I am currently a new agent with Symmetry Financial Group, direct to Jimmy Spieldenner, and let me tell you. Edward is pretty much #1 on ALL the leaderboards. So excited to see him do this interview and spread his knowledge throughout the internet other than Symmetry. love it love it
@@williamclemmons1783 look, I’ve been slacking real bad because of personal issues but let me tel you. I’ve never believed in a company, a system and in these people as much as I do with them. They are the real deal. They genuinely care about their clients and team.
I’m a P&C agent, I needed to hear this story. As a kid I was encouraged not to do door to door sales. The funny thing now, I’m in sales and I love it!! It has elevated my life. Now I’m focused on getting my license.
“If you’re in that place where you’re saying everything is just so hard… Maybe you don’t believe in what you’re doing.” So much wisdom coming from Edward. This was a great interview.
I am so impressed and appreciative of this interview! Thank you both. I am a "just passed exam" waiting for California licensure to come through. Learning ALL I can before I start training next week. Gracias!!
I was trained backwards...in AIL I was taught how to only upsell existing policies NOT bringing on NEW policyholders...which right now since im deemed dangerous for my uplines potential bonus money and STILL havent sold a policy yet. I sold a referral but thats it.
This gets me so excited coming on as a new agent. I want be that agent he’s battling with for that top spot!! Gotta listen to the best and how they do it.
Thanks for watching! If you ever need help or more mentoring, don't hesitate to reach out! We have some awesome programs available for new insurance agents
The title of the video is "How to sell life insurance from home and increase your income". I saw the whole thing (1 hour) and I didn't hear anything about the topic. 100% click bait!!!
100 percent value on how to sell over the phone. Believe in yourself, have a strong mentorship, ask questions, connect with your clients with an amazing story and opportunity. You will make sells. Thanks Cody and Edward.
Let's be real, amazing income does not come from being a captive agent. It does not come quickly; you must learn the trade and be quick on your feet, and it should not be started without money in the bank for cushion
@@bigwheelwhippa4977 You need money to sell insurance as a cushion bc most pay is 100%commission so if your or out there really making lots of sales, you don’t get paid. On the other hand if you’re great at selling you can make a massive amount of money.
Wow Edward you such a kind and humble person Thank you for you're inspirational words I feel you're a very intuitive soul! Thank you! Most people are like Money, Money greed, greed, but you're not!
I have this other short video with him, but I don't believe he puts out his own content.. thanks for watching! Here's the other video: ua-cam.com/video/PgTG8MMHkmQ/v-deo.html

Mr cody you is the one in the world I am life insurance agent I follow you all time. when i talked to clients 90 percent clients are telling that we already have life insurance what is the best and accurate answer of that. Can you assist me will be very thankful.
GREAT interview Cody ... Edward's 'da man' -- doing what God requires him to, for his 'family first' ... @ SFG -- always 'flip-flopped' w/ MW of W Agency (saw it first-hand) ... & he is the 'SFG GOAT' but only achieved it w/ the help of 'Smith Bros, Nate, Marlin, etc. TEAM' -- he's the epitome of how it's done w/ a TEAM, 'NO (I) In Team'! 👍 🤜🤛 👏
@@CodyAskins Also how does one buy/get access to those "... instant leads ..." Edward mentioned; and you confirmed how GOOD they are -- may be interested! 👍🏾
I work independent for a company named Equus financial and we have just partnered with ethos insurance. It is definitely going to require a lot of work but there are people that are making a lot of money in the industry
Thanks Cody! I am looking for a company to work for I am licensed and I can't find a company that has great values. I don't want to bounce around I want to stay somewhere lifelong!
Thank you so much for talking about representation of marginalized folx in the industry! ❤️🤘 I am Transgender, and my life insurance license was just approved in my resident state of MN!! 🎉 But it's been a tough road getting here as I've tried to find other Transgender insurance agents online to learn about their stories, and have only found ONE openly Transgender agent! 😖 It's hard to stay motivated and keep going when I don't feel like I belong or am seen, but then I realized I can be a trailblazer and potentially be someone others can look to someday once I'm done with training and actually working with clients & families!! 😁 Thank you to you both for the work you're doing in educating and helping folx feel like they can be just as successful as those who have been in the industry for years!
I’m not a transgender, nor do I have any skin in the game as far as that goes, but I did notice a common denominator your story has with mine. You mentioned considering yourself a “marginalized folk”, well I feel the same about myself in regards to working with others and I am a combat veteran. You’d be surprised how badly I’ve been stigmatized, even on the independent side. My strongest advice to you, which is what is helping me, is don’t associate yourself with a group of people who you have familiar bonds of victimization with. Create your niche and your own brand of business….Jordan’s brand of business. It’s going to be tough, but in the end, you won’t owe anyone a damn thing when it comes to your success. This is the most important thing to always remember during your worst days on this journey. I wish you nothing but the best of luck. My aggregator is Horizon Agency Systems and they serve my independent agency well 💯 I believe they can take care of you too! Once you are in, you lock in those carrier appointments and then it’s off to the races to focus on whatever insurance products you want to sell! That easy. 💯
What does being transgendered have to do with selling life insurance? And why do you want to find other transgender agents? Your making excuses, which will keep you broke and complaining! Everyone has an excuse of some kind, get over it and go get with whoever can help you sell insurance!
Hey Cody, serious question, I just got licensed, took a captive appointment w State Farm, and had a very hard time learning the game (mixed feedback and guidance, couldn’t just learn one solid way) I’m in a position to pick up a new appointment with another agency, but also would like to know if you think it’s worth while to spend some time captive before making that move? My fear is chargebacks and getting good momentum going and getting cut off at the kneecaps for missing things from having little to no experience. What would you advise I do? I have an idea, but would love to hear your feedback.
I’m genuinely surprised no one responded to your question. Don’t live in fear of charge backs. Work on sharpening your close. If the leads are weak or questionable that’s a good indicator of possible charge backs. Manipulative closing and pressure closing will always have a high buyers remorse and regret result. Find products that really suit the family you are helping, make sure your intention is to actually HELP the family. Present those options which allows them to select the options and you as well as your clients will be able to sleep at night.

Appreciate the comment, thanks for watching!
what’s the starting commision %?
@@AustinGarrett all new agents at Symmetry start off with a 70% commission. It’s different for all agencies
So I just got my license with the help of Symmetry, are they as good as they seam?
@@williamclemmons1783 look, I’ve been slacking real bad because of personal issues but let me tel you. I’ve never believed in a company, a system and in these people as much as I do with them. They are the real deal. They genuinely care about their clients and team.

Awesome Thomas! Good luck with the exam. :)
I met Cody at the airport last year while in line for Starbucks and he was a super nice guy I was really happy I bumped into him
Connected with this guy the most out of anyone you've ever had. This guy is in the industry for the RIGHT reason. Love to see it.
Thanks Colin, there is only one reason to do what we do, making a positive impact in the lives we get the privilege to touch!
This mans goes "I love science" and he's a multi millionaire insurance agent... Edward is the man!!!
Edward is super humble. Graduated from Yale with an engineering degree and switched careers and totally built something massive
He was a great guest that's for sure! Super humble, honest, and gave amazing tips for new and veteran agents
@@CodyAskins Absolutely! Look to be on your podcast 1 day. Next year claiming it 👌🏾 keep producing great content my man
Everyone that you bring to the table is very good, but Mr. Edward Pritchett is one of the best by far.. Thanks for the value that you provide.
“If you’re in that place where you’re saying everything is just so hard… Maybe you don’t believe in what you’re doing.”
So much wisdom coming from Edward. This was a great interview.
I am so impressed and appreciative of this interview! Thank you both. I am a "just passed exam" waiting for California licensure to come through. Learning ALL I can before I start training next week. Gracias!!
Going through study courses. How was the exam?
It was not as hard as I expected it to be.@@McNealyTV
That was the sincerest message I have heard in a long time. Earl Hall was speaking to me like a loved family member. It was not a pitch.
Thank you Cody for having Mr. Edward on your show today such great information for a new agent such as myself.
Appreciate you watching sir!
this interview was so amazing; great questions, the responses, the segways, really great! thanks for sharing!
The last 10 min or so to me have been the most beneficial to me.
Love this 💕 Edward thank you for acknowledging the need for representation in our industry! Cody thank you for always showcasing diversity 🙌🏾
I was trained backwards...in AIL I was taught how to only upsell existing policies NOT bringing on NEW policyholders...which right now since im deemed dangerous for my uplines potential bonus money and STILL havent sold a policy yet. I sold a referral but thats it.
I got an appointment today at 5:30 wish me luck
Good luck sir!
I want to learn to do this from home. I totally need to master this call to close.
How did the appointment go?
How did it go? Did you join?
Thank you for this.. awesome podcast.
Interview with Symmetry tomorrow.. 🙏🏽Edward is very inspiring. Ty

Hello great message. But you didn't deliver the topic agenda. I wish I got tips on how to sell life Insurance.
Incredibly Inspirational ❤
Amazing content.. keep it coming 😤 #levelup
Thank you!
Great video!!! The answer is there you have to listen
Working on getting my insurance license as we speak needed something new in life instead of working the traditional 9 to 5
It's a great industry.. would love to see you at the 8% Nation Conference this July!
@@CodyAskins Hopefully I can attend by then! Also I really enjoy your content keep up the good work.
Lots of valuable info in this video.Thanks for sharing this.🤓 Cheers 🍻

I thought I was trippin.

Such a powerful message🔥🔥
Let's be real, amazing income does not come from being a captive agent. It does not come quickly; you must learn the trade and be quick on your feet, and it should not be started without money in the bank for cushion
I didnt know this. I quit my job to pursue this full time
Why do you need money to sell insurance?
@@bigwheelwhippa4977 You need money to sell insurance as a cushion bc most pay is 100%commission so if your or out there really making lots of sales, you don’t get paid. On the other hand if you’re great at selling you can make a massive amount of money.

How do I get involved?
What is the best way for me to get started if I don’t have an ins license yet?

If you let fear write your story then the story ends where you won’t push past your fear. You can come aboard with me if you want a non captive IMO

@@aishaharris11 how do I come aboard with you? I just got my life insurance license.
Hey Cody! I am a new Life Insurance agent, and I am struggling with getting clients. What can I do?
You should look for a mentor or find imo with live training. Also stop saying it's hard
How can I have someone reach out to me ?
Love it
Anyone like to tell me not interested nd already insurance best rebuttal?
Great vid. But never explained how to sell insurance from home and increase my income. Misleading title.
So the title is, how to sell insurance from home. Am still waiting to hear about that.
What’s the point of the title.
Does he ever actually talk ab how to sell better or just anything else but that
I want my license but People been telling me selling life n health insurance is a waste of time these days. They say it’s too hard to go independent.
hahaha I live in Asheville!
