"Stern Advice: Financial to-do list for 2013"

"Buy life insurance. If you have a family that depends on you, and you don't already have six times your income in term coverage, it's time to buy. Rates have been falling for more than a decade, but now that's over and some are heading back up, says Byron Udell of Accuquote.com. Furthermore, some life insurance companies are giving up on some product lines that they believe are unprofitable in today's low interest rate environment. Shop for term life at Accuquote.com, Intelliquote.com and term4sale.com,..." (Read More >>)

Senate Committee Presentation

"Term life insurance is easy for consumers to understand. If you die in the term, whatever that time frame is, your beneficiaries receive the face amount of the policy. Consumers understand this very well so coverage is not an issue. Dead is dead, so service is not much of an issue compared to, say, auto claims... The decision centers on price. Excellent online price services exist (CFA's favorite is www.term4sale.com)..." (Read More >>)

When we first considered the www.term4sale.com concept there were some objectives and realities that we had to deal with before the site was launched.

First, Compulife does not sell insurance. We wanted a website that would direct consumers to agents who use our comparison software. Why? For selfish reasons we wanted more agents to use our software. You can't be listed if you don't have our program.

From the consumer's point of view we truly believe that a term insurance buyer is best served by purchasing term insurance from an agent who uses comparison software. We also believe that the best comparison software that an agent can get is made by Compulife. After all, if we thought we could do the software better, we'd be doing it differently.

Second, we wanted to respond to the rising number of websites which offer term comparisons and which tell the consumer that they don't need an agent. The typical slogans are "buy direct and save" and "no agent will call". As you know that's a bunch of nonsense. Term insurance is sold at a pre-set price. The consumer doesn't pay any more for a term product because it was sold by an agent versus getting the same product from some agency (pretending it isn't an agency) three states away by phone. Or worse, the on-line self-serve idea where the consumer gets to be the agent. The reason an agent needs a license is because it is not that simple a product. Needless to say, we wanted to explain all that to the consumer. We think we've done a good job at www.term4sale.com.

Third, we wanted the site to be cost effective. Having a site is a nice idea but who's going to find it? You could spend money advertising, promoting, linking, etc., but how many consumers are going to be surfing the web anxious to look at life insurance? The amount of money needed for direct advertising, to drive traffic to the site, is unrealistic. Many doing that are losing money, and lose money while generating the full commission from the sale.

Fourth, we wanted a site the media would love. The plan was to build the best website a consumer could hope to have and work to get the media to recognize it. To do that we had to be completely objective and unbiased. The provider of the information (term4sale) isn't the seller of the policies. We give consumers the names of more than one agent. We're candid and hide nothing. Everyone is told up front how it works. As a result, www.term4sale.com is the best website for consumers.

Is the strategy working? The above are links to news stories that have included references to www.term4sale.com. Read them and see what you think.
