FAQ

Some quick FAQs about your Insurance Mavericks Subscription…

Every day we receive emails from the many agents involved in the Maverick community …and it keeps growing as more agents and advisors find out us. Since many ask us similar questions, we are hoping this simple FAQ will help you out.

Let’s get started …

Q; “What’s the Insurance Marketing Maverick community all about?

A: Simple … It’s about you. It’s giving you the tools to attract an unlimited supply of leads, put your marketing on systems, and grow you income by leaps and bounds.

We started the Insurance Marketing Maverick community in 2007 to help agents and advisors glean some of the information we’ve spent thousands of dollars to learn and lead-getting tools we’ve used to dramatically increase lead flow and personal income of our clients.

Most of the information on this site, like our e-newsletter and other lead getting articles are yours 100% gratis (Free in Spanish)

Q: “Why are you giving away good, quality leading getting and income boosting information?”

A: We are agents and have used almost every strategy out there to generate leads, including buying crappy online leads. We know what it’s like to struggle to find good information so you can shortcut your way to success.

Our goal is to help you out. We discovered early on our genius is implementing marketing strategies to help the companies we run get leads (we run multiple other companies in multiple different niches), and help our clients get more leads, more money, and live the lifestyle they want.

We are generating leads every day. So as a way to share with others our successes and failures, we decided to create the valuable community for every agent to come and learn. Some wonder why we would share such valuable information instead of just keeping it to ourselves.

We did that for a few years, and sure we generated mass leads and made excellent money, but it’s more fulfilling sharing with others and watching them have success too. It’s our way of giving back each day…

Q: Why don’t you give everything away?

A: Yes we could definitely do that if we just wanted to publish our online newsletter.

Our goal is provide you the #1 source for lead getting, marketing, and business building for agents and advisors. That requires our whole team to build websites, publish content, answer emails, answer the phone, put together books, CDs, DVDs, webinars, teleseminars, and publish the Industry’s most watched online TV show, Mavericks Live.

Like any good business, employees like to get paid for doing all that! Since that costs money …at times, we will provide you something for a purchase price.

Occasionally some bobo (clown in Spanish) gets offended that we have the gumption to ask for money in return for a service provided or a product delivered.

They’re BLOWN AWAY. How could we advertise a product or service in our e-zine? This is my response to such people…

I believe in providing good content at no cost. But I am also in business like you. It is *normal* to ask for money in return for bringing a tremendous value to people. Look, if you feel marketing and advertising is wrong, then this site is NOT for you. And you should change careers … because that is exactly the model you should follow to get leads, close the deal and make more money.

You should provide them with good, high quality content to build a relationship of trust. Then, at the proper time, you ask for the sale.

If you don’t want to buy something we advertise, then don’t. You can continue to receive the great content from industry experts and multi-million producers for FREE. Just ignore the ads.

Q: “What is your privacy policy?”

We’re sealed shut. Never have sold anyone’s information … and never will.

You have our guarantee we will never take your information and sell it or share it with others. We value privacy like the next.

If anyone of my team members violates that trust, they will be ostracized immediately!

Q: “How will issues of the Insurance Marketing Maverick be delivered to me?”

A: Right to your computer!

You will receive it right to your email provider. Open the email and start reading. Often you can come back to our website for additional content and that will open in a browser like Internet Explorer or Firefox.

Q: “Why don’t you email the entire issue to me?”

A: It won’t get to you…

If we sent all that valuable content in an email, it wouldn’t arrive in your inbox. The email companies are very fickle about what emails they let pass through and those they don’t. Therefore, we want you to get this valuable information; we send you a short summary of the e-zine and give you the opportunity to read the rest back on our website.

No one likes to receive super long emails. We use email for a quick browse, not to read a book. A webpage is better suited to read a long ezine issue with tons of great content.

Q: “Where can I find past issues?”

A: Right on our website

If you click on the link “Lead Getting Articles” and then click on “Archives” on the pull down menu, it will lead you to all the past issues. ENJOY!

Q: “Can I quote your ezine or content from your products on my website or in my e-newsletter?”

A: Absolutely – we’d love it. Just make sure to give us full credit. Include a link back to our main page www.insurancemarketingmaverick.com.

Q: “Will Brett and Ethan write promotions for our company?”

A: It will be tough.

We work all day running our various companies. Our schedule is pretty booked and planned out for months. Now, we never say never. If you have a decent budget to implement, have a great product, and don’t mind paying a fee … we may take you on as a client. Drop us a note on our feedback box on the website.

A: “You have some great information on this webpage. What other e-zines do you recommend?”

Q: Good question…
