What is your employment back up plan? [1]
I managed to spent time today, reading few news in the Star Newspaper I bought on Saturday, 30th May 2015.
One of the news was MAS (Malaysia Airlines System), a local airlines company will be firing 6,000 (VSS) of its current employees. To me 6,000 is not a small amount in number.
I pity those who will & already listed to receive this bad news. However, as long as we are named as an employee of any companies, the risk is always there (to be fired or sack by the company) during their tough times.
Before I involve in this insurance business, I used to be listed for termination with my first local company. I faced a sudden discontinue contract situation with a multinational company when I was under employment abroad. Under another asia-based multinational company, I was fired right after 1 month contract period.
Nothing is guaranteed in this world of employment. I taste the bitterness of it. I feel shaky situation with my wife & daughter around. And what make it worse was, I had no back up plan at all in my mind.
But an unemployed situation has taught me a lot.
I have to had a back up plan. The plan must be ready if the same bad things happen to me again (and again maybe).
Do you ever think if VSS happen to you, what is your back up plan???

Open Case [the longest presentation]
Alhamdulillah...
Yesterday, I had a very good appointment with a very good prospect at 9am in the morning.
Never in the history of my insurance presentation (explanation to potential client), i used 4 pieces of paper & almost 8 pages of it with my hand sketch presentation. This will be my personal record of longest on-paper presentation.
I thought he would come alone, but luckily he was accompanied by his wife.
It was a presentation for 2 person instead of 1 as I presumed earlier. It took around 2 hours time.
Open Case Result:-
I have yet to close this case.
Well that was a typical challenge for an insurance agent.
Sometimes, patience always bring us nearer to a victory!

Tanya Kabar - Melawat - Temujanji [1]
The Presiden of my resident association in Taman Puteri Subang was warded due to stone kidney few weeks back. I managed to spend my time visiting him in Tropicana Medical Centre, Kota Damansara.
Due to no cheaper room available, he was located in suite room. It cost him RM700 per night (luckily his company will pay the bill).
My intention was just visiting a sick friend/neighbour at first. In Malay we call it as Tanya Kabar untuk Melawat. It ended up differently when an appointment managed to be set for further Prudential Takaful explanation.
He did asked me question before I left the hospital;
"I am not having any personal life insurance, would you explain further to me later because I think it is a good thing..."
Well, Alhamdulillah...
Tanya Kabar & Melawat had become an insurance appointment finally.
Tanya Kabar - Melawat - Temujanji.
Sometimes, life insurance business has a suprising result!
