The Need
With most clients, there is no arguing when it comes to life insurance. Most responsible adults with spouses and or children understand the importance of life insurance and maybe even disability insurance. However, the time devoted to implementing insurance planning is the best minimal. It’s just human nature. No one wants to think about death or disability.
Life insurance is a unique financial and risk management product, but over 100 million adult Americans still live without it.1 The flexibility that life insurance can provide is often misunderstood. Some think it’s designed Term Insurance simply to pay for funerals while others believe it is overly complex. That’s why it’s critical for you, an insurance industry professional, to understand and demonstrate the value of life insurance and how it can work in many different situations.

The Insurance Planning Process
