Individual Product Presentations Begin
Learn What’s New for 2008
From November 5 through 16, in communities throughout Oregon, we will host overviews of our new Individual products and programs for 2008. All PacificSource-appointed agents and their staff may attend these free presentations. Seating is limited, so please reserve your spot early. The presentations will include:
- Review of product design and rates for PacificSource individual and family plans
- Overview of new individual value-added benefits and mandates
For details about a presentation near you, visit the For Agents/Professional Development area of our Web site. If you are unable to attend one of these presentations, please contact your Individual Sales Representative or our Individual Department to set up an appointment for us to meet with you personally.
Short Term Medical Brochure is All-In-One Sales Tool
Agents are discovering that the PacificSource Short Term Medical (STM) brochure is a convenient, all-in-one sales tool. Not only does it include rates, a benefit summary, and an application, but it also has a space on the cover for your name. Since everything is in one brochure, it's easy to hand to clients—no loose pages to get lost.
Plan administrators like the brochure, too. It’s easy to add to new-hire packets. STM plans give new employees coverage options while they wait for their group benefits to begin. The brochure is also the perfect addition to separation of employment packets. STM plans offer lower-cost alternatives to state continuation or COBRA coverage.
The response has been amazing since we began offering PacificSource Short Term Medical plans. “Agents are very excited about the product,” says Individual Sales Representative Kelly Walker. “The response to rates, product design, and delivery has all been positive.” We’ve already distributed 10,000 brochures. Our Individual Department has kept busy—processing more than 490 STM policies since July 1.
