  14. Creating Your Own? • Follow Advertising Guidelines found online • Are Agents aware of guidelines? • Company preapproved materials may not be cut/pasted to create new sales pieces • Full name of Company should appear in ad • Company magazine isn’t advertising – don’t use in sale • If you mention products - identify policy form numbers • Use most current sources you can find – but not more than 2 years old

  16. Creating Your Own? Branch Managers must review Agent-submitted materials to ensure compliance with Advertising Guidelines. Compliance will contact Branch Manager with changes and/or approval. This could take several rounds. Agents may not use submitted materials until formal approval has been provided by Home Office.

  17. Creating Your Own? • Common submission mistakes • Bad grammar • Company name missing or misspelled • No policy/product name referenced • Inaccurate statements about benefits • Incorrect phone number or address listed
