As an insurance agent, you’re the boss. You set your own schedule, find your clients, nurture those relationships and have the freedom to grow your business.
But that doesn’t mean you have to go at it alone. Farm Bureau Financial Services (FBFS) insurance agents are supported by a support team of professionals dedicated to living FBFS’s commitment to service and strength. In fact, FBFS has five pillars that create a culture of service and growth to guide the support teams that serve agents. Let’s look at how they would benefit you and your clients.
Financial Strength
Let’s cut to the chase: You run your business to earn a living. Farm Bureau Financial Services is proud of its long-standing history of financial strength, which translates to stability for our agents. Farm Bureau Property & Casualty Insurance Company is among 55 insurers recognized by A.M. Best Review for maintaining an A.M. Best financial strength rating of A (Excellent) for the past 50 years.
And when you succeed, you’re rewarded. FBFS offers bonuses and incentive travel to say “thank you” for your hard work. Agents are paid for both new policies and renewals, with no limit to what you can earn.
Client/Member Satisfaction
In a world of algorithms and bots, the insurance business is still a people-first business. Your personal relationships with your clients are vital — and keeping those relationships as strong as possible is a team effort.
FBFS helps you build those relationships in a few ways:
1. By ensuring you’re equipped with the knowledge and tools you need
2. By surrounding you with a team of professionals to ensure your client/members get what they need
This support starts from day one with training and turn-key marketing and advertising resources.
Every touchpoint is important when it comes to insurance. FBFS makes everything from filing claims to paying bills simple and easy. The fewer the roadblocks, the happier your clients will be.
Innovation
Your time and effort should go into supporting your clients — not testing out new processes or finding the best new tools. The FBFS team stays on top of changing trends and the latest resources so you don’t have to. This leaves you more time to do what really matters.
High-Performing Culture
You’re dedicated to your business, and you can rest assured the team behind you is, too. At FBFS, you’ll work with like-minded people: Those who are passionate about providing excellent support and making clients’ lives better. As an insurance agent, you’re there for people during some of the toughest times of their lives, and the team has your back.
Social Responsibility
A passion for helping others is part of what draws many people to the insurance business; being there for their neighbors when they need it most is a critical part of the role. It goes a long way to work with a company that embodies that. FBFS has a long history of charitable giving, both in financial contributions and in time. The company also has a support structure in place to respond to large storm events. When you’re with FBFS, you can rest easy knowing you’re not alone in your commitment to your community.
