FALL 2010 Vol 3, Issue 4

Industry INsights

a vendor-to-insurance industry newsletter

Dear Laura,

Happy fall, everyone! You can't turn back now. Holidays, gifts, parties and lots and lots of eating are our fates for the next few months. So, surrender! Enjoy the busyness, the family, the break from the normal day-to-day activity and... celebrate!

As the weather starts to get colder, puff backs and pipe bursts threaten to interrupt our (and your clients') festivities. Send an informative e-mail to your insureds reminding them 1) to have routine maintenance performed on their furnaces and 2) to keep the indoor temperature at or above 65 degrees consistently. If disaster does strike, of course, ServiceMaster is ready 24/7.

Finally, ServiceMaster and 5 area agencies are supporting the Bridgeport Rescue Mission this holiday season through our 2nd Annual Food Drive. I will be sending results and pictures to you all around Thanksgiving!

This quarter we are giving away two agencies luncheons! All you have to do to be the "office hero" is answer the following question in a reply e-mail.

This quarter we are focusing on large, commercial losses so...as an insurance agent how can you help your commercial clients prepare for disasters before they happen?

Send us three suggestions!

Hint: www.ready.gov and www.servicemastergb.com are good resources for this question.

On the Radio!

For 2010 we committed to a year longradio commercial campaign with WICC. Paul Plouffe, owner of ServiceMaster, is also scheduled for bi-monthly appearances on the Jim Buchanan show! We'll make sure that you know when the interviews will air.
