: PodSquad.fm
