Ok, It is the weekend... and this morning I started getting all of these thoughts in my head that knocking on strangers doors is dangerous. Then I started thinking maybe this isn't a good idea and perhaps I should seek another prospecting technique. But I have no money to do marketing, either I knock or look for something else to do. Then while having these doubts, I was thinking maybe I should delete this blog so I don't look like a fool.
Later in the day I was thinking about my purpose and what I wanted in life and then I came to the realization then my mind is F***ing with me and not to listen to it.
My mission: Stay focused.
My objective: for prospecting: 1. Knock on doors in both bad neighborhoods and upper income neighborhoods. Track results. Discover both what Im prefer and which may be more lucrative. (I offer everything from final expense to SPWL to IUL) Not doing medicare for now. But may.
My 1st goal: Set appointments from door knock marketing. This means the person who answered the door likes me and may even trust me, to some limited degree for now. As such, this will get me in the home soon, like a day or 2 and hopefully sitting at their kitchen table.
If I truly find their needs and I am able to help them with the life insurance products I have, I will find a way to put some ink on an application.
Here is where I am at as of now... Next week: Tuesday and Wednesday June 12 and 13, When it will be 99 degrees outside in Dallas TX, I plan to it the streets in the North Central Dallas TX area. I'm 100% sure that I will be the only life insurance agent in Dallas knocking on doors, If I see another agent knocking on doors... It will totally blow me away!!!!!!!
Anyway, I am nervous about this and feeling anxiety. However, this project that I am about to embark and implement could be the biggest waste of my time and effort ever or I could discover something in the next few days that is going to bring my career the next level which is... I found a great way to earn an income and help people who really need my help. Rinse and repeat as much as possible.
I have a 6 page article that I keep bookmarked in my browser that has given me a totally different opinion on insurance sales and made me realize why I was failing in the past and what I can do now to become a success. The article is called: The Common Denominator of Success
If you sell for a living click the link, opens in a separate window and read the article, it will change everything you believe about selling. Changed me enough to give me enough confidence to create this blogger blog and enough balls to start door knocking. Check it out.
Lastly, back to the first paragraph here... It seems only in the mornings, I get these feelings of insecurity and self doubts, but later in the day, I feel more confident about decisions I make. For now I am going to try hard to ignore insecurities and self doubt thoughts. Seems like another force is in action trying to prevent me from potentially achieving success which this potential will hopefully be discovered in the next few days.
Stay tuned.
