Life Insurance Settlements: Benefitting Your Client… and You! – CE(1) #381032
500,000 seniors a year will lapse their life insurance policies, and 2 million will surrender their policies – every year. Why do you care? Because these could be your Medicare clients, Small Group business owners, large group managers, parents or grandparents of your individual clients – and you can help them in a unique way – and increase your revenue as well. You do not need to be a life insurance expert, or even write life insurance, to benefit your clients…and you too. Learn how life insurance settlements work, and why this market will grow in the future.
