Whole life insurance sales pitch

Ask if you can call him back when you get a minute to talk, set your alarm for 3 in the morning, call him at 3 in the morning. If he doesn't answer, keep calling.

He'll get the hint.

I get NWM bugging me all the time. I'm starting to think about trolling them

They can even "tailor" a plan to my needs.

I have some friends that are salespeople/reps for that company. They are all real good people. But no doubt they need to meet people to sell people, especially if they are just starting out.

Assuming he is a newbie (a non-newbie should know better than to call 6 times) you could:

A) ignore and hope he gets the hint

B) Call him back to say you are not interested

C) Tell him you will meet with him at a place of your choosing (not your office or home - maybe a coffee shop). Let him do his pitch. They sell more than whole life insurance - their term products and their disability products are pretty good - expensive, but good.

If you don't like what he has to say, then just thank him for his time and move on.

EDIT: I see you already have heard the company pitch. Yeah, that stool... LOL. Tell him thanks for the call but you are not interested as you have already spoken to a rep from the company.

After he left me a voice mail and I didn't respond the first time, he should have taken a hint.

90% of sales aren't closed after the first call. So get used to it.

I use NwM but for term and disability only. My agent always tries to switch me to whole but I remind him I'm by interested.

Agree to meet with him. Take out a 10 million dollar policy, and write a check for the first month's premium. He'll get his commissions advanced, and probably spend it all. Cancel the policy within the free look period. He'll get a huge reversal from his company, and have to pay it back. He won't be able to pay it back because he spent it all. He'll probably kill himself. He'll be dead, so he won't be able to bother you anymore. Problem solved.

On a premium that big, the company isn't going to give it all to him upfront for that very reason

To the OP: If the guy has called you that many times, he is very new and very desperate. Not the type of agent I would want to work with anyways. Can always get a free lunch out of it though

Then just call him back or answer the next time he calls and tell him that. He'll be persistent, but just tell him you aren't interested.

It's not rude to speak plain to him. Just tell him you are not interested and not to call back regarding insurance.

good catch.
