Great ideas CJ. For years, I resisted following up with prospects. Last year, I made a decision to forge ahead in spite of my discomfort. I’m much more willing to follow up now, but really appreciate having a plethora of ways to reach out without sounding too hungry.

Thanks, Loretta. I find it helps many people in their follow-up to think of things to say and do OTHER than just asking for business.

i think it is a very useful material because though it may sound as one way process as some people may think, to me its also a follow up on me as an agent. this is because i ask myself the question, what have i done or being to get the clients or to retained the exist ones to bring it more. thank you C.J HAYDEN and i say may GOD richly reward you.
