A hard sale is a hard sale, but isn’t so hard after you learn to help them.
I’ve never seen a group this good. It changes the conversation.
One day after training, I realized we were on to something!
The approach makes a lot of sense.
It’s created a new preneed strategy using a totally different approach.
It was wonderful!
