Like many or most people in the insurance industry I found insurance {or it found me} by pure chance - in my case a game of Badminton was to blame when I was asked to make up a four one day. I was offered an office junior role for a brokerage and the rest, as they say, is history! My career took a course of Office Manager to Area Manager for a 10 branch high street brokerage business and, having served my apprenticeship, after 15 years I decided to start my own business from scratch. less

Nowadays, there are so many options on the market when it comes to insurance, therefore you may find it overwhelming to choose a reliable insurance broker that meets your expectations and needs. When choosing an insurance broker, most people will consider a bunch of different factors and aspects that will affect their final decision, some of the most popular ones of them being the price of the insurance and online reviews, referrals, recommendations. However, while these both measures can affect and dictate your choice of an insurance broker to a big extent, they are both not enough for making the best decision. So if you want to find the best insurance broker for your needs and requirements, here are some of the main aspects you want to consider.

Choosing an Insurance Broker – Reviews and Referrals

Of course, the first thing many people will do when looking for an insurance broker is to gather as much information and opinions from as many different sources as possible. Asking for recommendations, referrals, and checking out all online reviews and testimonials available in a good start to help you at least narrow down your options to the best insurance broker for your needs. Since consumer reviews can be based on different experiences with different types of insurances, some of them won’t help you make a final choice and choosing an insurance broker. Furthermore, keep in mind that some reviews may be biased towards and insurance broker and service. Therefore, you want to take your time and research all the information online carefully. When reading online reviews for an insurance broker it is always good to understand what the writer is referring to, what type of insurance broker service they have purchased, and then decide if the experience and opinion shared is relevant to you. Also, consider carefully if the experience shared online for an insurance broker is referred to a person, representative and employee of the insurance broker, or a certain insurance broker service/product. Finally, if you want to further discuss an online review of an employee of the insurance broker, do not hesitate to contact the broker and speak to the person. They should be able to give you feedback and address the question you ask, from now on you can draw your conclusions.

Insurance Broker – Ranking and Comparison

Make sure to check out general consumer surveys when you want to compare one insurance broker with another or simply draw conclusions about the overall performance of an insurance broker. You can find these surveys online and they are a good measure for evaluating an insurance broker and its performance. Such surveys often compare one insurance broker to another side by side, which will help you narrow down your options quickly and easily. Keep in mind that you have to look for independent, unbiased rankings that are based on real customer reviews and options shared. Therefore, look for a ranking of an insurance broker only from credible and reliable sources.

Insurance Broker – Financial Stability and Strength

Whenever you are trying to figure out of an insurance broker is good or not, take into account its financial stability and strength too. A good insurance broker will normally perform financially good too. In order to pay out claims, an insurance broker should have assets and be financially stable and strong.

Insurance Company vs Insurance Broker

Local insurance companies can make a lot of difference when you choose an insurance broker. You want to look for an insurance broker representative or an agent, who can generally offer good customer service, is knowledgeable, experienced, and a good listener, someone competent enough to give good advice, someone reliable. You may choose to work with a reliable and reputable insurance broker, but it can also happen that their employee, who is your point of contact, is someone, who cannot offer the level of service you expect. So don’t hesitate to research in-depth the insurance broker you buy your insurance from and also learn more about the representative of the insurance broker who sells you the insurance. In case you are able to build a good relationship with this insurance broker person, you will be able to get a lot of help when you need some.

Insurance Broker – Service Model

An insurance broker can offer a different service model compared to another insurance broker. For example, an insurance broker can sell insurance directly, while others will use a network. By understanding the service model of an insurance broker you will be able to make a more effective decision. Therefore, when choosing an insurance broker, make sure to consider it offers the type of customer support you expect, how it handles claims, who will resolve claims for you, etc. There are many different types of insurance products available on the market, make sure to find the one that best suits you and your needs.

Insurance Broker and Payment Plans

Some companies will offer more effective and flexible payment plans than others and this is one more factor you want to consider in order to make the best choice. Therefore, you want to also research and find out how the insurance broker you may be interested in working accepts payments. Furthermore, some companies may offer additional discounts and special offers, for example, a discount for automatic withdrawal, a discount for full payment upfront, etc. Make sure to discuss these aspects and possible offers that may be beneficial for you with the representative of the company you will contact. Such secondary but still possibly beneficial and important factors can also affect your final decision and help you make a choice you won’t regret.
