COVID-19 Update 3/25/20

Work from home transition

We continue to actively monitor the spread of COVID-19 and we successfully have 60% of our employees working from the safety of their homes. As we make the final push to get our remaining employees to work from home, we will be transitioning our remaining employees today 3/25/20 and tomorrow 3/26/20. By the close of business Thursday 3/26/20, everyone in our office will be working from home. We have business continuity plans to ensure a normal business operations but today and tomorrow we may experience a disruption in our normal operations. We appreciate your understanding patience during these unprecedented times. Our plan is to be back to normal operations Friday 3/27/20.

Annuity Telephonic Sales Utilizing Electronic Application (eApp)

These volatile times are a great reminder of the benefits provided with fixed annuities. If clients want a fixed/indexed annuity but do not want to meet in person, then we have a great solution! Take advantage of the carriers E-app solutions. These solutions are accessed via the carrier websites. If you use an E-app Solution, you can take the app over the phone with the client. All signatures and acknowledgments are done electronically. You do not need to physically meet with the client! We are happy to answer any questions. However, we are preparing a summary of our carrier partners E-app solutions and policies. We are creating a dedicated page to this topic and will share shortly.
We will continue to assess the situation and share more information as it becomes available. Please visit www.annuity1.com for the latest updates.

 

We will continue to be here to support you in these trying times.

Stay safe and Healthy!
