Brent Kelly dives into three reasons why Practice Quoting is Stupid in this episode of The Agent Leader.
What is practice quoting? We define it as "the art of providing a quotation to an unqualified prospect in order to force the incumbent agency to lower their renewal price while retaining the account."
Practice quoting is a waste of time, energy, and money for insurance agencies. Need more reasons why practice quoting is a bad idea?:
#1 - It undermines your professionalism as an insurance agent. (6:48)
#2 - It eliminates the opportunity for proper diagnosis and analysis of the clients' needs. (10:55)
#3 - It makes you look and sound generic. (16:04)
Brent encourages insurance agencies to establish rules of the game upfront, focus on providing value and expertise rather than just quoting, and differentiate themselves in the marketplace.
