INVITE YOUR HO INSURANCE PROSPECTS TO "TRADE UP" THEIR CURRENT POLICY
Target the better neighborhoods and offer homeowners the opportunity to "trade up" their existing HO policy to a top-of-the-line contract. Use this concept in your agency’s marketing to establish that a prospect can do much better in protecting their home. The phrase, trade-up, is seldom used in P&C insurance and will attract interest from parties concerned about better insuring their home against loss.
Illustrate the main coverage advantages of your best high-valued homeowners policy vs. the prospect's contract (frequently a standard HO-3 or less) on a comparison checklist. Specify your coverage features, but ask your prospect to check off how he or she is insured. This approach actively involves interested prospects and can help to initiate telephone, email, or in-person discussions with potential insureds.
