Description

This three-hour class Essentials of Sales specifically targets sales functions in the agency. Agents hold a variety of titles in agencies: Producer, Account Executive, or Sales Agent, for example. In some agencies, Account Managers or CSRs (Customer Service Representatives) are also responsible for sales. No matter what your title, if you sell or assist in sales, this class provides valuable insights to help reduce your E&O exposure. 

PLEASE NOTE - THIS CLASS IS APPROVED FOR PREMIUM DISCOUNTS WITH BOTH SWISS RE AND UTICA! IF YOUR STATE HAS AN ACTION ITEM FOR YOU AFTER COMPLETING THE CLASS, IT WILL BE INCLUDED IN THE HANDOUTS/MATERIALS SECTION!
