It was my first ever sponsored AIA roadshow and it was SOME experience, i tell you.
things are just so different when done in person. You get shy ones, people who outrightly enjoy wasting your time, turn you down badly, and the lovely people who make your day by spending a bit of time talking to you even though they don't look like they could be potential prospects.
I spent quite a bit of my time today just having fun, and finding people to talk to.
Unfortunately like what I said before, it's sad that although insurance is easy to sell, it's DAMN DIFFICULT to get people to stop and listen to what you have to say.
which is why I'm happy that i had 20 people who were willing to chit-chat with me and find out a little more about what it is that we are doing for people.
i still have to improve on how to formulate my words properly - how to summarize what my job is without making it sound boring or technical, but i believe that sincerity will shine through and that people can see that the service i provide IS for their benefit, and not just about my commissions.
looking forward to more friendly people to talk to,
Jessica
