Small group health insurance

If you're a broker or agent in the small group health insurance space, you know the pain of quoting and selling small-group clients using spreadsheet proposals in response to RFPs. Yet, many professionals still rely on outdated methods that require hours of manual data entry.  

The Problems with Spreadsheets

1. Manual Entry = High Risk of Errors

A simple typo or incorrect formula can lead to inaccurate small-group client quotes, which may cost clients a lot of money and damage a broker’s credibility. Spreadsheets don't have built-in safeguards to catch mistakes, and a single data entry mistake can skew an entire proposal.

2. Time-Consuming and Inefficient

Every minute spent manually updating spreadsheets adds up to many hours of lost time that could have been spent selling and building client relationships. Instead of focusing on strategic growth and higher revenue-producing activities, account executives waste hours on administrative tasks that have been fully automated.

3. Version Control Nightmares

Ever sent the wrong version of a quote to a client? With multiple files floating around, losing track of the latest updates is common. Spreadsheets lack a centralized system, making collaboration and accuracy a challenge.

4. Limited Client Experience

Clients expect fast, accurate, and professional quotes. Spreadsheets can look outdated and may not present data clearly and intuitively. A clunky, error-prone quoting process does not instill a client’s confidence in the expertise of the broker and firm.
