4. Farmers Need Disability Insurance • Farmers Harness the power of nature to make things grow. • This is a way of life that had long been the dominant occupation of human beings since the dawn of civilization. • There are approximately 3.1 million men and women who work on American’s 2.3 million farms and ranches. • According to Accident Facts published by the National Safety Council, farm accidents and other work-related health problems cause 120,000 injuries a year. The majority of agricultural work injuries (61%) occurred to the operator of the farm or a farm family member. Door Opening Questions: • How long could you make it without a paycheck, milk check or crop check? • Do you find it hard to live within your income? How would it be living without that income? • You can say, “I don’t need it,” but can you say, “My family won’t need it”? • If you save 10% of your income each year, one year of disability could wipe out 10 years of savings. • If you become hurt or sick and are unable to work, there are five sources of income for your family: relatives, friends, charity, liquidation of assets and insurance. Which would you prefer?

26. Door Opening Questions What would you consider your most valuable asset? This is a thought provoking question. To help your client to visually prioritize, take them through the “Your Priorities” sales concept. Another way to identify this is to multiply their current earnings by the number of years until retirement.

28. Door Opening Questions If you were to retire today, how long would your retirement last? Disability insurance is not retirement but in either case you stop working. With a disability this happens by chance not by choice. If your client could retire today they probably would. But what if they were forced to stop working? How would they be able to fund this “forced retirement?”

29. Door Opening Questions If you were sick or hurt and unable to work, how would you get paid? Use the terms “sick or hurt”. These terms are more relatable and you’ll find people will respond more favorably.
