We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Stephanie Leandre. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Stephanie below.
Stephanie, looking forward to hearing all of your stories today. So let’s jump to your mission – what’s the backstory behind how you developed the mission that drives your brand?
My journey to life insurance started when my father suddenly passed when I was 5 years old. Leaving my mother with 3 kids under 5. My father was really young when he passed (late 30’s) and he was the breadwinner for our family. My mother was a homemaker and had to figure out life after my father’s passing. My church at the time was very supportive. They buried my father since he did not have a policy and no savings. My mom had to look for a job, learn how to drive, and become the breadwinner for our family. I saw the difficulties she went through and how things changed after my father’s passing. As time went by I realized many families do not understand the importance of having a policy in place for there love ones. My mission is to educate families on the importance of making sure their family does not struggle financially when they are gone. I also want to educate families on the living benefits within a policy such as medical benefits so families don’t have to struggle to pay medical bills and/or file for bankruptcy.
Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers.
My name is Stephanie Leandre and I am a FL native. I was born and raised in South Florida. I got into this industry because of the passing of my father at an early age. I knew I always wanted to help people. In the beginning I thought I can only help people from a healthcare capacity but I realize my niche was education. I love educating people on the importance of having the right policy in place, the living benefits within a policy, and making sure your family is financially secure. All my consultations are free and I never charge anyone for anything. My goal is to educate families with dependent children to make sure what happened to me doesn’t happen to them. I am proud of being able to get to the point where I am and hope to grow from here. I want everyone to know that once you work with me we become family. I care for whatever you care for. We are locked in.
Any thoughts, advice, or strategies you can share for fostering brand loyalty?
I keep in touch with clients through calls, text messages, and social media. I check in on my clients every once in a while to see how things are going and how I can support them. I have many clients who are small business owners themselves and I purchase products from them. When I tell you we become family its the truth.
Have any books or other resources had a big impact on you?
The books that have impacted my Entrepreneurial thinking are the 10x rule by Grant Cardone, The Seven Habits of highly effective people by Stephen Covey, and Atomic Habits by James Clear
