Independent Agents Must “Burn Their Ships” in 2010 to be Truly Successful

By
Services for Real Estate Pros with Astonish Results

Perhaps you have heard of the Spanish conquistador, Hernando Cortes. In the early 1500's, Cortes left Spain to pursue a life in the New World. When he finally reached the New World, Cortes ordered all of his ships to be burned, in order to fully commit himself and his crew to a life on this new continent. This way, Cortes removed the option of returning to Spain, and at all costs had to adapt to life as they discovered it.

I had the opportunity to attend a sales presentation last week. We are literally transforming insurance agent's lives with a new way of thinking, and helping them grow their business in even very uncertain times. I couldn't help but to think of signing up with Astonish Results as a "burn your ships" moment for many insurance agencies, as they are doing something radical to help change their business. There can be no turning back. You must be 100% committed in order to truly be successful with our system. Tenacity is what separates the good from the great.

My challenge to you, as an independent insurance agent is this: What do you have planned for 2010 in order to grow your business, even in this down economy? 8 out of 10 people shop for insurance on the Internet. Will they find you?

At Astonish Results, we will help you develop a strategy to help you FIND, SELL, and KEEP more customers profitably utilizing the Internet. We can help you grow your business even during these uncertain times. Call us today at 888-899-1936 to schedule a Virtual Presentation of the Astonish Results system! You can also schedule one online at www.astonishresults.com. Let's make 2010 the best year EVER for your agency, and let's "Burn your ships!"

This is a plan that works because it must. There is no motivation like zero option of retreat/failure.
