Inside Volume 1

What You Will Learn from How Much Is Enough

A step-by-step walkthrough of the complete needs analysis conversation, from the income principle to the coverage gap calculation and the close.

Why Income Is the Foundation

The two sources of income, you at work and your dollars at work, and why every financial planning conversation must start here. A principle no client can argue with.

The Three Hazards Every Client Faces

Old age, disability and premature death and exactly how to present these in a way that is clear, honest and impossible to dismiss. The foundation of the needs case.

Conducting the Full Client Fact-Find

Watch a complete live fact-find: assets, liabilities, family obligations, income and existing cover. Learn the questions to ask and how to record the picture accurately.

Calculating the Needs and the Gap

How to quantify debts, income replacement, education funding, estate creation and last expenses into a total needs figure and present the coverage gap in a way that motivates action.

Presenting the Case and Closing

How to move from the gap calculation to the close naturally, using the client's own answers. The language, the logic and the question that opens the door to the solution.

First in a Growing Series

This volume on needs analysis is the first in the Carlyle Fletcher Global Academy series. Upcoming topics include interpreting financial statements, retirement planning and business insurance. See the four Academy learning pillars

A Glimpse Inside the Conversation

In the opening minutes, Carlyle sets out the single principle that underpins every insurance sale. Watch the free preview to see how it works.

“Income is the most important thing in our economic life. And income, as far as we know it, can come from only two sources: one is you at work, and the other is your dollars at work.”

This opening principle sets up the entire conversation that follows, a complete, live needs analysis demonstration in which Carlyle walks through a client fact-find, calculates a total need of over two million dollars against an existing cover of five hundred thousand, and presents the gap in a way the client cannot ignore.

Every step is shown in full. No theory. No shortcuts. Just the conversation, done right.
