General Questions

What are leads and why are they important?

Leads are people who have given you their contact information and permission to contact them about the services you offer as an independent insurance agent.

In the insurance industry, using different types of leads is essential to scaling up your business. Leads are collected through a variety of channels like social media, websites, calls, and more! There are also different leads for different products. For example, leads can be separated into health insurance and life insurance. Successful insurance agents know everything there is to know about effective leads, how to generate them, and how they will benefit their business.

Why should I buy leads?

Without proper networking skills and the right channels, leads can be difficult to come by. Finding or generating leads through channels you directly manage can also be time-consuming. Buying leads may save you time and effort in growing your business. Not only that, but it may also allow for considerable flexibility and scalability, so you can nurture the leads you buy toward the needs of your individual business.

If you’re a new agent in the game, buying leads could jumpstart your business, giving you a fast and efficient way to build your client base.

Are all leads sold by vendors compliant?

No. Some vendors fail to comply with regulations such as the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA), which protects consumers from unwanted telemarketing calls, robocalls, and texts. This specific regulation is arguably the most neglected because of lack of internal compliance processes, verifying lead data, and the risk of making calls or texts to mobile numbers without proper consent. As a result, verifying that leads are compliant with all federal and state regulations before you buy them is paramount.

Must I still obtain a Scope of Appointment from purchased Medicare leads?

Yes. A Scope of Appointment (SOA) is required for purchased leads, even if they expressed interest in a plan when providing their contact information and permission to contact. The SOA more specifically ensures you have the client’s explicit permission to discuss specific Medicare products before a scheduled meeting. The document must be signed by the client and kept on file for 10 years.

You can also check the Lead Request option found at the bottom of the lead results page as well as the cherry pick leads system that will email you when a state or county you want leads in has received new leads.

1. Navigating to the Manage Leads tab
