…and I’m looking to increase my life insurance sales a bit. I was told by a veteran rep once that prospecting at funeral homes is a good idea. How would you approach the manager/owner of the funeral home, and what would be a sales pitch for getting referral business from the people who use the services of the funeral home for life insurance?
Best reply by Gambit:
You’d have to be a low life, scum sucking amoeba to be prospecting at a funeral. It’s a little late for life insurance at that point don’t you think?

I’m an insurance agent selling auto, home, and life insurance…?
Life insurance is marketed through funeral homes all the time. Not only is the death of a loved one a reality check for many people who had previously thought they were invincible, but also the costs of funerals. Funeral homes like to work with life insurers because if people have proper life insurance they are able to buy nicer funerals. Leads for you and more revenue for them.
If you can work out an arrangement with a funeral home then more power to you.
