Recruiting Corner
We're so proud of all of our clients but there is one client that is heeding the latest cry of politicians and great sales people everywhere: "Never miss a crisis!" They've hired Gg to do quick economic updates for each of the cities where they have agencies. In addition to the reports, they're partnering with Gg to hold conference calls with each of the management teams to be sure everyone understands the local opportunities from a recruiting, prospecting and client relationship perspective. All agree, this is time, money and energy well spent!

In this season for celebrating mother's and families, I'd like to share a prayer I say often with my children and send it out to all of the families in the world:
May you feel protected and safe;
May your heart be contented and pleased;
May your mind be quick and strong;
May your body serve you well.
May your life unfold with ease.
(Trish & Sebastien's adaptation of the Metta Prayer.) |

GAMA LAMP 2009 - Your Take-Aways
It was so great to see see so many old friends and clients at LAMP and meet many new ones too!
Like you, we've been very busy since LAMP but before too much time passed, we wanted to follow up on Harry Hoopis's suggestion from the main platform to pick three ideas to take back and implement. We heard you liked the following:
- The women's market. You're glad it's now viewed as a major market and not a sidebar. More specifically, you liked the GenderSmart presentation by Jane Sanders. FYI - Another important announcement tied to the women's market was Prudential's sponsorship of a video in collaboration with WIFS & GAMA that will be an outstanding recruiting tool for companies interested in recruiting more women to the industry. Also acknowledged were two Mass Mutual associates who are the first recipients of the WomenCertified Vision Award given by Medelia, Inc.
- Visiting your favorite vendors. Some of the ones you mentioned were Gail Goodman, Bill Cates, Mickey Straub, Richard Weylman, and yes, The Gallagher Group. (We loved seeing you too!)
Another highly praised vendor presentation was on the topic of using social media tools from Edulence.
- Motivational presentations. One of the biggest draws of LAMP is always the wonderful array of inspirational speakers. Some of the ones you noted were Mary Lou Retton's high-spirited talk on "The Competitive Edge" and Joe Jordan's animated presentation, "Choose to be a Hero."
See you at next year's LAMP Conference in Las Vegas - March 21 - 24th!
Below, Gg's Michele Gallagher and Trisha Gallagher Boisvert catch up with friends, Lily Fong and Sylvester Thomas. Not pictured, Gg's Mark Murphy who was also on hand to meet with clients and prospects.

Market Corner: Create YOUR Market!
Our new program that helps new agents identify and commit to a new market, got lots of great interest at LAMP. We have titled this program, "Create YOUR Market!"* It's designed to help solve the "no natural market" phenomenon--and we know you've come across an agent with that obstacle once or twice in your career! As a bonus to our offer, participants who successfully complete the 8-week program will receive a complimentary copy of Sabine Robinson's book: "Quick! The Cement is Drying--101 Bits of Wisdom to Jump Start Your Financial Services Career." For more information on the CYM process, click on the following link Create YOUR Market! or call Trisha @ 978-834-0623; or trisha@thegallaghergroup.net.
*The Create YOUR Market program was briefly referred to at LAMP as the "Discover Your Market" program but we quickly realized it was too close to other different, but similar-sounding, home-office based initiatives so we've changed the name. | |
