SMALL BUSINESS OWNERS FIND SMALL INSURANCE AGENCIES THROUGH iBANK.COM

iBank.com helps both sides of the spectrum, by promoting small insurance agencies to small business owners that need business and personal insurance


Small insurance agencies are finding the help and leads they need to compete with the national chain companies, through the insurance network at iBank.com. Small business owners throughout the country can fill out an application and instantly insurance agents in their local area or state can contact them with offers of business or personal insurance.

“We’ve used quite a few marketing channels since we began business,” said Mike Del Castillo of the Saylor Insurance Agency. “iBank.com is definitely working for Saylor Insurance. We are closing one out of every nine deals. As a smaller agency, working with iBank.com gives us an edge that keeps us competitive in the insurance marketplace.”

Large insurance agencies around the country spend thousands of dollars on advertising, while the small insurance agencies are left without a means of competition. Most one to five man agencies rely on local print or cable advertising, which is limiting to small business insurance agencies that are looking to expand their customer base.

Small business owners can reach insurance agents across the street, across town or across the state using the iBank.com’s network of quality insurance agents and agencies. iBank.com does the major search engine marketing by using SEO key words for the small agency and helps them expand their business at a fraction of the cost. A variety of insurance applications can be found at iBank.com; such as Business and Commercial, Property and Casualty, Health and Medical, and Life and Annuity insurance applications.

iBank.com enables a business to use a secure vault to upload and store all necessary information for a professional insurance package. This includes tax returns, financial statements, management bios, appraisals, credit reports and business plans. This vault will allow the small businesses to pre-populate any one of 30 insurance applications instantly which can then be used by all insurance sources to provide an insurance quote and insurance policy with a single click. Advancing the lead flow for insurance agents and helping the small business owner find the best deals for personal and business insurance is the future of the insurance industry.

“It’s a win/win situation. We provide a simple, cost-effective method for finding insurance, while helping agencies and companies provide quality insurance in their own communities”, said Senior Insurance Network Manager Peter Gray.

Insurance agents or agencies that sign up with ibank.com have the chance to see leads from multiple states, from one state, just from their particular zip code or within a 100 mile radius in real time. iBank.com makes it easy to concentrate on a specific area or region.
