... to failure. Management must also ensure 100% employee involvement or the program will not be effective. Safety and accident prevention have to be an integral part of what I call the magic triangle' of any enterprise: production, quality, and safety. I believe that they're interrelated. Without a strong safety component, productivity, quality, and certainly profitability will suffer. Therefore, we must integrate safety into the hiring, orientation, and training processes. In today's environment, safety can no longer be considered a staff function with only safety professionals responsible for results. In smaller enterprises, the agent can become a major influence in molding these elements together. The effort should be made not just for the sake of safety, but to improve morale. For instance, a sanitary district had special trucks to pick up heavy items, such as refrigerators and washing machines, but did not supply its workers with hand trucks. The workers had to move heavy items manually from the curb to the truck-not a safe environment. The employees thought I was a miracle man' when the district's commissioners followed the recommendation of the safety committee and purchased hand trucks. When safety is employee-driven and the results are evident, all employees see the improved conditions and realize that management is committed to providing a safe workplace for them. How can we spread the word that safety affects a business' bottom line? I'd like to try an experimental seminar program, geared toward the smaller employer. It could be an after-work program, in which many agents would bring their clients to a central location. We could have ...

... x No Thanks Loading.. 25 Marketing Ideas You've (Probably) Never Considered Using Before 4/30/2013 by CompleteMarkets Editor , Tom Baker This content has not been rated yet. Do you ever come up blank when trying to think of creative ways to grow your agency? Believe it or not, there are still a lot of fresh ideas out there. Here are 25 of the best. Idea #1 : Use shaped CDs to deliver a message that will make a lasting impression. CDs are available in a variety of "shapes," such as business cards, cars, trucks and other specialty themes. Use shaped CDs to deliver memorable moments to customers and prospects. Business cards that are also CDs with information about your agency Proposals Scanned policies An internet search will show you a number of different vendors that offer shaped CDs. Idea #2 : Publicize your agency's commitment to social responsibility. Advertising your commitment to going "Green" can also result in some very green profits for your agency. Such carriers as Esurance are effectively reaching the Gen Y market with a message of social responsibility. News Media such as MSNBC report that social responsibility is becoming an important part of doing business. For example, Subaru has built a zero-landfill assembly plant. For example, is anyone in your agency driving a hybrid yet? Idea #3 : Brand your agency based on compliance with privacy legislation. Compliance with federal privacy legislation such as the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Privacy Act (GLBA) is not only the law — it's an excellent way to demonstrate your agency's professionalism. Create a consistent ...
