(29:40) Key Quotes: “When you're sitting down with your insurer in that very first meeting, you need to do a few different things in that meeting. You need to build that rapport. You need to make sure that the insurer feels fairly comfortable with you to start talking.” - Charles Specht “Once you have found out a number of problems with your competition, then you start to open up your timeline of services, you start explaining what you're going to provide to them over the course of a 12 month period, you're explaining to them what it is that you're going to actually provide.” - Charles Specht “There is a much better plan to build a $1 million or more book of business and it is in the art of persuasion. It's in negotiation. And specifically, it's for those who are flat out terminators when it comes to renegotiation. Not too difficult to do, but potentially difficult for some to begin implementing. ” - Charles Specht Resources Mentioned: Reach out to Charles Specht Permission Network Insurance Agency, Inc.
