Leads360, SEMCAT Partner to Bring Fully-Integrated Lead Management System and Comparative Rater to Independent Insurance Agents
LOS ANGELES, CA, Jul 13, 2010 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) --
In an effort to streamline the sales process and make independent
insurance agents more successful, Leads360, the industry leader in
sales lead management software, today announced a seamless
integration with Allied Strategy's SEMCAT quoting solution. The new
integration enables independent insurance agents to manage leads and
retrieve accurate, bindable quotes from all of their appointed
carriers with one streamlined platform, thereby closing the gap
between generated leads and revenue.
Coupling Leads360's lead management system with SEMCAT's comparative
quoting engine, the integration allows agents to instantly and
securely send the data received through Leads360's lead management
system to the SEMCAT program to quickly generate insurance quotes
with 100 percent accuracy. A process that would normally take 10-20
minutes per carrier to quote by hand is now made possible without any
re-typing and results in quotes from each carrier in a fraction of
the time.
Leads360's Web-based lead management software helps sales teams to
streamline their processes and enables timely follow-up and greater
sales results. While the software is flexible enough to accommodate
the unique workflow of sales organizations of all sizes in any
industry, it is specifically designed to address the needs of the
insurance industry. Today, more than 400 insurance companies use
Leads360's software to receive, distribute, contact, follow-up and
convert more leads into customers. The end result is improved sales
and increased profitability.
"As the competition in the insurance industry continues to grow, this
integration will give independent agents the leverage they need to
work more quickly and accurately to close the deal," said Jeff
Solomon, Leads360 founder and senior vice president of product and
marketing. "We are pleased to partner with SEMCAT to help insurance
agents achieve greater sales results."
SEMCAT's engine enables agents to generate quotes with over 250
carriers nationally. Independent agents simply import their
prospective customer's information into the system, then SEMCAT
automatically populates the information into the various carriers'
quoting Web sites, thus eliminating redundant typing and saving
agents up to 85 percent of their quoting time. More importantly,
SEMCAT's quotes are proven to be 100 percent accurate and can be
bound and issued immediately, unlike the quote estimates presented by
many other comparative raters.
"The integration with Leads360 comes at a great time for our company,
as we have been experiencing rapid agency adoption nationally,
serving more than 4,000 agents in 43 states," said Colby Thomson, CEO
of Allied Strategy. "SEMCAT now offers a complete home and auto
quoting solution in states such as Florida, where there has been
relatively weak comparative rating capabilities. We are pleased to
offer our agents this one-two punch of a powerful lead management
software solution coupled with our comprehensive quoting engine."
