Whew. A lot's happened in the past month or so. I've been working hard, of course. April is so far a record month for sales with 29 written health applications, with 3 business days left. I'm hoping to hit 32 by month's end. Only 16 issued, though, and 12 individual cases and one small group case in underwriting. March and April have been the months of declines by the insurance carriers. The economy, perhaps?
I went to L.A. last week for my first out-of-state business trip, which was extremely interesting. 18,000 Primerica reps filled the L.A. sports arena for their West Coast Convention. We manned our PFI Benefits booth, promoting our health insurance products and free prescription drug discount card. I made some good contacts and have written two policies so far this week on contacts from the convention. Some other good news--our company was the number one independent broker for United Healthcare's Golden Rule in Q1. Can you say "cash bonus"?!
