Medicare and Smart go Together

Brett Henry

AEP/ OE is just around the corner, and there is no better opportunity to present and bundle with Smart Cremation. 

Statistically, death is 100%. That’s no Joke. 

Funerals could cost upwards of $20,000. That does not even include transportation. So, if anyone dies out of state, the average cost of transportation is $10,000 and out of the country average cost is $20,000. Add that to the initial cost and a traditional Funeral could be $ 40-50,000.

Making Financial decisions while grieving is never a good situation. Overspending because of emotions is commonplace.

Now is an excellent opportunity to explain why people in Florida love Smart Cremation. Its affordable, flexible, offers relocation protection, and much more. Its peace of mind knowing they and their families can grieve without the worries or financial struggles. For example: Some people have life insurance and expect the beneficiaries to take on the burden when they pass. If someone had 4 children with a $100,000 life policy, those 4 would be expected to receive $25,000 each. But because the deceased choose a funeral, they most likely will divide $75,000 or less. They were denied a great portion of there inheritance. The solution is a SMART plan for $35 a month that is inflation proof and covers you around the world. Your Medicare clients and prospects are perfect for this sale.

Here are some tips on how to bundle with a win-win sale.

1) Host an event. Partner up with other agents or Retail Managers and host an event. Send an announcement like a luncheon or dinner. People love a free lunch and many of our agents have been very successful with the luncheons.

2) Review the comparison chart – Burial VS Cremation. Make it easy for the consumer to understand and see why cremation is the best option. Tell them why 79% of Floridians choose cremation. Download Comparison Chart.

3) Whether your current or new client is shopping for health, Medicare or life insurance, putting together a bundle package is extremely profitable. Adding to your bottom line just in one sale, equals more money for you. Who doesn’t love to get the most for their money?

4) Another point you can mention, during a presentation regarding Medicare, is how Medicare doesn’t cover burials. Just add the cremation segment into your presentation. You never know until you ask. You don’t ask, you don’t get!

Take advantage now. Perfect opportunity. Plus, we have two fantastic bonuses for August and September, not to mention you getting Compass Rewards points too.
