Cross Selling of Insurance Products Rene Lugo October 18, 2009 EDTC 3332 Instructional Technology Practicum
Needs Assessment Cross selling of products has not been implemented successfully in our insurance agency.
Cross selling should be generating a good 40% more of sales income on a daily basis and it should be used with every client that comes in office on an everyday basis. Unfortunately, employees have not been using the system properly, and our sales have not shown an increase in the last twelve months. By implementing new training with a different approach, sales will be increased and customer service will be better.
We believe that by using some marketing tools and enforcing them we can create that surplus sales income from our employees.
Employees will also attend role playing sessions with co-workers to sharpen their obstacle overcoming skills.Employees will also be scheduled to attend motivational sales seminars to promote and instill a positive attitude towards increasing their production.
Employees will be given training on warm approaches, productknowledge, sales techniques. • Employees will attend product knowledge classes and will be able to fully describe to clients the need and the advantage of buying our products.
