Areas Of Insurance We Will Discuss Today
Insurers depend on captive and non-captive agents to sell life and P&C insurance to customers. Also known as brokers, the majority of any given book of business for an insurer will come from agents and retail locations.
Producer Management means Agency, Broker, and AdvisorManagement
Game Changers That Will Redefine Insurance
Insurers are looking to innovate more than ever
Technology has become mission critical
New Entrants to Insurance
• Regulations have changed and insurers have competition from other non-traditional channels (banks etc.)
• World ages, insurance has become a key part of financial planning• Customers expect a better experience
• To drive customer engagement and customer centricity across the channels• Millennial customers are using social media and technology research and buy insurance• Agents are using technology and social media to sell insurance
• Disrupt a structure that has existed unchanged for decades • Government, banks, and new technology firms are creating alternatives for insurance
Insurers need to embrace technology to attract and enable the best and brightest agents to join their sales force.
• Post the financial crisis in 2008, there has been a revival of insurance products as safe financial vehicles.
• Agent sales for insurers continue to be where the bulk of the revenue for insurers are coming from.
• Insurers are hiring more and more agents and investing in the producer ecosystem but there is a shift in that paradigm:
• New agents are looking for more sophisticated insurers who provide training and support for them.
• Agents on average are now more educated, have a wider network, and are more tech savvy.
• Due to aging population and changes in federal regulation, agents will need be armed to sell everything – not just Life Insurance.

The Producer Model Today for Insurers
.
10
They’re very ‘social’
• 18-49 year olds the heaviest users of Social Media (average of 67% log into Facebook every day) – Pew Research Centre.
• They connect with the future customers where they are
They shop and research for financial products on line
• 90% of Gen Y already shop online (Cisco Connected World Technology Report – 2012)
• 95% of all Social orders originate from facebook (+129% since 2009) - Shopify
Workplace loyalty goes to the employer that invests in their success
• Training, technology, and mentorship are key decisions
• Provide them qualified leads and tools to sell
The “New Agent” recruited will sell to the “New Customer” you want to attract
• How do you know you are reaching the right agents today? What do you do about the ones you are not touching?
• Are you recruiting, managing, and mentoring your age force effectively?
• How do you handle agent turnover and loss book of business?
• How do you attract and get to the new millenial customers while shoring up your face2face sales teams during these times?
• How do you get access to your policyholders, even if sold through agents?

WHO WE AREBOUTIQUE IN NAME. GLOBAL IN REACH
Overview
How do you define the “ProducerDirect” channel?Broadly defined, we look at this sector as what some would call “third party or intermediary sales” in insurance. These will take the form of agents (captive, non-captive), brokers, advisors, agents, and agencies (retail locations).
Where do we focus?Companies that underwrite insurance policies that are sold to agents and advisors and depend them to recommend products to their consumers.
Clients would be insurance carriers offering products in:
● Life ● Propery & Casualty● Auto & Home
● Non-Life ● Non-medical health
Key Firm Success Criteria● Track agent success and sales
● Track cradle to grave sales process for Agent/Broker
● Visibility into pipeline and sales activities from Broker/Agent
● Ability to rank and better service high producers
Challenges● Direct access to end customer● Advisor/Producer mindshare/outreach● Wholesaler Brand vs. Company Brand● “Selling time” vs. “Admin time”● IT Resourcing Limitations● Supporting a Mobile Workforce● Access to Personalized Information
INDUSTRY PERSPECTIVE
Before - Challenges: After - Results:
Disconnected systems, multiple entry points, personal documents
Single entry point, consistent UX, consolidated data, better reporting and searching
Lack of visibility into prospect data resulting in wasted time Better analytics and data for targeting and predicting
Missing workflows required extensive time searching for the correct information
Proactive workflow and notifications cut down on search time
Manual data entry and administration took significant amounts of time
Automated processes allowed for more time selling
Inability to access data while on the road Mobile apps provide “anytime, anywhere” access
Unscalable one-to-one support model Team collaboration and support for deals and service
In ability to interact with policy holders directly Direct access and engagement with policyholders
Disconnected sales (distribution), marketing, service (transfer agency)
Collaboration features encourages visibility to all client touchpoints regardless of channel
WHAT THIS MEANS TO A CLIENT:
Leveraging industry-specific assets and experience, Cloud Sherpas sets the foundation for a business benefit-driven approach to cloud technology – reducing time to deployment with a rich functionality set, in a predictable and measurable way.
