Great message👍

[@Random_Facts911]

Thank you guys. I have found value but unsure how to use it. I am new in the business, newly licensed as of Feb., newly signed on as of April with an IMO (who you had on the podcast not long ago), contracted with a focused niche on Whole Life/IUL for private banking concept, ready to learn how to truly help people.................. and no one to talk to. No leads, no prospects, nothing. Cant even really learn from someone else in the business because I have to "learn how to talk to people first". I get so frustrated with that...how can I learn to talk to people if I dont have any people to talk to????? My "warm market" went nowhere. No interest whatsoever. Follow-up with them like im told. Still no interest.
So here I am feeling stuck with no idea how to move forward. So yes yall bring value, and it is useful......in situations. But my situation is making me seriously wonder what I have got myself into and when things will finally change.

[@Random_Facts911]

And for what its worth, if asked why I haven't bought leads? Because ive been taught that anything besides warm leads for this particular niche wont work. Yall even said it on this podcast. I cant do lead generation first starting out because people wont respond to this type of niche without them knowing you.

[@tydavenport6729]

Change IMO immediately and buy leads and start selling final expense and term or you’ll never make it my friend.

[@cicidy4419]

start talking to people. do the memory jogger. make new friends
