There’s one simple thing you can do to help you achieve both: ensure you have accurate information for all your clients and prospects in your agency management system.

First, you need two crucial pieces of data: their name and a way to contact them.

Even if you determine that existing federal and state laws don’t apply to you, it’s a good idea to consult an attorney and determine if you need to have a privacy policy on your site.

Most people couldn’t tell you which of their friends need insurance. So outright asking if they know anyone who may be looking for a new agent will almost never lead to referrals.
