I hope this quarterly newsletter with tips and insights into the life & health insurance industry finds you enjoying the sun, the fun, and some family vacation time. The summer months always allow me to relax, recharge, and prepare for the upcoming Medicare season. But I won’t spend time talking about that, as Rick does a great job covering all things Medicare for you. What I would like to visit and share with you is […]

Almost one quarter in, and HOW ABOUT THEM CHIEFS!

Happy Summer! The official kick off to summer is June 21st. However, once we reach Memorial Day and the kids cut loose from school, it feels like summer. We witness vacation time being utilized, including agents alike taking their family on vacations, so sales typically experience a bit of a slump during the summer months. In the past, Produces XL would offer various recorded webinars, emails, and things alike to keep you informed as the […]

We have all had those days, weeks, maybe even months where we are so busy we feel like we are drowning and don’t know where to start to make a dent in the workload. Now imagine yourself being a consumer, swimming through the worldwide web looking for insurance when in fact, you don’t even know enough to be dangerous. Even though our clients have information at their fingertips, it does not mean they are asking […]

As I sit at my desk, listening to Christmas music, it always takes me back to when I was a kid and how excited me and my little brother would get for Christmas morning. He always wanted “big” gifts like weights and a weight bench, and I always got lots of smaller gifts. And although he got what he asked for, he always had to sit and watch me open more presents. Now we are […]

Here we go again, rounding out another year. As most of us move into the fourth quarter of each year, we try and wrap up loose ends and set plans for the next year; always knowing all plans need to be flexible but some things we’d love to be constant. Renewals, Retention, and Recruitment are some of the items we’d love to see set in stone. But as we know, not always the easiest to […]

Here we are, rounding out the first quarter of 2022! When I pause and think back and then think forward, what comes to my mind most is “Thank you!”. Thank You to all the agents who reinvented themselves, who pushed through, who continued to work/sell insurance and meet the consumers how/when they wanted to be met. I am also very thankful to the team at Producers XL. They dug in and never once wanted to […]

“Live every day to the fullest, because you aren’t guaranteed tomorrow.” “You can’t take it with you.” “Dream as if you’ll live forever; live as if you’ll die today.” Angie Hughes LTCi Marketing Manager 800.541.6705Ever heard any of these quotes? I enjoy reading inspirational quotes but find myself being a planner and not leaving things to chance. I recently read a white paper from Nationwide titled, “Rethinking Retirement: Why you Need to Plan with Longevity […]
