For annuity and retirement income advisors

Pay for retirement appointments that show up.

We run the ads, send the prospect a short annuity explainer, verify on the phone that they clear the asset minimum we set with you, and book them onto your calendar. You pay per held appointment. A no-show is replaced, not billed.

Illustration only. The outputs are arithmetic on the numbers you enter, not a projection of your results or a promise of any commission, close rate, or case size. Actual results depend on your market, your licensing, your close rate, and the products you sell. Advisory fees apply only to advisors licensed to charge them, on assets the client chooses to place under management. Slate books appointments and does not sell or recommend insurance products.

The same numbers, at every close rate

If you close 1 in 4, or 1 in 20.

Appointments cost $20,000 a month on every row, already taken out of both keep columns. You break even at a 5.7% close rate, about 1 in 18. Every close rate above that pays.
