The drivers of change include financial pressures, consolidation, advances in technology, regulation, and rising consumer expectations and empowerment. Interestingly, these are the same forces that are already impacting other industries in profound ways. Financial pressures in the personal computer industry caused by declining margins, rapid product obsolescence, and growth of the consumer market created havoc among franchised distribution companies such as ComputerLand and Entre. This resulted in the formation of a two-tier distribution system (distributors and dealers) as a means of addressing both financial constraints and market demand.

Open the way to sales success with these three keys to interacting with prospects. In a Tillinghast-Towers Perrin survey, 76% of the Property/Casualty CEOs surveyed identified "distribution effectiveness and productivity" as their most crucial strategic issue. A broader group of CEOs from the overall financial services industry named distribution effectiveness and productivity as one of their top three issues from among 10 choices. Many insurers are addressing this issue by exploring different methods of distribution. Companies that have distributed exclusively through independent agents are establishing captive agents, direct writers are appointing independent agents, and nearly everyone is looking at the Internet and direct response.

Product Or Service?4/30/2013 by Jack Burke This content has not been rated yet. Product or service? That is the conundrum, the rub, the question! And the answer to that question could contain the secret of survival for the Independent Agency System.

The Nuts And Bolts Issue Independently owned and operated hardware stores, like the True Value franchises, continue to dwindle into obscurity. Large discount and wholesale operators, selling on price only, have battered them to death. If you were to seek out a local, independent hardware store, you'd find a genial, knows-almost-everything' owner or clerk who can explain ...

Do Advertising And Marketing Work?4/30/2013 by Al Diamond , CompleteMarkets Editor This content has not been rated yet. It never ceases to amaze me. Even though the Independent Agency System is totally sales driven, too many agents do an abysmal job in marketing and advertising our products and ourselves. In this document, Al Diamond answers the question, "What's the difference between advertising and marketing?" Many agents think that sending a letter (sometimes even without a follow-up call) is a valid marketing/advertising method that should work; and they're upset when it doesn't.
