If you're going to win a new client, at least one person, maybe more, has to lose in order for you to win.” - Charles Specht “Sales is war. And if we don't give the insured some kind of a time period in which to have a decision done, they will continue to push it off, push it off, push it off, push it off. And before you know it, you are no longer at the top of their to-do list.” - Charles Specht “Timing is so important to success. Timing is so important to prospecting. Giving your prospect a certain amount of time in which to get something done is very important.” - Charles Specht Resources Mentioned: Reach out to Charles Specht Permission Network Insurance Agency, Inc.
