We personally have done 2 day bootcamps to teach aspects of insurance marketing as well as consulting calls to help through the process. Others are doing webinars, half day or full day events.

You know you need to do more marketing within your insurance agency but you have probably figured out that it takes the right person (or people) to run marketing effectively within an insurance agency. We have seen marketing people come and go as well as the frustrations agency owners go through when trying to find someone who can just do the job the way it is supposed to be down.
We have seen this struggle and wanted to create something that agency owners could lean on to ensure they are hiring the right person from the beginning.
In this article, we are going to break down the 5 different ways of hiring an insurance marketing person for your agency and will discuss the pros and cons of each method. We will also provide tips to help you decide which method of will work best for you.
There has been a lot of talk lately about the damage technology is doing or may do to the independent insurance agent. How technology is changing the job of an agent and has the potential to put agents out of business. I have always looked at technology as a way to strengthen what the independent agent is doing.
One magnificent use for technology is to generate leads.
Buyers who traditionally would find a local agent, are going online and searching for an agent who can best handle their needs and not necessarily someone who is local.
In this article, we are going to discuss the best way to generate insurance leads online for your agency.
Many agents are getting on board with insurance digital marketing. Agencies are purchasing new websites, joining social media sites, blogging and creating videos. Everything that has been getting pounded into their faces for the past few years.
Unfortunately, during this time of "you have to do it" experts have encouraged agents to get on board but many have not told agents exactly what they should be doing which has left agents with all these new sites but no new business opportunities.
We've been there. We went from "we have all this stuff now what do we do with it?" to people asking us what we are doing to get these hundreds of leads.
This blog post will discuss all the things we WISH we would have known to start off strong. Hopefully it will save you the early struggles we had.
