"Why do P&C Insurance Agents Need an Online Market Platform? Today’s property and casualty insurance industry is competitive. If agents aren’t growing their book of business, they are falling behind. In order to increase customer acquisition and retention, agents need the right tools to efficiently handle the dynamic risk profiles of customers and carrier appetites. Customers love convenience -- and so do you. By having an online business platform that integrates brand-quoting engines, you and your clients will have easy access to research insurance options and discover relevant information regarding those choices.

• It’s not just about the Markets – You need Product Selection too

Market access is huge as an independent insurance agent. If you don’t have a large access to markets, you won’t be able to provide as many quotes to your customers. But offering several markets is just the ticket into the game. If you don’t have access to other products like Toys, or classic cars, or even Event or Pet insurance, you’re just pushing your client into the hands of another agent. Get in the game and start with a full P&C offering. You can no longer stay on the side line and tell your customer “no sorry I don’t carry that”. Get ahead by meeting their needs and exceeding their expectations.

• Wow – The Customer Loves it

A bigger portion of customer satisfaction in the shopping experience is derived from the complete fulfillment factor—that euphoria of finding everything in one simplified experience. Retail kings fulfill this need by offering an expansive array of merchandise. With the right digital distribution platform, agents can now do the same, bundling their products with those from other insurers to meet the complete needs of the customer. A leading platform even goes a step further, alerting the agent to potential coverage the consumer may need to mitigate hidden risk, in the end improving their effectiveness in customer acquisition and retention. It’s all about fulfilling customer needs in a way that boosts satisfaction and encourages long-term loyalty.

• Bring on the Technology

Automating the buying experience is a big gain for the Agent and the customer. The platform needs to connect easily to back-end systems, giving agents the ability to enter information once, as well as the customer-pleasing power of prefill capabilities that auto-completes application fields based on basic information from the consumer. Prefill capabilities and automation alone have been responsible for cutting agency costs and reducing time spent on administrative tasks. You need Efficiency and Effectiveness.
