You have signed-up on Malaysia’s First Insurance Directory, but you are not receiving any leads? This is not uncommon, because customers decide to click on an agent profile and view within less than a second. We easily can understand that, because we are flooded with information and use simple rules like “Do I like the picture?” to help us decide if it is worthwhile to explore or not. 

Having a complete profile is number one priority!

The biggest mistake that agents on our directory make is to not provide the minimum information to have a complete profile. A complete profile consists of:

Love at first sight exist

A picture says more than thousand words that is why it is very important to have a good and friendly profile picture in the directory. First impression counts and viewers make their first decision based on the picture they see. Agent profile with pictures get 100x more clicks than profiles without pictures. Pictures matters and are the number one insurance lead generators for you. Add a picture of yourself to show people who you are. You can have multiple pictures on your profile.

Tip 1: Add additional Pictures 

Tell them who you are

Once the first hurdle is taken and the customer has clicked on your profile, you can provide more information to impress your potential customers. You can provide information about your business focus and even list the awards that you have won. Tell your customers who you are in a short description. Ideally in 100-150 words, but anything is better than nothing.

Example of a good agent profile with additional information of his business focus.

Here are a few questions that can guide you in what to write. But don’t limit yourself, write what you believe will get customers to contact you.

Tip 2: Add description about yourself and business focus.
