Amwins Group Benefits replaces ancillary lines managed by competitor
The experience Amwins has built over more than 30 years in the benefits marketplace is the foundation for developing unique solutions for employer groups.
Recently, a broker partner contacted one of our sales leaders regarding a 100-life Medical group client that needed ancillary coverage. Our sales team’s knowledge of Amwins’ carrier partners and the quality ancillary lines available within our distribution network set the framework for a better solution for this group.
We met with the broker and his client to discuss the group’s needs, presenting a new Life & Disability offering, Voluntary Life Insurance with Annual Open Enrollment, and Short-Term Disability with a held rate and FICA match included. These components won the business for the broker and blocked out the competition indefinitely.
