Back to Basics
When USAir's Flight 1549 famously landed - safely but spectacularly
- in the Hudson River recently, pilot-hero Chesley Sullenberger 3rd
flew the plane while first officer Jeffrey Skiles worked
desperately and unsuccessfully at moving through a three-page checklist
of procedures for restarting both engines. Unfortunately, the checklist
was designed for engine problems occurring at higher altitudes. Thus
the safety procedures available were worthless. They were designed for
a different situation entirely and couldn't be worked through in

Is the business plan you have developed for your clients and your business
applicable to the current market environment and your current competitive
situation? If it isn't, you risk crashing your practice along with

Are you running your business or is it running you?
Do you feel like there aren’t enough hours in the day to
get it all done? If you have more to-dos than time, you could benefit from
using the services of a marketing organization to keep your head above
water. Field Marketing Organizations (FMOs) provide business and marketing
consulting to insurance professionals who want to increase their production
goals and create a professional look and feel for their marketing campaign
without spending a lot of money. In fact, many FMOs charge only for the
cost of materials and are compensated by the insurance carriers the agents
are licensed with.
Need an FMO?
If you’re interested in learning more
about working with Asset Marketing Systems and how we can support you
as your FMO, visit our web site or
just reply to this e-mail, and we’ll get in touch.
