In our always-plugged-in world, it’s more important than ever for your agency to have a robust online presence. The strength of your business’s digital appearance and functionality shows customers that you’re a modernized agency and is a great way to promote the quality of your brand.

When you think online presence, the first thing that comes to mind is an agency’s website. But it’s become more important to customers that they can actually conduct business with your agency through your online portals.

Client expectations around online accessibility are driven by consumer experiences across industries and include:

  • 24/7 access on clients’ schedules and at their convenience
  • An aesthetically pleasing, user-friendly customer portal that sends the signal that your business is efficient and modern

Customer self-service portals deliver the digital engagement today’s insurance shoppers have come to expect, giving them the ability to:

  • Access policies, ID cards and documents
  • Submit change requests and generate certificates
  • Follow claims and make payments online
  • Have mobile access from anywhere

In fact, customer self-service is becoming so popular that the degree to which you offer it will set you apart from other agencies.

Clients now look for constant access to their policy details and often prefer using online self-service portals for simpler tasks instead of talking to someone. This is a win-win for you and your customers as you save time and money with online portals, and customers get their desired service.
