TOP GROUP & PERSONAL SALES

Congratulations to each of you who had a terrific personal week last week and to each of you who inspired your teams to do the same!

POWER UP YOUR SAMPLES WITH STOCK PHOTOS

Recently, Advisor Kelly Brady asked where she could find photos to make her samples come to life. The layouts and examples she had created — featuring various collections to show to customers — gave her a nice bump in sales, but she didn't have photos for some of them.

People love seeing Advisors' photos because they're personal and help them get to know you better, but of course, not everyone has photos to match every collection.

The great news is that if you don't have a baby or graduate in your life, haven't attended a recent wedding or visited a national park (you get the gist), you can still make beautiful samples with stock photos!

Here are some of the free resources the Home Office Team uses for photos:

Thanks for the question, Kelly!
