... , as well as producers and processors. This enhances the relationship with clients, and in turn promotes client loyalty and retention, which increases profit. For example, because I'm a California resident with three teenage drivers and five vehicles, Auto insurance is a major line item in our household budget, annually surpassing $5 ,000. Several years ago, we switched companies. We had purchased a sports car with a V-6 engine for my wife. The engine was a last-minute decision because we had been planning on the V-8. Upon calling our insurance company with the policy change information, the rep commented, It's a good thing you didn't buy the V-8; we don't insure that model! ' I refuse to allow an insurance company to dictate what I can or cannot buy, so we ... . When signing with our current company, I told the story to our new agent. Placing himself into an advisory position, he commented, Your current company will insure whatever you may buy in the future, but I'd like to offer a service that could save you a lot of money down the road. When you plan to buy future vehicles, give me a call with the models you have in mind. I'll let you know what their rating categories are. If one model has a better rating and lower insurance costs, that might influence your decision. Since that day, I've considered my agent to be an integral factor in every auto purchase. He has increased his value to our household, and thus he has improved his odds in retaining our business. (By the way, ...
