Digital Agent

Monday, March 26th, 2007

The digital agent system is not a place to buy leads, but rather a system of generating and using leads, and of selling from your office without having to visit with prospects. In other words, it develops the idea of using the tools available to you - fax, computer, telephone to make sales without having to set personal appointments with clients.

I think the Digital Agent system is very valid - and yes, I have purchased a copy. Mark - the developer - will follow up with personal phone calls and even his IM and email so you can get help when you need it. He certainly wants everybody to feel statisfied with their purchase.

He concentrates on life insurance, but I think the system can be applied to health insurance and other products. He also concentrates on developing your existing customer base. Learn more about digitial agent here.

Life Insurance Calculator

Wednesday, March 14th, 2007

As an insurance agent, one of the most frequent questions I got was about the amount of life insurance a client should buy. Most of my clients had no idea how much to buy! Of course I always had to balance an ideal amount with the monthly premium that a family could afford. If the premium was too high, I knew they’d end up letting the policy lapse.

Here’s the Quick Online Insurance Need’s Estimator! 

Feel free to play around with it. Consumers can use it to begin analyzing their needs. Agents can use it to help clients see some factors that go into their benefit calculation.

Enjoy!

Free Leads Promotion - Click Here

Quotes Auction provides a very flexible pricing and quote request system. Insurance leads prices are very competitive, and they allow agents to choose specific filters based on area, risk, age, etc. that will increase or decrease the price of the leads. They pride themselves on quality control, and I know from working with one of their sites, they will credit bogus leads that get through. 

At the end of the leads process, the consumer is actually informed that they will be contacted by an insurance agent, so that should help eliminate the misuderstandings that we may find with online consumers.

They also have a partner site that “clears” out unsold leads at bargain prices, so it may be a good opportunity to pick up some gems that other agents have missed or were not signed up for.

At the time of this post, QuotesAuction will start a qualified insurance agent off with $200 worth of free leads to try out their service.

Home Town Quotes

Home Town Quotes

I think Home Town Quotes is always available for customer service, and they also provide services to agents beyond just providing leads. They also provide a wide range of insurance quotes. Beyond the usual individual health, life, auto, homeowners, and long term care, Home Town Quotes provides insurance leads on annuities, group health, disability, and renters insurance.

Since Home Town Quotes was started by insurance agents, they understand the issues that we may have faced with lead companies in the past, and to work to remedy these problems with their service. This service is a little newer and smaller than some of the other lead companies, but I believe they really have that “#2 try harder!” attitude! One of the things I really like about this company is that they provide a free monthly newsletter for all of their agents which is packed with tips on growing business and the best way to really squeeze every last commission dollar out of your internet leads investment!
