Superior Service from Sale to Claim: RBC Insurance

How to Choose an Insurance Provider That Offers the Support You Need

Mississauga, August 17, 2004 — Superior service can often make all the difference in a client�s decision to buy any product, especially one as complicated as insurance. So when choosing an insurance provider to do business with, you need to ensure that you get the kind of service you and your clients expect � from sale to claim.

Here are a few things to consider when choosing an insurance company to do business with:

  • Does the company provide specialized support at every stage of the insurance sales and service process? Do they help you uncover opportunities and assist in client presentations if needed?
  • Do they provide this service across Canada and for various types of insurance products including life, living benefits and group insurance? Or are they only focused on one area?
  • What kind of back office support is available? Do you get efficient and effective underwriting decisions?
  • How competitive is the product offering? Will you be able to offer clients market-leading insurance solutions?
  • What kind of claims service does the company offer? How will your clients be treated if they need to file a claim?
  • How committed is the company to helping you grow your insurance business? Do they provide competitive compensation and incentive options?
