    nervous!

    Hey, everyone. Tonight, I have my first four appointments to talk to people about the life insurance packages that we offer. I'm very nervous! But, excited, too. Anyway, I just wanted to ask that you all keep your fingers crossed. Not for me to sell some policies, just for me to present well, and, to make a good impression. I'll post later when I get home tonight......

    Thank you so much for telling me that! I think I will do really well, it's just getting past that initial week or two. Maybe even just one night will help me get rid of these jitters. I'm seeing four people! Eek.

    Well, I spent two and a half hours with two girls tonight, talking about everything. I didn't sell anything to them, but, they gave me a ton of referrals, and, were so awesome. I had such a good time. One of them left saying "you've got a customer", but, she just wants to get her whole family together with me, and, get her kids some life insurance. It will end up being a productive night, but, for now, I'm just taking it as a practice session.

    Kari, I'm sure you did fantastic! You have a great personality and present yourself well...at least in your posts you do!! And if you do that well in writing, I'm sure it's 100% better in person!!

    Good luck! Keep at it!

    Oh, man, that is such a cool thing for you to say. I think I'm becoming like him! Living life day to day, and, always smiling, not too bad. Thanks again, I hope I get to go out tomorrow night, too.

    Even though you didn't do any selling, I'm glad to hear that it all went well

    a lot of a sales job is connecting with people. Sounds to me that you did just that. We knew you could do it!

    Congratulations on a good start!

    Thank you everyone. Your thoughts helped me knock on the door last night, as I was nervous! It was a nice area, though, I didn't feel scared. But, I will be buying a pepper spray keychain soon. I know when I was training, we went into some creepy areas. I'm hoping to be able to take some self defense classes before too long, too. Just to be on the safe side.
