Insurance Agent Coach for Insurance Producers & Financial Advisors

“Who Else is Ready for a Million Dollars in Insurance Sales While Having Time to Enjoy Life?”

Yes, You Can When You Get Out of Your Own Way & Get the Results You Want

It’s no secret the insurance and financial industry is sick. John J. Healy, CEO of NAIFA stated in “Advisor Today” the industry must change their approach to professional development and sales training. The very people you’d expect to rely on to help you are the least prepared to help you develop a profitable and sustainable business.

For those able to make it past those critical first four years it can be a very lucrative business. However, only 15 percent of you will make it beyond the fourth year if you continue to do the things you’re told to do.

Why? Because what you’re told to do are the very things that will lead to your failure. It’s sad, but true, that you’re told to do things that either don’t work in today’s business environment, or have never worked.

This is ridiculous. The market demand is greater today than it has ever been and is projected to continue to grow. There’s no reason for you to struggle in such a bountiful environment. Especially given that what you offer is virtually bullet proof. Apply Now

So if you can’t look to the insurance and financial services industries for the help you need…who do you look to? In a January 2008 Advisor Today poll 20% reported hiring a coach.

Take a Look at the Top Producers, and Guess What You’ll See? Consistent, On-going Coaching

You’re working hard trying to develop a viable and sustainable business that provides the financial security you and your family deserve. In fact, you’re working much harder than you need to because you’ve been misled.

Each day you wake up and work, work, work all day and into the night. Each day you struggle to figure out how to make your business a success so you don’t have to work this hard someday.

Why Wait for Someday, if it Ever Comes?

It’s like you’re driving around in your car without a road map trying to find the exit leading to where you want to go, but you aren’t even sure you know where you want to go let alone how to get there. So every day you drive hoping that today you’ll find that exit, and immediately everything will change for you.

Achieving Success on Your Own Is a Brutal Uphill Battle

You can continue working harder than you need to work or you could take a shorter route a better route to get where you want to go. Imagine instead of driving around without a map and without a clear destination…battling traffic and fending off near collisions…you had someone right there in the car with you.

Someone Guiding You Along the Way so Instead of Taking Years to Enjoy the Success You Know You Could Have You Get it NOW

” A man’s intellect is stored powder; it cannot touch itself off; the fire must come from the outside”
Mark Twain

And now, you too are about to discover the “fire” to make your business explode! But first, let me tell you a story.

Watching a junior high football game one fall afternoon I witnessed a tiny little mistake. An oversight made by a player completely focused on his role in the game. It all started when the quarterback stepped back and threw the ball toward a receiver.

As the ball left the quarterback’s hand it was tipped by a defender. This slight contact sent the ball off it’s intended path. Several players jockyed to get the ball.

An opposing guard ended up with the live ball. This valiant and determined player tucked the ball under his arm. put his head down, and ran for all his might toward the end zone. He ran as fast as he could deflecting other players as he went.

He literally drug his attackers behind him. He drug those attempting to tackle him until they could hold on no longer. Finally, three other players brought him down.

When the guard realized who tackled him he asked, “What are you guys doing I was headed for a sure touch down?” His fellow players exclaimed in not too friendly terms, “you were headed for the wrong end zone, you lummox!”

Ahhh…how many times have you put your head down determined to achieve what you want only to discover you had the WRONG TARGET in your sights?

“What great thing would you attempt if you knew you could not fail?”
Robert H. Schuller

How would you like to pull back the curtain and UNCOVER THE SECRETS to getting the results you know you can get?

What I’m about to share with you isn’t for everyone. If you:

• believe you already know everything there is to know
• are looking for a “magic bullet” and aren’t willing to take action
• have a “victim mentality”, honestly; I can only work with “players” who recognize the realities behind success

Then what I have to share won’t work for you.

However, if you:

• feel a little stuck or perhaps stagnant and are dead serious about getting what you want

• enjoy taking right action

• are ready to invest your time, energy, and resources to MAXIMIZE your success

This is the right place for you. See yourself getting all the things you want without all the struggle and frustration. Apply Now

“If you risk nothing, then you risk everything”
Geena Davis

You know from experience: books, training, seminars, and workshops…while highly motivational…don’t produce the long-term results you expect. When you had the experience you were all fired up ready to change your life…But you soon felt overwhelmed to the point of being frozen. Unable to put your new ideas to work and unsure of what direction to take.

It’s not your fault. Scientific studies prove after only 2 weeks you forget 98% of what you’ve heard or read. Plus when you get stuck, don’t understand, or want to ask a question there’s no one to turn to.

When you have questions you and I will work together to uncover the best answer for you.

If you need a “kick in the pants” to get motivated then I’ll give it to you.

When you feel lost and hopeless, I’m there to get you back on track.

What if the ONLY Thing Preventing You From Finally Achieving Your Income and Personal Goals Is Not Having a Business Coach?

You’ve been frustrated in the past because you had to wait until what you wanted to know came up in the program, if it ever did.

You were disappointed when what worked so well in the training room didn’t work so well in the real world. Your prospects didn’t read from the same play book and they didn’t know their part.

Training is an incomplete solution you buy over and over again. By design training addresses symptoms without addressing the root cause creating those symptoms.

When you first started you probably worked with a mentor. It was great to see how someone else did things so you could do what they did. However, you also realize when you work with a mentor you only learn what the mentor knows and you tend to make the same mistakes as your mentor. It’s time to move past where your mentor can help you get.

Just think how far you could you go if you could get the help you want…on what you want help with…when you want it.

You put your whole heart and soul into your business. You don’t want to share your frustrations with strangers in a group; so in that setting you simply keep your thoughts, concerns, and questions to yourself.

Instead speak privately one-on-one with someone about your business. With someone experienced helping people exactly like you.

Have You Ever Wondered How it Would Benefit You to Have that Kind of Business Relationship…to Have Someone take You by the Hand and Guide You?

You already know the benefits of working with mentors and trainers. When you first started you worked with others who “showed you the way”. Those mentors showed you how they did things and how those things led to their success.

You and your trainers and mentors are different people with different strengths, skills, and weaknesses. What worked for them may not work as well for you. If you could uncover YOUR OWN BEST WAY to succeed how would that impact your business?

Read about a few of my coaching clients…
Jane — already successful, was in the bottom 10% of the group she wanted to be in. As a highly active person she didn’t feel her rewards matched her level of activity. She’d gotten off to a fast start and rapidly progressed in her business, however, she’d been in about the same place for the last 4 years. As we worked together Jane earned the #3 spot in that highly coveted group of top producers, and her revenue increased 255%.

Tom — wasn’t sure if he should settle for his current client base or if he should grow his business. Working together Tom identified the type of work he wanted to do, and the five key areas he and his staff needed to work on. Within a few short weeks Tom landed his biggest client ever.

Kim — a successful business owner with 15 years under her belt, felt her business was stagnating. In about 6 months she was able to increase her personal sales $100,000. Stimulated by the changes her staff saw in Kim, their motivation and activity level increased. Overall the business grew 20%.

You’re intelligent enough to know your results will be specific to you. Your success is directly proportional to your ability to take action.

What if Instead of Wondering or Guessing What to Do You Knew the Right Actions to Take?

You want to place your faith in a proven process. Business coaching is proven to work. Scott Blanchard states that coaching is an effective and dynamic process that drives sustainability and enhances your return on investment. Here are a few facts reported in the Manchurian Review 2001 Volume 6 Number 1 issue:

• coaching has a lasting impact

• coaching helps you translate ideas into actions impacting your business in a quantifiable way, maximizing your return

• those investing in coaching averaged 5.7 times their initial investment

• 50% of the changes made in the businesses studied were attributed to coaching

• 93% of the people coached would recommend coaching

Imagine if your experience led you to say…

Cindy Key (Boston) — “Cheryl is brilliant at closing the sale. Before working with her, I was semi-successful at closing the sale. I knew if I learned one tip and improved my closing ratio even slightly my business would grow relieving some of the stress in my life. What I didn’t know was that in just one conversation I would be closing the deal twice as often with ideal clients and I would learn to stop wasting time on “tire-kickers”. Saving that time has freed me to work on important things and propelled my business forward at an amazing rate.”

Nancy Proffitt (West Palm Beach) — “Working with Cheryl Clausen has changed not only the way I do business but also changed the way I look at myself and my business. Cheryl’s coaching and systems (which are innovative and forward-looking) for developing a focused plan in conjunction with marketing and sales techniques have helped me grow my business from an unknown startup to a recognized international player in my field. Cheryl is motivating and original as well as being an absolute “hoot” with whom to work.”

Sean Mize (Denver) — “Wow! That was my thought after I began to go through the introductory materials in your coaching program. You cover highly advanced consultative selling skills in a manner that is simple and easy to understand, and most importantly, easy to implement. So many other selling materials out there focus on the “head knowledge” but don’t give clear directives and instructions on actually making the sales and increasing revenue. Yours delivers both — concise theoretical information as a foundation, and strong follow through directives, and that makes all the difference in the world.”

When I began coaching others over 20 years ago I held a position with an international conglomerate. I just wanted to help others get what they wanted. That’s how I’ve always approached coaching, and why I do it.

It has always amazed me what coaching does for the people I work with, I didn’t understand exactly why until I went through coaching certification. I’m about to tell you the secrets of the impact of coaching. Something I’ve never shared with anyone, ever. I’ll tell you now if you promise to keep this a secret. Agreed?

When I decided to leave the corporate environment and start my own business I elected to get “certified”.

Because I’d been “coaching” for so long my Certification Mentor told me I was a natural.

Upon completion of the coaching certification process, I was awarded the highest recognition for coaching proficiency.

During the certification process I suddenly discovered FROM YOUR PERSPECTIVE, why the people I worked with got such amazing results. As part of the certification process you must not only coach to demonstrate your proficiency, you must also get coached.

Wow, so many lightbulbs went off in my head it was like watching the Christmas in July fireworks from the dock at our lakefront cabin. I experienced a sense of elation and joy. A sense of release. All doubt about the value of coaching permanently erased from my mind. I now knew from personal experience the “big deal” about coaching, and why it’s so powerful for the people I work with.

I now knew the secret…coaching makes you see things from an entirely new perspective. Opening up new ways of approaching your obstacles and challenges. Igniting the powder in your intellect enabling you to explode in new directions.

It was like standing with my hand on the door knob of a locked door I previously couldn’t open…no matter what I tried. Up to that point I didn’t have the key, and I didn’t know how to get the key. Behind that locked door was the future I knew possible, the future I knew I could have…if only I had the key. Coaching provided that KEY.

It was as though I was a train powered by steam with a full tank of water headed down the mountain. You have a full head of steam your speed picks up and you gather momentum. You’re unstoppable. You fearlessly race down the mountain to the prize with full confidence you’re in the right place, at the right time, with the right people, doing the right things, for the right reasons.

What if you could unlock the door and step into the future where you…

• increase productivity 49%-93% …leaving more free time than you’ve ever had before.

• increase your net income 50%-255% giving you the financial wherewithal to live your life the way you want.

• attract ideal prospects to you so you never have to chase after people like a beggar again.

• have ideal prospects reach out to you to learn how YOU can help them.

• develop relationships based on trust leading to repeat business and referrals.

• get results, not just from yourself, but from others too.

• have a sustainable business providing the financial security you dream of.

Others have experienced these outcomes as a result of our coaching relationship and there isn’t any reason you can’t too. Apply Now
