Selling Life Insurance: Turn Small YES’s Into Big Wins

Unlock the “secret sauce” of consistent closes: tie-downs (aka micro-agreements). In this episode, we unpack how small, intentional yeses throughout your presentation create momentum, uncover misunderstandings early, and lead to a natural close—not a hard close.

What you’ll learn

• Why micro-agreements work: The psychology of agreement and Brian Tracy’s law of incremental commitment.

• Where to use them: Rapport/CORE, stakes & urgency, education/presentation, budget framing, and the close.

• How to deliver them: Tone, timing, the power of the pause, and why consistency beats complexity.

• Real examples you can steal today:
  
  

• “That makes sense so far, right?”

• “You’d want this in place for your family, wouldn’t you?”

• “Affordability is a priority for you, isn’t it?”

• “If we find a plan that fits your budget and protects [NAMEs], you’d at least want to apply, right?”
  
  

Analogies you’ll remember

• Thermometer: keep “checking the temperature” so nothing goes cold.

• Tent tie-downs / trailer straps: secure each section so the whole sale doesn’t blow away.

• Trail guide: move the fast, middle, and new learners together—everyone arrives at the summit.
