Are Neighbors good prospects for LIC agent?

We have seen that most of the time newly recruited agents in LIC feel shy to tell his neighbors that he is an insurance agent; he feels that it will degrade his image in their eyes. But this thinking is totally wrong. Everybody feels the requirement of life insurance at some point of time and if you wouldn’t have told your neighbor that you are an insurance agent then how would he know that you could help him.

So, it is very important to market yourself and your product, otherwise you will not be able to grow in this insurance industry.
