To Gain Clients, Differentiate Yourself

Thursday, June 12th, 2008

There is no reason for a prospect to choose you. No reason that is unless you look better or superior than their other choices. You can easily differentiate yourself with info-documents. Steve Van Yoder, author of “Get Slightly Famous” says:

“Free info-documents that address your target market are effective marketing tools when they offer quick, concise solutions to common problems, challenges and concerns.”

That’s the method we use at Javelin Marketing to have the financial advisor stand out. We have them send the prospect a well-written booklet on a topic that the prospect has requested. The booklet is prepared with the financial advisor’s name, photo and credentials on the front cover. When the prospect receives the booklet, the advisor gains instant credibility and stature in the prospect’s eyes (note that the booklet clearly discloses that the booklet was written by Javelin Marketing and is thereby compliant with FINRA rules on published materials).

The advisor using credibility-gaining tools before ever speaking to the prospect has a significant differentiation advantage and is far more likely to have a new client.

It's Easy to Find Clients

Wednesday, June 11th, 2008

Financial services professionals tell us that finding new business is their #1 challenge. But it’s crazy. Each day, tens of thousands of people send checks to Fidelity, to Vanguard, to USAA and other financial services companies that don’t even have a sales force. So there is no shortage of prospects; its that life insurance agents, annuity agents, financial advisors, stockbrokers–they mostly chase after prospects rather than pull them in, as the large companies do.

You don’t need a large budget. You simply need to offer “info documents” like the large players do. For example, check out the Sunday newspaper. You will likely see some big ads offering booklets like “Three Ways to Have a Worry Free Retirement” or 5 Mistakes to Avoid When Rolling Your IRA.” Fidelity, Merrill Lynch and others get thousands of calls from motivated and interested prospects. Why do you chase prospects rather than have the same method of having prospects call you?

You don’t need to have thousands of dollars to advertise in the Sunday newspaper. You can use the Internet for very low cost.

Here’s how we do it at Brokerville

More Field Marketing Organizations Choose Brokerville

Tuesday, June 10th, 2008

In recent weeks, three insurance FMOs (field marketing organizations) have chosen ProspecMatch to assist their insurance agents, annuity producers and LTC producers with insurance leads , annuity leads and long term care leads. A research study by Brokerville found that the #1 challenge of insurance and financial producers is finding new clients. Brokerville was created to solve this problem.

The Internet-based senior leads service provides three benefits to annuity agents and insurance agents:

1. The consumers must take the initiative to log onto the Internet, find the advertisement, and divulge their personal information. So the consumers are already identified as interested and motivated.

2. Before speaking to the consumer, the annuity agent, insurance agent or financial advisor sends a booklet (supplied by Brokerville) branded for the producer, which establishes the producer’s credibility.

3. The producer is coached to success with pre-recorded scripts and twice weekly coaching to gain maximum success from the program. Read lead review comments.
