Assisting Agents
Being an insurance agent is a lot like playing a musical instrument; there’s a lot to learn, and it takes time to master it. Well, while musicians have choir classes, guitar hero and piano lessons–insurance agents have the NFIP for all the support they could need to prepare for selling flood insurance such as:
Resources, Guides and Brochures
Did you know you can order NFIP publications directly, using the publications order form? This gives you access to up-to-date brochures, handbooks and other guides that answer your clients questions. Don’t struggle to answer questions; use tried and true strategies and tools created for you.
Training Resources
Before Sir Paul McCartney was one of The Beatles, he was just a kid with a guitar. The first step in being a renowned pro is always the hardest, so if you’re new to selling insurance, the NFIP offers webinars to train you. These webinars happen on an ongoing rolling basis and can help you learn about the fundamentals of flood insurance.
Social Media Toolkits
The NFIP has also created a variety of social media toolkits, in both English and Spanish, which you can use to reach clients for any number of types of flooding. These toolkits are useful whether you’re a first-time insurance agent or a seasoned veteran. They compile emails and social copy, as well as other publications like fact sheets that can help you be the best agent you can be.
So Much More
If you’re more of a seasoned pro, the NFIP can still benefit you. Every year, our team leads awareness campaigns to help share messaging around the risks of flooding and the benefits of having flood insurance.
