READY TO BE NOTICED OUT THERE?
COOL! THEN HIRE THE AUNT.
Dear Aunt Shurance™ (DAS) is a refreshing alternative to the standard
insurance promotional fare. This entertaining and promotional CD presents a
series of Q&A "advice columns" and insurance quizzes. Both have their
own unique style and formula. The “advice columns” set up the answer (which
unabashedly promotes you and your agency) with outlandish situations; ones
that parody the serious advice columns found in many daily newspapers. The
quizzes are where DAS turns the tables on your prospect — asking them a
policy-specific multiple-choice question. The humor is in some of the wild
answers. Click on the images [above] to see two examples... a fun Q&A
"advice column" and an entertaining insurance quiz — both about jewelry
insurance.
DAS helps people to laugh, particularly about what is generally perceived to
be a very serious business. This approach allows you to let
people relax a little, hopefully enough to pick up the phone and call you —
or at least visit your Web site. Furthermore, it’s a wise strategy to
establish your office as a “creative” enterprise. This important label
helps when you are competing against better financed rivals. Prospects
imagine that if you are creative in your agency’s promotional activities,
then your approach to providing for their insurance will be equally
innovative. Use the DAS “advice columns” and insurance quizzes to help
you accomplish this. Combined, the entertaining, informative tools on
this CD help to get your agency noticed in a very crowded marketplace.
Dear Aunt Shurance™ is solicitous of the multi-car, home-owning,
jewelry-wearing suburbanite. As we all know, these consumers often generate
considerable long-term income for agencies and companies alike. It’s
why the competition for their business is so brutal and eternal. It’s
also why so many suburban neighborhoods are bombarded with mailings, ads,
and inserts from the nation’s most aggressive insurers. Their big
budget marketing typically touts premium savings of “up to $XXX dollars.”
To stand out from this cacophony, your message must be significantly
different. DAS provides you with a set of fun and original
alternatives.
