How to use estate planning to grow your business Most consumers don’t know they can create a legal will at no additional cost. Here’s how to bring it up.

Include it in your sales scripts. Share this valuable perk with all eligible new clients.

Improve retention by supporting them through more life needs. For customers who are going to lapse, use estate planning as a differentiator to ensure they feel supported through multiple life events.

Re-engage someone who got a decision but didn’t activate a policy. Use estate planning as another reason to reach out and ultimately convert these customers.

Reach out to policyholders with expiring terms. If someone’s term is close to expiring, give them a reason to renew by creating a legal will and trust. Provide support for major life events. Use major life events, like buying a house or having a child, to pitch the combination of life insurance and estate planning.

Get referrals from existing policyholders. Ask existing policyholders with access to Ethos estate planning tools if they can refer friends and family.

Questions to ask about estate planning

You know how to sell life insurance. Here are some conversation starters for estate planning.

Have you created or updated a will or trust in the last three years?

Beyond a will, have you thought about other important estate planning products?

Living trust Do you want to provide all of your assets as a lump sum to your heirs when you pass away, or do you want some assets to be for specific things (like college) or distributed over time? Medical consent Have you written down your wishes in case you become medically incapacitated? Power of attorney Have you and your spouse created a power of attorney agreement to allow someone to make decisions on your behalf in case you aren’t around or are incapacitated?

Don’t have a will or trust? We recommend everyone have a will at minimum because it allows you to decide who’ll receive what you own when you pass away. It also designates guardians for your children should you pass away when they’re minors. If you don't have a will in place, the state you reside in will determine how your property is divided and who takes care of your children. Already created one? We recommend that our customers update their will after any major life event—large purchase, dependents turning 18, the birth of a child—or every three years, whichever comes first.
