First ever Case!!!

Today is my first day of work!! Super duper gancheong and blur..

I didn't know it would be my start today.. cos Shanny (who's my manager, and my sis's best fren) said she wanted to train me in office instead of bringing me out.. But due to some reasons, i ended up in Pasir Ris doing Street Prospecting.. It's my first ever day in Prudential to get in touch with the public and talk to Strangers on the streets.. I was really very very scared at first and dare not approach anyone.. but Shanny was beside me.. helping me spot who has a "potential" face.. then i decided to pluck my courage to approach the first person.. i just dashed forward.. and talked crap with the person.. he did survey for me.. and we talked some craps.. then i got hold of his number and particulars..

I realised it's not as difficult as i thought cos there're really quite a number of ppl who will stop for you.. unlike what i've imagined.. but nevertheless.. i still feel quite nervous and kept contemplating if i should approach this particular person or not..

But after an hour or 2.. i decided to approach anyone i deem potential and dash forward to try.. then about 2 hours later.. i blocked the path of a man in his thirties and asked for his help for just 1 min.. then i suggested if we can sit down and talk and he actually agreed!! I was shocked and at the same time.. Delighted! Cos if the person is willing to sit down.. it means it a high chance of closing.. then Shanny, who wasn't with me at that instant, sprinted to my help.

I presented to the person.. and with Shanny's help, finally we closed hiM!! But he was so easy going that i was quite scared and i had a feeling he actually had the intention to just talk and know me.. And i didn't really know how to handle this.. luckily Shanny was with me all the while.. and helped me with my presentation.. cos i was unfamiliar with filling in the forms and what to do to close the case.. cos it's my first day!!!

Then the man gave me the first month's premium and rushed back home cos his family was waiting for him.. Everything was so rush. Then when he got home.. he called me.. telling me that he wanted to change the plan to become her daughter's instead of himself.. cos he feels that his daughter needs it more.. So we arranged to meet up again on Sunday.. and i hope everything will go smoothly then..

Happy but at the same time.. Keeping my fingers crossed that this case will go smoothly and be my first case successfully!!!

I gotta work doubly hard to familiarise myself with closing a case.. stopping a person is not a problem but the process of convincing the person is not easy.. I must jia you!!!
