Long Term Care Insurance as an Employee Benefit

Agent Sales Journal recently interviewed insurance broker Joe Imparato of Tuckley & Shepley Benefits Insurance, LTD in Boston.  During the interview they asked him to identify a resource, service, software, or program that has been critical to his success.  We were honored that out of all of the available tools he chose to shine a spotlight on Empower services.

Thanks Joe.  Here’s the question and a link to the full article.

Q: Can you share a resource, service, program, or piece of software that has been critical to your success?

Joe I: I was terminated from TIAA-CREF, and that is where I got my start for my own business. I had great brand-name clients to start with. I worked with EM-Power to get into LTCI. I use their system for prospecting and sales. Anne and I use the EM-Power system for prospecting and sales for employer-sponsored multilife cases.

Their system includes PowerPoint presentations, a prospecting kit (binder with all HTMLs, letters), everything with the process of putting in place a multilife case. They have a software program where you can show prospects a six-minute tutorial that they can click to from my email. It is a turnkey system from when we meet with a business owner or human resources person.

We show them that we have everything that it takes to roll out the program, from the accounting bill to how employees sign up. When I sit in front of them, they’re making a carrier choice, not how are we going to do it. Every little inch is covered with this.

HR’s biggest fear is that it’s easier to do nothing than to risk introducing a new voluntary benefit. If they have an attachment to the product, we reduce their fears that administration will be painful or burdensome. We are usually chosen over their existing broker to offer LTCI because of the complete package and solution we bring to their institution.

We’re proud to have Joe and Anne as partners.
