Try one of these ideas about how to network like a pro, get referrals and close the deal on life insurance.
Center of attention
When you’re part of a circle of people, take a step back and use your peripheral vision to notice who’s passing by to include them in the conversation. This will make you the focal point of the group and make a lasting impression on others. Instead of being that person who’s awkward or just there, you become the person who’s bringing people together

Protecting family
I make it very clear to my prospect that the insurance programs I am presenting are not to make him rich, but instead, during his absence, to ensure his family is not poor.

Obtaining referrals
Instead of asking clients “to help your business,” frame your request like this: “I am sure you care about your family and friends. Who among your family and closest friends do you think would need this kind of financial protection? Would you mind if I talk to them about it too?”
