That&#8217;s the gist of a seminar for agents on June 3-5 in Cleveland, sponsored by LTC Financial Partners LLC. The Deficit Reduction Act of 2005, signed by President Bush on February 8, offers carrot-and-stick motivation for 77 million retiring baby boomers, and others, to buy long term care insurance rather than rely on Medicaid. &#8220;We&#8217;re expecting a flood of inquiries and applications,&#8221; says Cameron Truesdell, CEO of LTC Financial Partners. &#8220;But agents will miss out unless they adopt new methods.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/mediaboom\/CameronTruesdell_72dpi.jpg\" align=\"left\" hspace=\"15\" lowsrc=\"https:\/\/www.send2press.com\/wire\/images\/CameronTruesdell_72dpi.jpg\">The methods to be offered by the seminar focus on a shift from one-on-one sales to &#8220;multi-life&#8221; sales through companies, associations, and other groups. &#8220;Agents need to learn how to engage business owners, human resource managers, association directors, and others, to enroll many people at one time,&#8221; says Truesdell. The seminar will also offer guidelines on alliance marketing: working with accountants, financial advisors, bankers and others to reach large numbers through trusted parties.<\/p>\n<p> &#8220;Some of the nation&#8217;s top producers will be speaking,&#8221; says Truesdell. &#8220;They&#8217;ll be sharing their secrets for managing the new business in the new way.&#8221; Participants will also learn how to leverage the same support infrastructure used by the sales leaders:<\/p>\n<ul> \t* Centralized marketing and public relations support, <\/p>\n<p> \t* Automatic production of brochures, direct mail, and web communications, <\/p>\n<p> \t* Statistical support for cost control and profit maximization. <\/ul>\n<p> Marketing advice will also be offered by leading long term care insurance carriers: John Hancock, Penn Treaty, and Prudential.<\/p>\n<p> Agents may apply to attend by calling Kim Galatolo at 866-471-4072 or by submitting an application at &#8212; www.eranova.com\/LTCFP\/seminar.htm <\/p>\n<p> There is no cost for active agents. The event will be held at the Hilton Garden Inn in downtown Cleveland. <\/p>\n<p>News issued by: LTC Financial Partners LLC<\/p>\n<p> # # # <\/p>\n<p><small>Original Story ID:  (1673) :: 2006-05-0525-001<\/small><\/p>\n<p><small>Original Keywords: Cleveland, Ohio, Seminar, LTC, long term care, LTCi, insurance, career, The Deficit Reduction Act of 2005, Centralized marketing and public relations support, franchise, Cameron Truesdell LTC Financial Partners LLC   <\/small><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CLEVELAND, OH &#8211; May 25 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) &#8212; Thanks to incentives from Washington, tens of millions of Americans will seek long term care insurance, but agents aren&#8217;t prepared.
