How to Beat the Soft Market Blues:

Despite the soft market and slow economy, A&M is providing the types of coverage that have allowed many of our retail partners to grow their businesses. Some successful producers have begun to focus on a specific industry. They have developed the industry specific knowledge and understanding to gain a reputation as the "go to" insurance source.

Another successful approach is almost the opposite of the single industry focus. This approach requires quick study and a lot of hustle. These successful producers see a sales opportunity in almost every contact or business in their area of operation. They want to "cast a big net".

The common denominator in both approaches is easy access to the specialty carriers that aren't just looking for the same old "standard" accounts. A&M can provide the multiple specialty markets so necessary for success. Whether you're looking to specialize or "cast a bigger net", we have options and strong support needed to succeed.

Stop Singing the "Soft Market Blues"

Today's soft market and increased competition are making it tough for you to grow or even hold your own.  Rather then suffer the soft market blues, there are ways, even in this market, to increase your commissions.

Do a risk management survey on your current commercial and personal lines customers: 

  • Do all your personal line customers have a personal umbrella?
  • Do their homeowners’ limits need to be increased?
  • Do they need in-home office coverage?
  • Do all of your commercial accounts have Employment Practice Liability
    (which is a must today)?
  • If a corporation, do they have Directors & Officers Liability?
  • What about earthquake coverage on their property?
A&M home
Nationwide
(except Louisiana)

These are just a few coverages many of your clients may not have. "Failure to provide" is one of the leading causes of producer E&O claims which makes reviewing each of your accounts, making and recording recommendations to fill any gaps in coverage, a "must" today.

Another cure for the "soft market blues" is to add new customers. We offer some excellent products that can be a door opener for you. We offer packages for a multitude of technology services, such as computer consultants, network design, software design /integration, plus many more. We have expanded our commercial contractor program and now can offer broader coverages at more competitive rates. How about soliciting new adult day care, nurse registry or janitorial contractor accounts? These are just a few of our programs that producers are successfully using to attract new clients.

Following our own advice, we have added some top notch carriers that offer focused programs at competitive rates. We have also improved our service to give you same or next day quotes on your submissions and using our EZ Quote will save you time. Give us a chance to help you cure your soft market wintertime blues.

But this is just a beginning. If you’re not already working with A&M just click here to get started.

You’ll have access to online applications and rating for smaller accounts. Our underwriters are ready to work with you to get the order for the larger and more complex accounts. In many cases we’ll offer a quote with multiple carriers. In short, we’re here to support you in whatever strategy fits your situation.
