Using Life Insurance For Your Client’s Smart Money

Using Life Insurance For Your Client’s Smart Money

Smart money is money your clients want to control and be able to access during times of need. Permanent life insurance can immediately leverage a single premium into a larger death benefit. The smart money concept is an opportunity for you to show your clients the value of death benefit protection along with the potential to build cash value growth while preserving access to as much cash value as possible.
