3. The value of financial advisors
Know your value as a financial advisor. While your clients would rather buy a phone before insurance, MDRT member Subhas V. Nathan, of Singapore, describes his time-tested method for helping a client understand that life insurance protects financial futures and is like a valuable contract with the ones they love.

“Where will your income come from when your paycheck stops?” And “What percentage of estate reduction is acceptable for you?” are questions that help clients understand the value of life insurance and financial planning. Framing and how you construct questions can get prospects thinking and responsive. MDRT Past President Brian H. Ashe, CLU, of Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, USA, shares several examples and discusses this idea more in his 2016 MDRT Annual Meeting presentation.
