MDRT is money or commission based. It measures how much commission they squeezed out of the products. Which are the products that are considered cash cows to the agents? of course whole life and endowment and all other high commission products.Are all these products suitable for the consumers? If the agents do a need analysis do you think these will be recommended?<BR/>The agents don't do need analysis. Just push the products. Just think of the best way to sell more of them. Just like ntuc agents thought of the 'buy one get free' to boost their earning. Buy revosave to pay for vivolife. It is killing 2 birds with one stone. Ii is hitting the customers twice without him or her knowing it.Ethical or not is not the issue. The issue is how to get to MDRT fast.<BR/>Product pushing is still the best and only way to qualify for mdrt.<BR/>So what do you think of these qualifiers?<BR/><BR/>Ah MengAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
