Daily sales & marketing tips for insurance professionals

In this week’s Agent Blog Wrap-Up, Peter D. reports on climate change, Megan tries to spruce up the rest of the insurance news, and we check in with Aurora Borealis, currently on tour.

It’s with a bit of tardiness that I present you with this week’s Agent Blog Wrap-Up. (Technical difficulties; happens to the best of us!)

Take a look to find out who won this week’s contest (for 100 smackeroos), sneak a peak at a vintage insurance sales training video, and catch the new song by Aurora Borealis!

Insurance and alternative hairstyles aren’t exactly synonymous. But as we launched or corporate United Way charitable giving campaign this year, InsureMe CEO committed to shaving his head provided we received 100% participation from InsureMe employees.

We kept our end of the bargain. Now watch Tim as he keeps his.

Yep, today’s blog post comes in the form of video! A little rough around the edges but hopefully I’ll get better at this as time goes on.

[UPDATE]: Get your comments posted by Thursday before noon (MST)–we’ll draw a winner tomorrow afternoon!

Just quick note about the current contest (announced last Friday on the Agent Blog Wrap-Up):

When posting a comment with your measurable goals for 2007 (to this post), please include your email address. Rest assured–your email address will not be displayed in your comment. We just need a way to contact you if you win the $100.

Good luck!

Happy Monday, y’all. I hope a phenomenal weekend was had by all and that you have, by now, watched the first Agent Blog Wrap-Up featuring Aurora Borealis. The fan mail is already streaming in. I have a feeling Aurora Borealis is going to take off from here.

Once you’ve watched the video, don’t forget to leave a comment on last Wednesday’s post. You could $100. So far no one’s posted anything, making your chances of winning…well, pretty awesome.

I’ve spent most of this afternoon reading up on insurance news and various hot topics through my favorite sales and marketing blogs. A couple things piqued my interest but not enough to send me into a 700-word diatribe. So without further ado, here are today’s links:

Not Much Employer Backing for HSAs [The Health Care Blog]
Sidecars (relating to reinsurance) [Specialty Insurance Blog]
Minn. Boy Sues Parents Over Injuries Sustained in Accident [Insurance Journal] Make sure to check out David Rossmiller’s stellar commentary of this story here.

We’re all pretty excited to present you with the first-ever Agent Blog Wrap-Up. We hope you enjoy it as much as we enjoyed making it.
