some
ac:onable

already
have
a

if
you
don’t
have
a
website
yet.

This
is
so
important,
because
–
apart
from

for

most
agencies,
the

of
prospects
today
find
agents
online
first.

You
never
get
a
second
chance
to

make
a
first
impression.

6 Keys to Website Success

1. Simple Design and Navigation

2. Make It Personal
Put your picture on it
About Page
Use actual photos (not stock)
direct vs local agent, people who buy from an agent want to deal with a person..

3. Ask for Action
Education as a goal (to build credibility)
Phone Call
Quote Request (discuss length of form)
Show long quote request forms, mention completion rate

4. Unique Content

4. Unique Content
* Businesses that increase their blogging from 3-5 times per month
to 6-8 times per month nearly double their online leads.
* Companies that blog between 10-15 times per month get ﬁve
times more trafﬁc than companies that donʼt blog.

4. Unique Content

Full page for each location
Provide ideas for what unique content might mean in an insurance agency context

Content Ideas:
Home Insurance:
• Do I need to video my home and belongings?
Life Insurance:
•When would I need a term policy?
Auto Insurance:
• Do I need to buy insurance when I rent a car?
• How do I insure my teen driver?
Any question your potential customers might have

mobile devices than PCs to get
online.”

6. Measure
It’s easy to measure the results of your website, how many people
come to it each day, what keywords do they use to ﬁnd it, where
are they coming from... Google provides a free tool for this. Once
you have a baseline, you can measure the effects of your
marketing and tell what is making a difference. Aaron will talk
more about this in the next presentation...
