Life Insurance Sales skyrocketing

Are you selling life insurance?

Our life insurance sells are skyrocketing, but not the policies that get all the headlines.

Simplified, easy issue life has taken the forefront for Premier Insurance Partners. It used to be cheap, fully underwritten term insurance was all the "rave". But it appears that America want its life insurance just like its food - quick, easy, and cheap.

Simplified life policies fit this niche perfectly. You can get up to $250,000 of term or permanent life for pennies. Best of all, no paramed is required. Thus, no stepping on a scale, getting poked with a needle, or trying to give a urine sample. The entire process is done from the application and a quick check of MVR and similar reports. Many policies are issued in under 5 days!

New carriers are entering this market, which supports what we have been seeing. The public wants life insurance, but don't make it so complicated. Make it easy to purchase and put a policy in my hand quickly.

Call us today for more information. Quick issue and quick commissions - both you and your customer will like it!

Medicare Advantage Season

Time Again --- Medicare Advantage season is just around the corner. The selling season is much different this year - it starts earlier and end earlier. Let's look at the timeline:





  • June - Carriers must submit product designs to CMS for approval.


  • July - We should start seeing product designs and what areas they are approved


  • August - On line certification to begin - get started early so you receive your approval and can order supplies when available. You definitely want to avoid the rush.


  • August - should have a good idea of final plan designs and what is available in your area.


  • Sept - Almost time to sell. If you have not yet certified, you are now in the dreaded "bottleneck" when carriers are backed up. Get certified ASAP so you can get supplies.


  • Oct. 15 - selling season begins - a full month earlier than previous years. Most agents will be caught by surprise and not even certified yet. Don't be one fo these agents.


  • Dec. 7 - Selling season ends - "by coincidence" falls on the same date of the Pearl Harbor anniversary.


  • Jan. 1 - all new enrollments take effect.


As you can see, the season is substantially condensed. Call our office for all your Med Advantage needs at 800-504-7471

Monster Annuity Cases

WOW - our average annuity premium with an income rider is just over $100,000 per app!! That's is so significant when you consider the average annuity is about $60,000. Our average is not quite double that of the industry. Why you may ask? It is really quite simple. Our agents are focusing on the benefits of the new Guaranteed Income Riders (GIR). If you have been reading any money magazine, you should be understanding what the senior client wants - guaranteed income at retirement. Most retirees, or soon to be retirees, do not have pension plan. They want an need a guaranteed stable and safe income. These new GIRs provide exactly what retirees are asking for, a definite income amount of money that will last forever and does not lock up their principal. The GIR will not only offer a definite income, but it also guarantees growth as well. One carrier will guarantee a 7% growth and then provide a guarantee payout income at retirement. Most people are thrilled to know they will recieve 7% per year growth. However, when you also guarantee the income they cannot outlive and not lockup principle, you truly have a home run! CAll us today to learn how the GIR will:

  • Guarantee a 7% return

  • Provide a guarantee income for life

  • Yet, does not lockup principle (this is not the same as an immediate annuity)

For the agent:



  • Easier sales

  • Larger premiums

  • Happy annual reviews

It's time - Sr.Dental Insurance that really gets it.

I have never, ever been a fan of dental insurance - the kind for seniors in particular.

However, after 20 years in this industry I have finally run across a plan that makes sense for the consumer and is easy to sell for the agent.

Constitution Life has just introduced a plan with the following benefits:

  • Guaranteed Issue - now everyone wins!
  • No Network - your client can see any dentist (a very big benefit)
  • Benefits that really save your client
  • Very easy, one page application - every agent and costumer will love it.
  • Premiums that fit the benefit. If your clients needs a dentist, this is a good plan. If your client only gets a regular checkup and cleaning, it's still a good deal.

Call today and find out how this product can really help you and your clients. Seniors want a good dental plan, now we have one for them.
