Consultative Sales and Customer Support

· Conduct complete discovery conversations to understand the customer's goals, risks, current coverage, budget, and concerns.

· Prepare accurate quotes and present coverage choices in clear language so customers can make informed decisions.

· Recommend suitable products without pressure, disclose key limitations, and never sacrifice customer trust for a sale.

· Guide customers through required applications, documentation, payment, underwriting questions, and policy delivery.

· Set clear next steps, communicate progress, resolve barriers, and close the loop on every commitment.

· Create an organized handoff for service needs while remaining accountable for the quality of the relationship you started.

· Sound judgment, attention to detail, and reliable task management.

· Ability to use agency technology, customer management systems, email, phone, and virtual meeting tools.

· Ability to meet applicable background, appointment, licensing, and carrier eligibility requirements.
