Nexpro Solutions Co. • March 26, 2025

Master the Art of Selling Trucking Policies and Watch Your Numbers Skyrocket

A man is holding a stack of money in his hand.

Selling commercial trucking insurance isn’t like selling personal auto or home policies. It takes skill, strategy, and the right training to consistently write hundreds of thousands in premium every month. If you’re struggling to close deals or scale your book of business, you’re probably missing a real sales process.


That’s where we come in.

At NexPro Solutions we don’t just teach you how to sell—we provide the highest-quality leads so you can put your skills to work immediately. Most of our leads come directly from our website, just like the one you’re reading now. We generate thousands of leads every month, and our agents are out there closing deals daily.


So, if you’re ready to level up your sales game, here are 10 sales tips that will help you start closing more trucking policies and scaling your premium to six figures a month.


1. Talk Like a Trucker, Not Like a Salesman

Truckers don’t care how professional you sound—they care if you understand their business. Drop the stiff sales talk and have a real conversation. Relate to their struggles, whether it’s rising insurance rates, DOT regulations, or keeping their fleet on the road.

🚫 Don’t say: “Hello, sir. I’d like to discuss your insurance policy.”
✅ Say: “Hey man, I know you’re busy—who’s handling your insurance right now?”


2. Be Straightforward—They Hate the Runaround

Truckers don’t have time for games. They’re moving freight, running a business, and don’t want to be “sold to.” Get straight to the point and tell them what you can do.


3. Ask Smart Questions That Keep Them Talking

The more they talk, the more you learn about their pain points. Ask questions like:
🔹 “How’s your current insurance treating you?”
🔹 “Are you happy with what you’re paying?”
🔹 “If I could save you money, would you be open to looking at something better?”


4. Use Reverse Psychology—Let Them Feel in Control

Instead of pushing them to buy, give them the power to decide.

🚫 Don’t say: “You need to switch now before rates go up.”
✅ Say: “I don’t know if this will be a fit for you, but I’ll lay it all out, and you can decide.”

This lowers their defenses and makes them more likely to say yes.


5. Follow Up Like a Boss—Most Agents Don’t

Most sales don’t happen on the first call. Follow up multiple times until they’re ready to make a move. Many agents fail because they give up too soon. Be persistent. Fortune is in the follow-up.


6. Sell the Savings, Not Just the Policy

Truckers don’t wake up excited to buy insurance. But they do care about saving money and protecting their business. Focus on how your policy helps them keep more cash in their pocket and stay compliant.


7. Close With Confidence—Don’t Sound Unsure

When it’s time to seal the deal, be firm and confident. If you hesitate, they’ll hesitate. Truckers respect someone who knows their stuff and isn’t afraid to make recommendations.


8. Be an Expert in Commercial Trucking Coverage

Know your product inside and out. Learn about:
✔ Auto liability
✔ Motor truck cargo
✔ Physical damage
✔ Non-trucking liability
✔ Workers' comp for trucking companies

The more you know, the more authority you have in the conversation.


9. Use High-Quality Leads—Not Garbage Lists

Most agents struggle because they waste time on low-quality leads that are recycled and outdated. Our leads are fresh, targeted, and exclusive—so you’re only talking to serious prospects.


10. Invest in Sales Training—It Pays for Itself

The best agents train constantly to improve their closing skills. If you want to write $100K+ in premium per month, you need serious training that teaches you:
🔥 How to cold call the right way
🔥 How to handle objections
🔥 How to sell like a pro and
