Homeowner’s Insurance Customers Happier With Local Agent
Last night there was a storm and some of the tiles came off of your roof. Which conversation would you prefer?
1. “Hi Mary, this is John Smith. Some of the tiles came off my roof last night.”
“Oh I’m sorry Mr. Smith, yes that storm was really something, wasn’t it? We’ll get help to you right away.”
2. “All our representatives are busy with other customers. Your wait time is approximately 20 minutes. Please hold.”
Customers have expressed their greater satisfaction when they have a local agent.
A recent study measured the satisfaction of homeowners when they had to file a claim for damages covered under their homeowner’s policy.
Local agents are known as the “personal insurance industry”. Those who have to go through direct channels – typically online or by calling a call center- are much less satisfied with the results. Satisfaction is 50 points higher among customers who file a claim through their agent than among those who file a claim through “direct channels”
For the industry average, the call center experience fails to deliver the same level of service as an agent. Especially during times of hardship when someone’s house has been destroyed or their valuable possessions have been lost, it’s difficult for a call center representative to replicate the personal relationship customers get with an agent.
