3 Reasons Why Insurance Agents Should Focus on Online Reviews

When people are looking for a new insurance agent, more than likely the first thing they will do is search for a list of possible candidates online. Having a strong online presence is extremely important so that your name will be toward the top of that list. 



Once they find your name, customers will want to know more about you and the reasons you are better than the rest. For that, they will turn to customer reviews. Our online reputation management system can help you take control of the way customers see you online. 

Here are a few reasons why more reviews are an excellent tool for moving your business forward, especially when you let BlueJay Reviews help you to encourage and monitor those customer comments. 

1. Everyone Is Online
9 times out of 10 (and quite often, 10 times out of 10) when people need to know something, they will turn to the internet for the answer. Phrases like "How can I find an insurance agent in my town?" and "Who is the best insurance agency in my area?" will be used to find an insurance agent. More than a few names are bound to pop up. You want your business to be at the top of the list and requesting online reviews is a wonderful way to get yourself noticed online. 

2. Reviews Boost Your Online Presence
Encouraging customers to submit reviews for your company online is an easy way to consistently have fresh content about your insurance agency out there. Algorithms that are put into place for search engine optimization pay very close attention to user-generated content, like reviews. The more reviews you encourage, the more often sites like Google will take notice of your name, causing it to rank higher in searches. 

3. Reviews Build Trust
Word of mouth is one of the very best marketing tools around. People rely heavily on the experiences of others to decide whether something could be a good fit for them. 

When someone can read about the experiences that another person had with your company, this is an excellent way to help them understand exactly who you are and what you do. You could tell them the exact same thing but it is much more convincing coming from a person that is non-biased about the situation.
