LAAIA - Atlanta Chapter

Independent insurance agents… you’ve heard at least ONE of these this week. 😂

Our industry is changing fast, and sometimes the hardest part isn’t finding coverage — it’s helping clients understand whythe right coverage matters.

That’s where the value of an independent agent really shows. You’re not just quoting a policy. You’re educating, advocating, finding solutions and helping clients protect what they’ve worked hard to build.

Now we want to hear from our Atlanta insurance community:
👇 What’s the one thing a client says that you hear ALL the time?

Drop it in the comments. Bonus points if it makes another agent laugh. 😂

Every independent insurance agent has a SUPERPOWER. 💪🦸

What’s yours?
🔥 Finding a market for the “impossible” risk
🤝 Winning over a tough prospect
🧠 Knowing exactly which carrier to call
📞 Saving the account at renewal
💰 Cross-selling like a pro
🚨 Solving a client crisis before breakfast

Or maybe your superpower isn’t on our list!

INSURANCE PROFESSIONALS, YOU GET IT!

👀What phrase from a client immediately puts your insurance brain on high alert?

🚗 Agents, Are You Having the Rental Reimbursement Conversation?

Here’s a statistic worth sharing: 60% of policyholders with rental reimbursement coverage say they heard about it through their insurance agent.
Yet only 41% of U.S. policyholders currently have the coverage, and 51% of those without it say they would consider adding it.

That means agents have an opportunity to educate their customers about a coverage they may not even realize they’re missing.
Enterprise is offering a FREE Continuing Education course exploring rental reimbursement, customer satisfaction and retention.

🎓 Learn online whenever it fits your schedule OR register for an upcoming live webinar.

The course covers the importance of discussing rental reimbursement, overcoming common objections, the impact of increasingly complex vehicle repairs and more.
