Preso Cheat Sheet
INTRODUCTION: Hi, I’m Mike from American Income Life Insurance Company. I spoke to you about the
benefits and the Child Safe ID Kits endorsed through the International Union of Police Associations. Is
Mary here? They have me using my laptop to save some time and for quality control. Do you mind if we
sit at your kitchen table near an outlet? They have me running around like crazy, so if it’s OK with you,
I’ll go ahead and give you the quick version. (don’t sit till they do; ask whether to remove shoes)
WARM UP AND RAPPORT (F-O-R-M): Let me go ahead and get started…hey while I get this set up....
(start typing necessary information to get presentation setup and use these sample questions and
others to build rapport—DON’T FORGET ABOUT THE SPOUSE) How long have you lived in the area?
Do you know the neighbors pretty well? Do you have a lot of family in the area? Where do you work?
What do you do for work? (make sure to share something about yourself; continue once rapport is built)
WHY I’M HERE: (For Non-Child Safe don’t mention Child Safe Kit or Two Part Program) Let me tell you
exactly what my job is. First I’m going to deliver your Child Safe Kit and no-cost benefits, and then I’m
going to go over the additional benefits that you’re entitled to if you qualify. It’s a two-part program—the
first part protects your kids when something happens to them, and the second part of the program
protects your kids when something happens to you. My company, American Income, works with over
20,000 different unions, credit unions, and associations handling their additional benefits. Because of
American Income’s relationship with the International Union of Police Associations, you have access to
the same exclusive benefits that groups like police officers and firefighters have had access to for years.
This quick video will give you a quick introduction to the company. CLICK ON PRESENTATION TYPE,
PLAY THE INTRO VIDEO BUT SKIP “GIVING BACK”
CHILDSAFE ID KIT: Joe and Mary, here’s your no-cost ChildSafe ID Kit. I’m sure you know families
with children, right? (Wait for response) This kit provided by American Income is one of the most
comprehensive on the market and gives the police what they need to help find a missing child. You can
only get these by a visit from someone like me. (if they have children) I have one of these for each of
your children. (Show and explain the Kit) PRESS CONTINUE, SKIP NO COST & THE REFERRAL
VIDEOS AND GO TO THE REFERRAL INPUT SCREEN (REFERRALS MUST GO IN LAPTOP)
Every time you turn on the news you hear about human trafficking, a kidnapping, or a child running away
from home. If something happened to one of the children that you know, wouldn’t you want their parents
to have this kit? (wait for response) Through our partnership as the endorsed company by the
International Union of Police Associations to handle this program, you’ll be able to get this kit out to up to
10 families that have children. Who is the first family we can get these kits to? (shoot for 10)
HEALTH SERVICES DISCOUNT CARD: Joe and Mary, this is the no-cost Health Services Discount
Card. Since group benefits can change or be taken away, this no-cost benefit will help by giving you up
to a 60% discount on (point to all services) vision care, prescription drugs, hearing aids, and chiropractic
services. This brochure has all of the enrollment information including the toll-free number and the
website which will answer any of your questions. I’ll leave this for you…you can check it out after I leave.
AD&D CERTIFICATE: The next no-cost benefit is the Accidental Death and Dismemberment benefit.
[example: $2,000 AD&D] Joe, this is a living benefit that pays you $1,000 for the loss of one hand, one
foot, or sight in one eye; and double that amount, or $2,000 for the loss of any two. Mary, for you, this is
a death benefit that would pay you $2,000 should Joe die accidentally. Now I know that $2,000 isn’t all
the money in the world, but if Joe died, I’m sure you can see how that would help, right? (wait for
response) Now, Mary, go ahead and sign here acknowledging the benefits and that you are the
beneficiary. And Joe, sign here acknowledging the benefit and that Mary is the beneficiary.

RESPONDING TO OBJECTIONS AT THE BEGINNING OF THE PRESENTATION
How long is this going to take?
It doesn’t take too long. For me…the shorter the better because I have to see a member every hour on
the hour and they have me running around like crazy. You’re going to love what they set up for you and I
want to make sure you understand everything you’re entitled to...could we use your kitchen table? It will
make things go a lot quicker…

One more thing I need to do is to put two emergency contacts on here, in the event you were to die
together in a common accident. It would be wise if they were local, over the age of 18, and living outside
your home. Who is your first emergency contact? Your second? (write the names of the emergency
contacts, phone number, city, and relationship on the AD&D certificate which you will leave for them,
or on the back/bottom of the green gift certificate AD&D)
AD&D REFERRALS: Joe and Mary, I need your help. Can you help me with something? (Yes)
American Income gives me 10 Life Insurance Certificates that they let me use for families you introduce
me to. I’m asking you for an introduction. This doesn’t cost you or them anything. Worst case scenario,
they get more insurance and you helped me out. Everyone always gives these to their emergency
contacts since they are closest to them, so aside from them, let’s get this to at least 3 more people you
know. You mentioned… (give examples of people and be assumptive—shoot for 5)
HOMEWORK: Please make sure you give the families you extended the no-cost benefits to a call or a
text, letting them know that I will be getting in contact with them in the next few days. (Fill out homework
sheet and send text that they can forward to families they referred)
AFFORDABILITY TIE DOWN: The last concern is affordability. We sit down with people making $7 an
hour and some making $47 an hour. Some are working tons of overtime, and some are laid off. They
wanted this to be affordable for everybody. Joe, let’s imagine your boss comes up to you tomorrow at
work and tells you that because business has been good, the company is going to start paying you for
41 hours instead of 40. Now, with that one hour, are you and Mary going to go buy matching Ferraris?
Start construction on your dream home? (wait for response) Of course not! Now on the flip side, let’s say
your boss comes up to you and tells you that things are a little slow, but instead of laying you or your co-
workers off, they would just send everyone home an hour early on Friday. So, you would be working 39
hours instead of 40. Would you have to get rid of cable? Cancel dentist appointments for the kids? Take
food off the table? (wait for response) Exactly! A one hour adjustment doesn’t really change anything.
MEMBER SURVEY: SKIP INTRO TO LIFE INSURANCE VIDEO AND GO TO MEMBER SURVEY This
is the final no-cost benefit, the Needs Analysis. I’m going to ask you some questions. If there is no need,
it won’t make a recommendation. If there is a need, I will review the recommendations with you. (ask all
of the questions on the member survey but input $0 for Whole Life, Term, and Group Coverage; make
sure to click NON-INFLATION OPTION and click “Continue”)
MANDATORY READ-OFF LETTER: Before I review your areas of concern, I have this Mandatory
Read-Off Letter for you which explains how the enrollment process works. (turn the screen toward the
members or preferably use their letter if possible and have a ‘between you and me’ moment) Joe and
Mary, instead of reading this whole thing, let me just summarize it for you…
What it’s basically saying is that…if…as I’m going through the benefits, you’re nodding your head
(visibly nod your head) thinking, “Wow, these are some great benefits…and I can see why they
approved this and why everyone is doing this,” go ahead and apply today while I’m out here. On the flip
side, if I’m going through the benefits and you’re thinking to yourself, “You know, these really are great
benefits but they don’t fill a need for me and my family right now,” then I’m actually going to ask you
NOT to apply. Either way, yes or no, that decision does have to be made today, during your service
Vasu Agency // Laptop Presentation 2017-12-04 FINAL // Page 2 (Dollar amounts shown vary for different presentations; these are for illustration) // For Training Purposes
period, in fairness to all the other people waiting to enroll. They could do it this way because everything
has already been checked, rechecked, and approved by over 20,000 groups that set this up to be a no-
brainer for their members. It’s going to be an easy yes or no. Does that make sense?
Whatever you decide to do, they still want your opinion on this Officer Report Form, which is sort of like
my report card (show the form). So, it’s important that you listen and ask questions. Joe, will you
promise to stop me if you have any questions? Mary? You too? (Make sure they are tied down)
**WRITE IN THE BENEFIT AMOUNTS AS YOU GO, AS WELL AS ‘0’ ON THE “JOB A” SIDE**
FINAL EXPENSE BENEFIT: The first concern has to do with your funeral and final expenses. There’s a
100% chance your family will need this. I’m going to let this video explain. SHOW FOC VIDEO American
Income is going to provide you with $15,000 for this need. The Freedom of Choice Certificate (show
certificates) has been set up to take care of this burden for your family. (explain spouse benefit if
applicable) They are using whole life insurance to fund your Freedom of Choice that way it’s there
when—not if, your family needs it. This helps to protect any existing insurance and savings your family
has. Right now, with your current job, you don’t have this.
INCOME PROTECTION: Obviously, Mary, when Joe dies you’re going to miss him, but after a few
weeks go by, you’ll be missing his paycheck too. So, American Income is going to provide $180,000
when that happens. Mary, this would give you and the children $3,000 for 60 months to replace Joe’s
income. (explain spouse benefit if applicable) This would be reviewed, renewed, and updated every 10
years. Mary, having 5 years of income would be huge at that time, right? (wait for response)
MORTGAGE PROTECTION: (usually funded by ADB, but sometimes Term) Besides their income, the
next thing people want secured for their family is their home. American Income is going to give you
$100,000 of coverage for this. If you were to die during your working years, it’d probably be due to an
accident so to help give you the most value, this is funded by an accidental death benefit. Right now with
your current job, you don’t have that.
CHILDREN’S EDUCATION: (usually funded by ADB, but sometimes Term) The next concern had to do
with your children’s future education. If you died unexpectedly in an accident, American Income is going
to provide $100,000 or $50,000 for each of your 2 children. This money will be set up to give your
children a head start in life. Obviously with your current job, you don’t have that.
CHILD RIDER: Also included is a special $10,000 life insurance plan for all of your children, 18 and
younger, that qualify. When they turn 21 they can convert this to 5 times that amount, or $50,000 of
permanent life insurance with no health questions. Your kids will thank you for having the foresight to get
this set up for them.
Vasu Agency // Laptop Presentation 2017-12-04 FINAL // Page 3 (Dollar amounts shown vary for different presentations; these are for illustration) // For Training Purposes
CO-PAY, DEDUCTIBLE, AND LOST WAGES BENEFIT: Add Double A71000 benefit but No
Recouperation Benefit The next benefit helps take care of some income concerns if you are in an
accident or get injured. This benefit will pay you up to $100 every time you go in for a bump, bruise, or a
bee sting—any type of accident or injury. If you are overnight in the hospital it pays you $200 per day
and double that for intensive care, or $400 per day. If you’re in the hospital, what are you not doing?
(Working) If you aren’t working, you’re not making what? (Money) Do bills still come in? (Yes) Exactly;
with this benefit if you were injured on or off the job and you were in the hospital for 5 days, it would pay
you $1,000. With your current job all you get are bills and income loss. On top of that, this benefit will
pay $10,000 for the loss of a hand, a foot, or sight in one eye, and double that, or $20,000 for the loss of
any two. Right now with your current job, you don’t have any of these benefits.
RETIREMENT FUND FOR UNEXPECTED ACCIDENTAL DEATH (A71000 ADB): If you died in an
accident, this would catch your family off guard and stop your pension and social security accumulation.
So with this benefit the surviving spouse or the children receive an additional $20,000-$100,000 that
pays out immediately depending on the type of accident. This benefit is set up for both of you- that way
you are both protected. Right now with your current job, you don’t have that.
TERMINAL ILLNESS RIDER: Another important feature of this program is that if you are diagnosed with
a terminal illness such as cancer you can access half of your Freedom of Choice and Income Protection
benefit while you’re alive (half of the whole life and term insurance). The remainder will be paid out to
your family. Joe, you’ll have $97,500, and Mary, you’ll have $34,500 available to you to put your family
in the best financial situation before you die. Right now with your current job, you have $0.
PERMANENT AND PORTABLE, STRIKE AND LAY-OFF PROOF: American Income has been around
for almost 70 years and has an A+ Financial Rating. Unlike your group benefits which you can lose,
these benefits are permanent and portable. If you leave your job or retire, you keep these. In addition, if
you are on a qualified lay off they will cover the benefits for you for 3 months and if you happen to be
involved in a strike, the benefits are covered for up to 12 months so you don’t lose them.
Now what I have just gone over with you is what the Benefit Software suggests as the basic plan to
handle your concerns. There’s one more option you could choose if you qualify: it’s recommending you
move to a “Preferred” Freedom of Choice benefit of $31,000 to protect your family from inflation
increases. This actually gets you a better rate. It’s only an extra $12 per week to add the inflation
adjustment. Do you want to start with the basic program for an hour’s wage, or $30 per week? Or do
you want to do a little more for your family and get the inflation protection built in for $42 per week?
(wait for response) OK, that’s smart…that’s exactly what I would do. Like I said before, you do need to
qualify for these benefits so I need to ask you a few health questions to see where you’re at…(begin
asking health questions on the back of the QR)
AFTER THE HEALTH QUESTIONS (Q-R CHECKLIST): OK, I’m not the underwriter, but based on what
I’m seeing here it looks like you should be able to qualify for the benefits. (Take out Q-R Checklist and
go right into the Q-R) OK guys, this is the Q-R Checklist which is a mandatory checklist that we review
with all of the members; it explains the enrollment process. The first thing the checklist talks about is the
way the benefits are handled… (complete the Q-R checklist and the rest of the application process)

For POS: I gave the referrals last time
OK, great…actually those are the families we want to start with. They probably already have coverage
with American Income and they are probably due for their review. For POS referrals, it’s best to say this
proactively… “Let’s start with the families you sponsored in last time because they probably already
have coverage with us…”
“Well you know, Joe, I understand how you feel. A lot of members have felt that way, but when they
found out about the benefits that have already been implemented for them and the other benefits that
they can possibly be eligible for, they are actually pretty excited about the visit and the time that we
spend. This won’t take long. My job is just to give you some information and to go over everything that
you may be eligible for. You listen to it and you can do exactly what you want. All I need you to do is
listen. Does that make sense?”
The Feel-Felt-Found method can be used in almost every response to a member objection. The
important thing is just explaining that, hey…agreeing with them…not coming up against them, but just
saying, “hey, I understand how you feel” and then kind of relating it to other members as well so we don’t
feel isolated, you know “A lot of members have felt that way”, but then going to the next level is where
the transition is. Explain to the them, “But once they found out” and say whatever it is that you’re trying
to explain to them, and then explaining how excited that they were, or appreciative they were, of what’s
been done for them.
It works wonderful, it’s just an amazing transition of statements that will get you from where you’re at,
which is nowhere, to actually along the road together, with the member, hand in hand.
Vasu Agency // Laptop Presentation 2017-12-04 FINAL // Page 19 (Dollar amounts shown vary for different presentations; these are for illustration) // For Training Purposes
for about 3 cents on the dollar. Basically, the idea is taking your first hour Monday Morning and setting
that aside for your family…and with that hour you get all of these benefits.
Because they wanted this to be affordable for every family that we saw they actually came up with two
options: Option 1, which provides the benefits at about an hour’s wage per week, or $______ a
week…and that comes to $______ a month, or Option 2, which provides the same benefits but with
inflation protection built in. Which option works best for you?
Holiday Close
Now I know that it’s Christmas time and there are gifts to be bought and it seems always funds are short
this time of year. But Joe this is probably the best present you could get your loved ones. I am sure if
you wrapped the policy up and put it under the tree, you won’t get all the hugs and kisses the toys will
get you. But really…do they even remember what you got them last year…I bet not. This is the most
unselfish gift, the most valuable you can give them…it is something that will not get you all the hoopla,
but as a parent sometimes we have to do what’s best, not what’s popular. Like I said, the wrapped gifts
they won’t remember, with this policy, if something happens, they’ll never forget.
No problem. I understand where you’re at. The only thing is though, like I said before; they wanted us to
do this on an enrollment basis…like your letter said.
They figured they could do it this way because they already checked everything out and approved it for
the members. You know the Company is A+ rated, 100% union (only say this if they like unions or are in
a union) and over 20,000 other unions, credit unions, and associations have approved this as well. The
insurance benefits have been checked and rechecked and these are the ones your entitled to and
eligible for. I mean you do what you want, but the main thing is getting in on the benefits...BUT KEEPING
IT COMFORTABLE! Remember it is member owned. So, if it ever becomes uncomfortable for you down
the road, you could always change it later...make sense? Most members are enrolling at the basic level,
is that comfortable or would you want to adjust it a bit?
Response #2
I can understand that… a lot of members feel that way. But we try to explain, as I mentioned before, that
we are only supposed to see each member once each enrollment; and our enrollments run about three
or four years. Now, I know how much you like this program and how much your family needs it so I
wouldn’t want to take anything away from you. I’m sure you didn’t mind the fact that if anything happens
to you, Mary and the kids will get an extra $25,000 or $50,000. If this was offered to you free, I’m sure
you would jump at it. So really, it’s a matter of whether $______ per week is actually comfortable for you.
Do you feel $_____ per week would take food off the table?
Vasu Agency // Laptop Presentation 2017-12-04 FINAL // Page 20 (Dollar amounts shown vary for different presentations; these are for illustration) // For Training Purposes
POS I want to think about it
I understand where you’re at. Because you are a policyholder already, you can have someone from our
company visit you whenever you want. So in this case, it’s true that you can have some time to think
about it. Unfortunately, the problem is, that the person that would come out to see you couldn’t be me
since I’m not an agent listed on this policy. They have me running around like crazy and I’m only allowed
to stop by once for a service visit unless I have a relationship with the client. The fact that you’re thinking
about it tells me that you see the value in the program, but maybe we just need to adjust it a little bit? I
don’t want you to have to go through all of this again, so while I’m out here why don’t we get some of the
adjustments made, and then down the road you can call me anytime you want and as long as your
health hasn’t changed we can make further adjustments. Now, did you want to start with the
improvements we talked about or did you want to adjust it a little bit to make it more affordable?
“Well, you know they have me running like crazy, like I told you...and people are already calling from
other cities wanting to get involved and we can't seem to get out to them. And you know, as I said, the
program is member owned, so once you’re enrolled this is yours...you can do what you want with it. So if
$ per week is comfortable for you right now...go with it...it's yours, you could always change it later.
Make sense?”
An Elongated Hesitation…
Just because you are hesitating so long, I don’t think it’s a good idea you do it at this level. Again, the
important thing is getting in on the benefits but keeping it comfortable. So let’s do this…we will keep
most of the benefits in tact as you really need them, we’ll just adjust the amounts a bit and that will bring
it down to $______ per week…does that make better sense right now?
We have plenty of insurance and my spouse doesn’t need the extra money
Well, that could be true, Joe. Fact is that she may not need it. But, you know, if she doesn’t need it she
can always use the money to take a trip or send the kids to a better college or something like that. I’m
sure you wouldn’t mind that. But you know, extra bills and the uncertainty in life, there’s a chance, just a
chance, that she may need it… and I will guarantee you that the $30,000 she would get if she does need
it will mean a heck of a lot more to her at that time than the $5 means to you guys right now. So, really,
it’s just a matter of comfortability. It’s just $5 a week, is that going to take food off the table or change
your lifestyle any?
What I would do, since this seems to be of great need and value to you right now and if something
happened today, your family would be so happy you got it…is to enroll in this…this as far as you know is
the best deal right now…the only one on the table…that way you have it in place for your family. Then, if
you ever find something else you think is better…run it by us first to make sure, and if it is, more power

POWER PHRASES
• Bill and Mary, I’ve walked into your home as a stranger. Whether you participate in
additional plans or not, I’m walking out a friend.
• If you give me 1% of your confidence, I’ll earn the other 99%.
• For union members What we really have here is the union Plan for the union man...and
his family.
• For ChildSafe This is a two-part program. The first part protects your kids when
something happens to them, and the second part protects your kids when something
happens to you.
• Only two really bad things happen to us in life that we can’t control. Either we die too soon
or we live too long.
• Now, Bill, if you were taken out prematurely, I know you would not object to having some
extra money for Mary and the children, would you?
• As I said before, if I can’t help you, I’m sure not going to hurt you.
• The only regret you’ll have about this in years ahead is simply that you don’t have more.
• The future belongs to those who prepare for today.
• INCOME...most members feel they’re not going to miss $1 a day, but if they die their
family will sure miss their income.
• FUNERAL BENEFIT...most members feel it is a lot easier coming up with a few dollars a
week now versus having to come up with thousands of dollars later
• You can choose to be concerned about this today OR be forced to be concerned in the
future.
• There is a cost of doing something and a cost of doing nothing…but the cost of doing
nothing is always greater than the cost of doing something.
• It’s better to have it and not need it, than need it and not have it.
• You don’t buy this program because you’re going to die. You buy this program because
someone else has to go on living.
• If every wife knew what every widow knows, every husband would have more life
insurance.
• Most people I see want their wife and kids to be able to live in the same home, have the
same friends, and be able to go to the same schools whether they live or die.
• You say, “I don’t need it.” With all respect, I ask you, Could you change the ‘I’ to ‘we’ and
still make that statement?
• Every seventeen minutes someone buys life insurance who will not live to pay the second
premium.
• There’s a 1 in 1,685 chance that you’ll file a claim on your car insurance and the odds of
claiming on your homeowners insurance is 1 in 2,766. There’s a 100% chance you’ll use
this program because those are your odds of needing it one day.

_____WHAT COMES NEXT Obviously with these benefits you are conditionally covered from the moment our
call ends, so the first bank draft happens immediately within 24-48 hours of the application. Your bank may
not reflect the draft for up to 10 days, so please ensure the funds stay in there in order to ensure your
coverage. Your first premium is $________ (explain policy fee if applicable). Items we need to complete the
application process. (1) Driver’s license (2) Doctor’s information (3) Any Meds taken (4) Checkbook or Bank
Information (Routing / Account Numbers)
_____ HEALTH RISKS At some point in everyone’s life they become uninsurable and would be declined for
insurance. This is usually due to either age, health, or habits. Once you are uninsurable you typically can’t get
insurance again. If you are approved, there are three possible outcomes. First, you could be approved standard
due to having minor or no health issues. The second option is that that we can fall somewhere in between perfect
health and the uninsurable line. Because the groups we work with want everyone to be approved, they created a
category called “Special Risk” where the program would be a few dollars more per month. In this category, you
would pay exactly what someone else would pay for the same health profile. Obviously, the closer you are to the
uninsurable line, the more the program would be. Think of this like car insurance—someone with a perfect driving
record wouldn’t pay the same as someone that had a lot of speeding tickets. The third option is the counter offer.
They make this offer for someone that they may not have covered in the past, as a last chance to get covered. If the
program comes back different than what we discussed, I will call you and let you know. If that happened, would the
few extra dollars be a problem for you?
