In Step 3 of the training process, the focus is on training for skills. The primary roles of a producer involve prospecting, selling, and retaining clients. Training is essential to enhance these skills, leading to better outcomes such as setting more appointments, winning more accounts, and building a larger book of business. Leaders play three key roles: training, coaching, and developing. They need to guide their teams in building the skills required for successful prospecting, selling, and retaining.
There are three training resources available:
The training process is not a one-and-done approach. It’s a developmental program that involves continuous growth and progression. Commitment to training is vital for both producers and leaders. Helping producers double their personal income requires focusing on building skills, growing their accounts, and ultimately doubling the agency’s success.
In essence, training is crucial for both producers and leaders. It ensures that necessary skills are developed over time through repetition, leading to competence and confidence, thus driving success and growth within the agency.
“After only 18 months, and less than $40,000 investment we have seen an $850,000 return, just better than 20:1. New business is up more than $700,000. We have also saved $150,000 in non-productive new producer salaries, letting them go much earlier than we would have previously. With these training and pipeline management tools, we were better able to determine they wouldnโt make it.โ
“We expected to go backwards last year because of the economy, instead we grew by 7%.
With Bignition, we have 24/7 access to training. The technology finally gives us an honest picture of where each producer is on any given prospect from intro to close. We have the tools to help our producers drill down on what makes us different from our competition.”
“Our onboarding map gives our prospects a solid understanding of our service plan and how we rehabilitate a company with poor loss experience. Itโs the secret to us winning and it works!
We just closed a $200,000 revenue account using The Wedge sales process and developed our onboarding map with the power of the Bignition CRMโข. This program has been one of the best decisions for our firm.”
โWeโve grown the value of our agency from $8,000,000 to over $20,000,000 in less than four years. This stuff works. A commitment to sales training and discipline has created real value for us as agency owners. Thatโs not BS either! The sales training and accountability systems have been a HUGE part of it.
Itโs all about differentiation and delivering value in a way we never dreamed possible before.โ
