Episode Description
In this episode of the Life Insurance Academy Podcast, Zach and Roger break down a truth most agents don't want to hear (but top producers live by): skills don't fix a lack of volume. You don't win because you're "better" — you win because you apply your skill to enough real opportunity.
If you've been stuck in "one more training… one more script… one more course…" this episode will challenge you to stop hiding in practice mode and start getting real game reps. You'll learn why scarcity creates hesitation, why "protecting leads" kills consistency, and how business owners think differently about leads (inventory) versus employees (expense).
What you'll learn:
-
Why confidence is the memory of real wins (and you can't get that without reps)
The difference between practice-ready vs. game-ready -
The most common "scarcity symptoms" (fear of dialing, overthinking, avoiding the close)
-
How top producers stay calm: they know another opportunity is behind this one
-
The Opportunity Formula: reverse engineer your income goal into leads, dials, contacts, presentations, and apps
