FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

OLDWICK - MAY 06, 2015 11:43 AM (EDT)
Best's Review editors will host a one-hour webinar, titled, "Insurance Distribution—We're All In Sales," on Wednesday, May 13 at 2:00 p.m. (EDT). An expert panel will explore how insurers are looking to maximize the effectiveness of both their tied (or captive) and independent agents and brokers to support growth in a challenging market. The aspects of managing these two channels, while similar in many ways, require different toolsets, approaches and capabilities. The panel will review the latest trends, issues and opportunities facing insurers supporting both tied and independent producers.
