Specifically, we will cover: Hot buttons, HawkLink, customized fields, quoting, tracking KPIs – what’s working/what's not, CMS templates- how to find them, etc
12-1pm Lunch with Exhibitors
1-3pm Marketing Your Agency Now and in the Future (Real Case Studies) - If you're not embracing the future (even literally the here and now) and understanding your KPI's, then you have little chance of understanding the opportunities.
Insurance Agencies, by nature, are the most risk-averse organizations in the world. This characteristic extends into our marketing. New stuff scares us (or at the very least makes us incredibly cautious) and limits our organization's brand exposure because we don't have the data to allow actuaries to tell us whether it will or won't work.
This workshop will assist you in building your insurance brand campaigns and products through engagement that offers you new prospects, different environments in which to find them, with the needed strategic benefit of understanding their value. Real-life engagements will be seen as more novel and coveted as the industry moves forward. Your brands will create experiences and advertising campaigns that create in-person engagement, resonating as a relatable human beings, while also utilizing new insurtech platforms—one step at a time, with a solid foundation through HawkSoft.
To summarize, we will cover the following topics, along with the real-life case studies to accompany them – see it all in action!
- Brand DNA & KPI's
- Social Content & Video
- Local SEO- Part 1 Reviews (Incl Ins. Tech/Email Marketing)
- Local SEO- Part 2 Blogging/Pod Cast
- Community Casting (Builds Stronger DNA & Local SEO)
3-4pm "Campfire" - The human brain, no matter which region of the world it comes from, is drawn towards clarity and away from confusion. Throughout human history, clarity has been passed on through generations in the form of stories. Fortunately, the creation of stories require just a single apparatus that you carry with you until the day you die – creativity.
Campfire is about the art and science of storytelling. Together, we will learn:
- Why stories matter
- Why – as a manager or leader – its especially critical to share stories
- How to use stories to establish a sense of purpose for your department
- How to inspire and inform staff about upcoming projects or strategic changes for your department
- How to build a narrative around an idea you wish to promote
