Using the Veterans Aid and Attendance Benefit

to Find New Clients or Customers

Because veterans are so anxious to find out about their benefits, your educating them on this little known income program -- that could produce as much as $1,949 a month in additional income -- will have veterans or their surviving spouses or their children calling you on the phone.

Very Few People Have Heard About the Veterans Aid and Attendance Benefit

Roughly 40% of all seniors are veterans or surviving spouses and the National Care Planning Council estimates at least 33% of all seniors -- over 11 million of them -- could qualify for the aid and attendance benefit under the right circumstances.

Over 11 Million Potential Clients

A Huge Marketing Opportunity

• Whether they get the benefit or not, by making them aware of this valuable income, you will acquire new business from veterans' children or directly from veterans themselves.

• This is a huge marketing opportunity for you and allows you to get in front of people and acquire tons of new clients in a way that is easy, fun and highly rewarding; using an entirely new approach that your competitors are not aware of.

• It's easy to get people to sign up for an appointment. You'll have plenty of people to talk to. The big problem is finding enough time in the day to help those who could benefit from your services or product.

Veterans Benefits Consultant Package

Training Portion of the Package

The training portion of the consultants package consists of 3 books and a resource binder to instruct you how to get started, how to keep compliant with rules and regulations, how to use our marketing materials and how to implement a number of unique business strategies. We also provide a number of one-on-one phone consultations, as needed, to round out your training. Here are the 3 books…

"Operations Manual for the Veterans Benefits Consultants Package"

260 pages. This manual is to be used hand-in-hand with the aid and attendance handbook and possibly the Medicaid secrets book to provide the necessary training for you to organize and manage your consulting practice.

Many of the strategies and ideas in this book will allow you to provide services that your competitors do not provide. This allows you to offer unique services that will have members of the community coming to you for help. The book also contains a number of marketing ideas and strategies to help you attract more clients and customers to your business.

"Aid and Attendance Handbook for Professionals and Consultants"

Software Included. 782 pages. This is your training manual. Please read the applicable sections in this book so that you can provide reliable information to your clients. If you are not an attorney, do not provide any detailed instructions about applying for the benefit. On the other hand, informing your clients about what is necessary for a successful claim is, in our opinion, not becoming involved in the claims process. The bulk of the Handbook is devoted to the aid and attendance benefit.

After reading the first 12 chapters in the book, you should have a good understanding of how the claims process for Pension or Death Pension works. We provide Medicaid planning strategies as well as several case studies to help you understand how to help your clients meet the asset test and how a typical claim unfolds. Finally, the book comes with software that helps you estimate the Pension income before and after asset transfers or conversions.

257 pages. If you are not familiar with Medicaid rules since the Deficit Reduction Act, you need to read this book

"Medicaid Secrets" Written by Gabriel Heiser

by Elder Law Attorney Gabriel Heiser. This book will give you a better understanding of how to advise your clients on what could happen if they need to apply for Medicaid.

Quoting the article --"Steinberg’s business is so good that her community-service outreach has become her sole prospecting method." ‘I don’t buy lead cards, names or mailing lists,” she says. . . . “Our phone rings off the hook all day.’"

Texas Elder Law Attorney

Richard Barron – an Elder Law Attorney in the Dallas, Texas area – reports outstanding results using our consultants marketing package to acquire new clients.

According to Barron,"I was hesitant at first since I just invested in a new law firm web site, but I was so pleased with the personal service and professional design of the Veteran’s Website plus all of the additional marketing material provided with the Veterans Consultants Package, coupled with the reasonable cost, I could not pass it up. I was right. I have received over 50 leads in just the first two months and the web site ranks high in the search engines, thanks to the optimization already done and tested. Is it worth the price? Without a doubt…I would highly recommend this system, if you want to expand into the VeteransBenefits or are already providing thisservice. This system will not let you down!"
