Why Insurance Brokers need the internet?

When selling schemes Brokers need to reach the widest possible audience – at the lowest cost. To protect your business you will ideally do this under your own brand so as to retain control over your customers.

This means extending your reach via the internet – either directly to your customer or through affiliates; brokers, agents or other third parties.

Direct insurers and price comparison web sites are creating a new form of competition for Brokers and brokers must respond. They also add to an environment in which individuals and businesses increasingly use the internet for information and to trade, looking for the best policy and price at a time and place convenient to them.

You don’t need a website – you need an internet strategy!

If you want your schemes to reach the widest possible audience, capture sales, retain business and reduce administrative costs, your internet strategy must:

Promote your own brand
Generate Leads
Gather lead and customer information.
Quote and sell policies online.
Allow your customers to do self-administration.
Communicate with existing and potential customers.
Offer affiliates the ability to market, sell and administer your schemes.
Automate your back office process.
