Lesson 1 Title I Representatives

This section of the Act deals with the definition of an "insurance representative." This term may apply to one or more persons who are certified to distribute financial products and services in the insurance sector. This introduction section also identifies persons not considered under this legislation as being insurance representatives, in that they are not certified by the Authority to pursue the activities described within the Act. Also described are the conditions under which representatives can pursue the distribution of products and services, the manner in which they must conduct themselves, and the way they must collect and use client information.

Lesson 2 Title II Registration

This section of the Act sets out what constitutes a "firm" and who can register as a firm in Quebec. There are conditions under which registration as a firm can be denied. A firm's obligations to deal with clients in an ethical and responsible manner are outlined here, as well as regulations surrounding record-keeping and the use of client information.

Financial regulations are covered here in terms of premiums, commissions and the collection of money by representatives. An important reference here (#103) refers to the creation of policy by firms, for investigation and resolution of complaints. Mention is made of access by inspectors to company records. The Financial Markets Administrative Tribunal is introduced in its role with regard to penalties assigned where firms have been guilty of omissions or contraventions to the Act.

In this course we learn abut basic customer services skills. According to the service experts, we don't understand what it is that our customers want from us. We spend a lot of time and money promoting product and pricing differences. Today's insurance consumers EXPECT competitive products and pricing. For example, insurance brokers will generally agree that 10 years ago, more consumers wanted policy feature comparisons when buying insurance than is the case today. Why the difference?

No brokerage wants to have to deal with an E&O claim.

According to business experts, E&O claims are preventable. If we accept that, the next question is, "What can we do in our brokerage to prevent an E&O claim"? As a first step, we need to know the categories and/or sources of E&O claims and, once we know that, we can start developing a formal E&O program to prevent them from happening.

Note: There are a lot of people involved in the transaction of insurance. The law recognizes that that the following relationships will exist and that they bring with them certain legal responsibilities, specifically: agents to insureds (also referred to as the "agent-client" relationship); insurers to insureds; agents to insurers; and, insurers to agents. While all these relationships are worthy of study, the focus for this Part is on the agent-client relationship.

While protecting insurance consumers with E&O insurance is a good thing to do, a primary focus of the brokerage should be on adopting and implementing a formal E&O program that applies to everyone in the brokerage.

The best way to control the brokerage's E&O exposure is to implement needed controls and procedures into every aspect of the brokerage's operations, regardless of brokerage size.

The specific details of the brokerage's E&O program must be in writing. When brokerage controls and procedures are not set down in writing, you really don't have an E&O program at all. Instead, everything that is done in the brokerage to prevent E&O claims is done on a "hit" and "miss" basis. In addition, brokers may not know all the things they should be doing to prevent E&O claims. A formal E&O program will provide them with that information. Finally, when there is no formal E&O program policy, it makes it easy for the negligent broker to say after an E&O claim has been filed that "I didn't know we were supposed to do that". It is only logical that when there is a lack of controls, there is an accompanying increase in the potential for E&O claims.

In our business, we need to ask a lot of questions to uncover our customer's needs. In the view of most successful salespeople, 'Questions are the answer'.

But questioning is only half of the answer. We also need to listen to the answers.

Before we can offer solutions to a customer's needs, we need to discover those needs.

We need to question the customer. We need to listen to their answers. We may need to ask additional questions to clarify information. We need to do all of these things to uncover our customer's needs before attempting to present our solutions.

This seminar will explore the areas of 'questioning' and 'listening'. Hopefully, this will enable you to use these two tools more effectively. The better you are at using these skills, the more effective you will be in uncovering your customers' needs and providing solutions to those needs.

Demand for insurance products and services remains as strong as ever but there has been a fundamental shift in the channels consumers choose to make their purchases. Insurance is generally bought directly through an insurer (through its captive agents, the web or other direct channels) or through independent agents and commercial brokers who provide access to the products of several insurers. Agreements bind brokerages and insurance companies together. The terms of these can vary according to the companies involved. These agreements will document the relationship that exists between the two parties.

By the end of this course you will be able to:

• Explain independent and direct channels of insurance distribution in Canada
• Describe agreement between a broker and an insurer
• Describe factors considered by a brokerage to choose an insurer
• Descrive factors considered by an insurer to choose a brokerage

Les clients d'une entreprise représentent son plus gros actif. Pas de client, pas d'entreprise. Le sentiment qu'ont vos clients détermine le succès de votre entreprise.

Nos clients sont constamment en train de nous évaluer et se forment une opinion sur nos accomplissements.

Lorsque nous accomplissons un bon travail qui rencontre leurs espérances de service, les clients seront satisfaits, en feront part à d'autres personnes, et vont revenir. Si nous n'accomplissons pas bien notre travail, ils ne reviendront pas, mais pire encore il va en informer d'autres.

Quels sont les points qui affectent l'évaluation des clients de notre travail?

Il y'a des éléments de base, que chacun espère d'un fournisseur de biens ou service. Nous devons nous assurer de comprendre en quoi consistent ces éléments.

Nos clients veulent aussi expérimenter un service hors pair. Lorsque nous prenons l'occasion de faire plus encore que ce qui est attendu, il s'agit d'un service ajouté.

Les experts ont identifié plusieurs points qui affectent la vision des assurés et leur évaluation de notre service.

Nous parlerons de huit de ces éléments.

Vous effectuez déjà plusieurs de ces éléments, et certainement vous le faites bien. Mais, il n'est pas mauvais de réviser nos actions de temps en temps.

Pourquoi est-il nécessaire de faire cela? Peu importe depuis quand nous servons la clientèle nous avons tendance à oublier certains points. Après tout l'oublie est humain.

C'est comme jouer au golf ou un instrument de musique. Il est nécessaire de revenir à la base pour nous améliorer.

Pour ceux qui sont dans le domaine depuis longtemps, il est important de reconnaître que la clientèle a changé depuis quelques années. Il est donc temps de changer nos méthodes d' il y a 10 ou 15 ans passés.

This course is intended to help recognize objections and learn how to handle them in a manner that leads to the successful completion of the sale.

One very important aspect about objections is that they are not personal. The customer is objecting to something about the product that is being sold; they are not objecting to the person doing the selling.

While many people think of objections as obstacles to the sale, they are really opportunities, specifically:

• Opportunities to learn about the things that are bothering the customer.

• Opportunities to find out what the customer really thinks.

• Opportunities to find out what the real problem is.

Objections can come up at any time in the sales process.

Objections are really a sign that the customer has some interest, but they do not yet see the value of your product or service to them.

This is particularly true of any objection to price.

Brokerages often regard themselves as being independent of insurance companies, yet their very existence depends upon the insurance company that assumes the risks represented by the policies the broker sells. This tie, in which the broker is the intermediary between the consumer/client and the insurance company, is articulated in the agreements forged between the two entities.

Ce cours a pour but de vous aider à reconnaître les objections et à apprendre à les gérer correctement de manière à ce qu’elles vous conduisent finalement à la vente.

Un aspect très important à retenir est que les objections ne sont pas personnelles. Le client peut avoir un argument à propos du produit qui est vendu sans pour autant reprocher quoi que ce soit au vendeur.

Bien que nombreux sont ceux qui voient les objections comme un obstacle à la vente, elles sont, en réalité, des opportunités et en particulier:

• Une opportunité d’apprendre ce qui préoccupe le client.
• Une opportunité de vraiment savoir ce que le client pense.
• Une opportunité de découvrir quel est vraiment le problème.

Risk Management includes all things an individual, group, business owner, organization or other entity can do when dealing with pure risks to ensure that the potential for financial loss from an accident or event is avoided or minimized. While Risk Management is important for everyone, this course focus primarily upon business risks. By the end of this course you will be able to help business owners develop a formal written Risk Management Program that incorporates strategies the business will use to avoid or minimize the adverse financial consequences of an accident or other event on the business.

There are many advantages to providing business clients with this knowledge. Insurance brokers who spend the time to help their clients look at their business from a risk management perspective are more likely to be viewed as being more professional. While clients are sure to be more informed about their loss exposures, brokers will also be helping to avoid an Errors and Omissions claim against them and the brokerage by ensuring they have provided clients with information those clients should reasonably expect to have received from their insurance broker.

Topics covered include:

• A planned approach to risk management
• Five steps in the risk management process
