#1. Proactive Communication
To make the most of your life insurance agent career, having brilliant communication skills is non-negotiable. You need to be direct and precise and show the right persuasion skills combined with sympathy for the customer. It is your sole job to explain and answer everything about life insurance clearly. And never show yourself as too eager to sell.
#2. Great Customer Service
Successful life insurance agents can project themselves as capable, trustworthy, and an expert in the field. Interpersonal skills and relationship building can take you a long way.  Remember, every client interaction is an opportunity to get word-of-mouth publicity. People will always remember and recommend you for being smart, reasonable, and stable.
#3. Taking care of your health
Maintaining your health is crucial, not only for personal well-being but also for sustaining performance and resilience in the demanding role of a life insurance agent.
Don’t take rejections or a poor month's performance personally. It is highly advisable to always have an emergency fund with you for the dry days. This will help you ease up when there’s not much happening while allowing you to bring focus on strategizing the next move and performing well.
