MANUEL AMEZCUA
PRESIDENT, CEO AT MASSMUTUAL GREAT LAKES
OVER MY 17 YEAR CAREER IN THIS BUSINESS,
I HAVE SAT IN FRONT OF THOUSANDS OF
AWESOME HUMANS.
MOST OF THOSE MEETINGS HAVE BEEN SET
BY FAVORABLE INTRODUCTIONS FROM
CURRENT CLIENTS.
REFERRALS ARE THE LIFE BLOOD OF A
SUCCESSFUL SALES PRACTICE.
HAVING SIMPLE "SYSTEMS" FOR EARNING
REFERRALS IS THE FIRST STEP.
THESE 5 SLIDES WILL SHARE A SIMPLE
CONVERSATION I HAVE AT THE END OF
EVERY MEETING I KEEP.
confirm value has
been exchanged
ASKING THE QUESTION: "WHAT DID YOU
FIND TO BE MOST VALUABLE TODAY?"
WILL CONFIRM YOU HAVE PROVIDED
VALUE.
reinforce focus on
providing value in
that area
CLIENTS WANT TO BE SURE THEY ARE
HEARD AND UNDERSTOOD. CONFIRM YOU
HAVE HEARD THEM BY RESTATING THE AREA
OF FOCUS IN WHICH YOU WILL PROVIDE
MORE INFORMATION.
remind them how
you met
WE ARE OFTEN INTRODUCED TO OUR CLIENTS
THROUGH A NOMINATOR. REMIND YOUR
CLIENT WHO INTRODUCED YOU AND OF THE
SIGNIFICANCE OF THESE INTRODUCTIONS
FOR YOU TO CONTINUE TO SERVE MORE
FAMILIES AND BUSINESSES.
ask for permission
to brainstorm 3
names
POLITELY ASK FOR PERMISSION TO
BRAINSTORM 3 NAMES OF PEOPLE THEY CARE
ABOUT AND RESPECT SO YOU CAN
INTRODUCE YOURSELF AND POTENTIALLY
SERVE AS A RESOURCE TO THEM AS YOU
WERE FOR YOUR CLIENT TODAY.
stop talking
& SMIle.
😃
K E E P D O I N G
GREAT THINGS.
