Liberty Hierarchy Agency Owner Agency Director Supervising Agents QMs should understand the hierarchy at Liberty National. Communication flows from the top to the bottom. QMs communicate only with the Agency Owner and Agency Directors who retrieve information from their SAs and Agents and report back to the QM.

Quality Control Manager Responsibilities The Quality Control Manager is responsible for overall quality of business and profitability in the Agency. This person reports directly to the Agency Owner and is accountable for decreasing the amount of business that is Declined, Cancelled, and Not Taken and increasing in 13-month persistency to build Agency Owner renewals.

Role of the Quality Manager To help the Agency Owner Build Wealth Front End: Prior to Upload to Home Office Pending Business: Follow-up Work Keeping Business on the books The Best Quality Managers Great communicators Extra set of eyes and ears for Agency Owner Business partner Quality Managers manage three areas: Business prior to upload, Pending Business, and Conservation. The best QMs are great communicators, acting as a second set of eyes and ears for their boss, the Agency Owner.

How is your performance evaluated? Are you a good investment for the Agency Owner? This is evaluated each month based on… Front End: DCN Pending Business: DCN and Persistency Keeping Business on the books: Conservation QM performance is based on DCN, 4-month persistency, and 13-month persistency.

Goals DCN 6% or less: Agents on DCN earn maximum direct pay and 110% bonus 4-Month Persistency 93% or better: Agents earn maximum direct pay and 120% bonus 13-Month Persistency 75% or better: Agents maximize their income through renewals The goal for every agency is to have its quality numbers at: DCN 6% or less: Equates to new agents receiving 110% of their bonus on average. 4-Month Persistency 93% or better: Equates to veteran agents receiving 120% of their bonus on average. 13-Month Persistency 75% or better: Equates to the AO receiving large renewals.

Individual vs. Worksite Individual Business: Written in the home through the needs-based laptop presentation. Premiums paid through checking account Worksite Business: Also known as Payroll Deduction (PD) or Section 125. Written in the workplace to employees. Premiums deducted from employees’ paycheck and sent by employer to Liberty National Defining terminology: Individual Business: Written in the home through the needs-based laptop presentation. Premiums paid through checking account. Worksite Business: Also known as Payroll Deduction (PD) or Section 125. Written in the workplace to employees. Premiums deducted from employees’ paycheck and sent by employer to Liberty National.

Building Wealth = Renewals Renewals are paid starting the 13th month a policy is in force. They are paid every month that the customer makes their premium payment … forever! Defining Terminology: Renewals are paid starting the 13th month a policy is in force. They are paid every month that the customer makes their premium payment … forever!

Did we get the business to the Customer? What is DCN? Did we get the business to the Customer? Let’s define DCN: D is for Declines C is for Cancellations N is for Not Takens The good news is the Declines, Cancellations, and Not Takens are all caused by the same things: Poor training, lack of systems and oversight – and they all can be fixed.

Declines (<1%): Primarily worksite. What is DCN? Declines (<1%): Primarily worksite. Never should have been uploaded to Home Office. Cancellations (3%): Primarily individual. Cancelled by customer or Home Office. Not-Takens (6%): Primarily worksite. Company never received any money. Company DCN 10% as of November 2014 Let’s define DCN: D is for Declines C is for Cancellations N is for Not Takens The good news is the Declines, Cancellations, and Not Takens are all caused by the same things: Poor training, lack of systems and oversight – and they all can be fixed.

Agents Direct Pay and Bonus is impacted by DCN their first 7 months An agent’s direct pay and bonus are impacted by his DCN his first seven months of production. The same applies for an agent promoted to a Agency Director or an Agency Director promoted to Agency Owner. TMK1536 1214 Agent training only. Not for sales use. 19

Agents receive maximum direct pay and 100% of bonus first two months. An agent’s direct pay and bonus are impacted by his DCN his first seven months of production. The same applies for an agent promoted to a Agency Director or an Agency Director promoted to Agency Owner. TMK1536 1214 Agent training only. Not for sales use. 20

How is DCN calculated? Submitted Premium Declined Premium Cancelled Premium DCN is calculated by adding all the bad stuff (Declined, Cancelled, and Not Taken premium) and dividing it by SUMITTED premium. DCN is the gage of what type of job you do getting the business to the customer. Not Taken Premium

Example of 6% DCN $10,000 Submitted Premium $0 Declines $200 Cancels Here’s an example of an 8% DCN. $800 in declined, cancelled, not taken premium divided by $10,000 in submitted premium. Please note what would happen if the agent had a $1,000 Decline for example. All of the sudden, his DCN goes to 18, dramatically impacting his pay. The point is, every app matters and can help or hurt your pay. $400 Not Takens

So, if I have a $1,000 policy Declined, Cancelled or Not Taken, how much clean business do I have to write to get all my bonus? Here’s an example of an 8% DCN. $800 in declined, cancelled, not taken premium divided by $10,000 in submitted premium. Please note what would happen if the agent had a $1,000 Decline for example. All of the sudden, his DCN goes to 18, dramatically impacting his pay. The point is, every app matters and can help or hurt your pay.

$10,000 $10,000 Submitted Premium $1,000 DCN Here’s an example of an 8% DCN. $800 in declined, cancelled, not taken premium divided by $10,000 in submitted premium. Please note what would happen if the agent had a $1,000 Decline for example. All of the sudden, his DCN goes to 18, dramatically impacting his pay. The point is, every app matters and can help or hurt your pay.

Example: Calculating Individual DCN April 25 May 24 June July Aug $4,000 $4,000 $4,000 1 2 3 Submitted Business Reports Published Submitted Business $100 $350 $350 $200 1 2 3 DECLINES, CANCELLATIONS, NOT TAKENS 4 For our example, let’s say our Agent has submitted four thousand dollars in individual Life premium on Bank Budget mode each month. The Agent has a total of one thousand dollars in Declines, Cancels and Not Takens during this period. Notice that Individual business DCN measures three months of submitted and four months of DCN’d premium. This means that the business written this month will not show on the DCN calculation next month. Therefore, “I’ll write more business” is a flawed quality correction plan. Declined, Cancelled, Not Taken Premium DCN Calculated

Example: Calculating Payroll Deduction DCN Feb 25 March 24 April May June July Aug $4,000 $4,000 $4,000 1 2 3 Submitted Business Reports Published Submitted Business $0 $0 $400 $0 $0 $600 VO Now let’s look at how payroll deduction D-C-N is calculated. For our example, let’s say our Agent has submitted four thousand dollars in premium on Payroll Deduction mode each month. The Agent has a total of one thousand dollars in Declines, Cancels and Not Takens. Notice that Worksite business DCN measures three months of submitted and six months of DCN’d premium. This means that the business written this month will not show on the DCN calculation for three months. Therefore, “I’ll write more business” is a flawed quality correction plan. DECLINES, CANCELLATIONS, NOT TAKENS 1 2 3 4 5 6 Declined, Cancelled, Not Taken Premium DCN Calculated

Got the business to the Customer, do they keep it? What is 4-month Persistency? Got the business to the Customer, do they keep it? Let’s define DCN: D is for Declines C is for Cancellations N is for Not Takens The good news is the Declines, Cancellations, and Not Takens are all caused by the same things: Poor training, lack of systems and oversight – and they all can be fixed.

Definitions Persistency: Premium issued and paid four months or longer, divided by total issued business based on policy effective date Once an agent reaches his eighth month after submitting business, his quality is measured by persistency. Persistency is a truer look at the quality of the agent’s business as it is analyzing issued business and whether or not the customer is keeping the policy four months or longer.

Agents Direct Pay and Bonus is impacted by Persistency Months 8 and beyond An agent’s direct pay and bonus are impacted by his Persistency starting with his eighth month of production. The clock starts with his first issued business. The same applies for an agent promoted to a Agency Director or an Agency Director promoted to Agency Owner. The challenge with Persistency is that an agent may have overcome DCN challenges, but once they flip to persistency, it measures the first three months of issued business of that agent’s career, which is likely to be the least quality business they have written. TMK1536 1214 Agent training only. Not for sales use. 29

Example of 93% 4-Month Persistency $10,000 Issued Premium $9,300 Paid 4 Months How is Persistency calculated? Take $8,800 of premium paid four months or longer and divide it by the $10,000 in issued premium to get an 88% persistency.

$8,800 $8,800 Issued Premium $1,000 Lapse Here’s an example of an 8% DCN. $800 in declined, cancelled, not taken premium divided by $10,000 in submitted premium. Please note what would happen if the agent had a $1,000 Decline for example. All of the sudden, his DCN goes to 18, dramatically impacting his pay. The point is, every app matters and can help or hurt your pay.

Example: Calculating Persistency Dec 25 Jan 24 Feb March April May June July Aug $5,000 $5,000 $5,000 1 2 3 Submitted Business Issued Business Reports Published $12,000 Paid 4 months or greater VO For our example, let’s say our Agent has issued five thousand dollars each month for a total of fifteen thousand dollars. Of that fifteen thousand dollars, twelve thousand dollars of premium is paid four months or greater. Therefore, the agent’s persistency would be 80%. Again, because we can’t go back in time, lapsing business must be addressed as soon as it lapses. Persistency Calculated

Agent training only. Not for sales use. New DCN and Persistency Reports are published on the 25th of each month. Reports for DCN and Persistency are updated on the 25th of each month. Those quality numbers impact pay for the following month. This is a big day in the life of a quality manager as it is your report card. TMK1536 1214 Agent training only. Not for sales use. 33

How much of my hard work, effort, and energy is paying me a renewal? What is 13-month Persistency? How much of my hard work, effort, and energy is paying me a renewal? Let’s define DCN: D is for Declines C is for Cancellations N is for Not Takens The good news is the Declines, Cancellations, and Not Takens are all caused by the same things: Poor training, lack of systems and oversight – and they all can be fixed.

Agent training only. Not for sales use. 13th Month Persistency is the most important measure of quality in regards to wealth building Thirteen month persistency is the most important measurement of quality because it tells us how much of our hard work is paying us a renewal. TMK1536 1214 Agent training only. Not for sales use. 35

Example: Calculating 13-month persistency APRIL 13 MAY 13 JUNE 13 JULY 13 AUG 13 SEP 13 OCT 13 NOV 13 DEC 13 JAN 14 FEB 14 MAR APR 14 MAY 14 JUNE14 JULY14 AUG14 $3300 $3300 $3300 $7,500 Thirteen month persistency is the most important measurement of quality because it tells us how much of our hard work is paying us a renewal. Paid 13 months Issued Business

Example of 75% 13-Month Persistency $10,000 Issued Premium $7,500 Paid 13 Months In this example, the agent issued $12,000 in the period being evaluated and $9,000 of that business was still paying premium 13 months later. That’s 13-month persistency of 75%.

Why all this focus on quality? Policy must be in force 18-24 months before Liberty makes a profit Whole Life Policy 60% Agent Commission of Annual Premium 10% Supervising Agent Commission of AP 35% Agency Director Commission of AP 25% Agency Owner Commission of AP 130% of First-Year Premium Plus Home Office expense for marketing, underwriting, printing, mailing policy, etc. Liberty National is willing to reward agencies that write good business because that is how the company makes money and customers have their protection in force at the time of need.

Agent Services on www.libertynational.com Click on ‘Reports’ How do I check my DCN and Persistency? Agent Services on www.libertynational.com Click on ‘Reports’ Once an agent reaches his eighth month after submitting business, his quality is measured by persistency. Persistency is a truer look at the quality of the agent’s business as it is analyzing issued business and whether or not the customer is keeping the policy four months or longer.

How does Quality impact pay & retention? 1. Chargebacks Months Premium Paid Chargeback % 0-2 months 100% 3 months 90% 4 months 80% 5 months 70% 6 months 60% Months Premium Paid Chargeback % 7 months 50% 8 months 40% 9 months 30% 10 months 20% 11 months 10% Commission chargebacks are assessed based on the scale in the Guide to Growth. If the first two month’s premiums are not paid, it’s a 100% chargeback.

How does Quality impact pay & retention? 1. Chargebacks 2. Direct Pay submit advance commissions Direct Pay submit advance is based on the agent’s DCN. The percentage not paid in direct pay is deposited into the commission account. Agents with a DCN of 31% or more receive no direct pay.

How does Quality impact pay & retention? 1. Chargebacks 2. Direct Pay submit advance commissions Direct Pay submit advance is based on the agent’s Persistency if they have a Persistency, meaning they’ve had eight months of issued business. The percentage not paid in direct pay is deposited into the commission account. Agents with a Persistency of 72% or less receive no direct pay.

Agency Owner/Director example 6 agents on team 4 agents on DCN, 2 on Persistency Agent 1: DCN 10 (Maximum direct pay) Agent 2: DCN 18 (Direct Pay reduced 10%) Agent 3: DCN 22 (Direct Pay reduced 30%) Agent 4: DCN 31 (No direct pay) Agent 5: Persistency 79 (Direct pay reduced 10%) Agent 6: Persistency 72 (No direct pay) * Best case scenario: Assumes agent has positive commission account. Managers are paid direct pay based on the DCN or Persistency, whichever the agent is on. In this example, the manager has four agents on DCN and two on persistency. Agent 1 has a DCN of 10 so he is receiving maximum direct pay. Agent 2 has a DCN of 18 so he is having his direct pay reduced by 10%. Agent 3 has a DCN of 22 so he is having his direct pay reduced by 30%. Agent 4 has a DCN of 31 so his is receiving no direct pay. Agent 5 has a Persistency of 79 so his direct pay is being reduced by 10%. Agent 6 has a Persistency of 72 so he is receiving no direct pay. The manager’s direct pay would be impacted accordingly for each agent.

How does Quality impact pay & retention? 1. Chargebacks 2. Direct Pay submit advance commissions 3. DCN: Bonus multiplier or reduction first 7 months Agents receive 100% of their bonus if their DCN is 10%. Concentrate on the left side. All I ever wanted to do was work at a place that pays me what I’m worth. If I’m better than average, I want to make more. Of course, if you are below average on your quality, your bonus is reduced, including the elimination of the bonus if the DCN is 19 or higher. Note the difference between a 6 DCN and a 14 DCN, which doesn’t sound like much of a difference. But the agent with a 6 DCN is receiving 30% more bonus than the agent with a 14.

Agents earn 100% of their bonus if their Persistency is between 88 and 86%. Notice the left side of the chart. Agents can earn up to an additional 30% of their bonus with a great Persistency. Of course, persistency of 74% or below and the agent cannot earn a bonus.

Oh by the way … Career Track On the Career Track, for promotion to every position, the company evaluates the candidate’s quality for promotion. We aren’t going to promote people with poor quality to teach other how to write business with poor quality.

How does Quality impact pay & retention? Last but certainly not least… Renewals Renewals Renewals Renewals Renewals Renewals Renewals Renewals Renewals Renewals Renewals Renewals Renewals Renewals Renewals How important is this for new hires that are independent contractors and receiving vested renewals? That’s why 13-month persistency is so important. It’s the measure of what percentage of the business pays a renewal.

Agent training only. Not for sales use. So how does that translate to dollars? TMK1536 1214 Agent training only. Not for sales use. 50

Agent training only. Not for sales use. What does an 8% vs. 18% DCN mean to an Agent in his first seven months with a $1,425 per week average? Let’s look at 2 agents who both write the same amount of business in their first 7 months with the company -- $1,425 per week. That’s the amount needed on average to qualify for Torch Club so this is a solid agent that is working every week. What is the difference in takehome pay if one agent has an 8 DCN and the other has an 18 DCN? TMK1536 1214 Agent training only. Not for sales use. 51

8 DCN Agent takes home $8,400 more Take Home Pay 8 DCN Agent takes home $8,400 more The agent with an 8 DCN takes home $8,400 more than an agent with an 18 DCN over the first seven months WITH THE SAME AMOUNT OF PRODUCTION!! TMK1536 1214 Agent training only. Not for sales use. 52

II. Reviewing Applications in the Portal TMK1536 1214 Agent training only. Not for sales use. 53

When and where do I review apps? Every day. First thing when you come in and last thing before you leave. Don’t let it stack up on you. Advantage of Daily Upload: App doesn’t effect Agency DCN if not paid on it and doesn’t count toward bonus Opportunity to make bonus if app changed to trial or cancelled It’s the World Wide Web. You can access from anywhere you have an Internet connection Find a quiet place where you are uninterrupted You call for others, they do not come to you Review apps first and last thing every day.

Application Review Deadlines Eapps must be in portal by midnight Sunday to be reviewed on Monday Eapps signed by customer on Monday must be in the portal by noon Central to be reviewed on Monday Paper apps/CODs/Term Conversions, etc., must be turned in to QM by 9 a.m. Central to be reviewed on Monday Eapps must be in the portal by midnight Sunday to be reviewed on Monday. Eapps signed by customer on Monday must be in portal by noon Central Monday. Paper apps/CODs/Term Conversions must be in Quality Manager’s hand by 9 a.m. Central Monday. Miss those deadlines and the app gets reviewed on Tuesday and the agent has a jump on next week’s production.

Application Review Process Application Written by Agent (7 days to upload) Agent uploads App to Portal Weekly deadline Monday 3:30 p.m. Central 10 days to upload Once an application is uploaded, it cannot be recalled QM should only hold apps: Applicant requests specific draft date Worksite case awaiting third applicant Only bad things happen when apps sit on an Agent’s laptop: Customer experiences a claim Laptop gets stolen, gets a virus, etc. QM does not have time to do their job properly because of Monday upload deadline and things get missed As an Agency Owner, how do you verify production against a WAR report without the apps being in the portal daily?

A-250 vs. Batch Applications The A-250 application is the individual life insurance application (the one with 32 questions). When submitted to the Home Office, they go to an underwriter for review prior to issue. All other applications are considered Batch applications. When submitted to the Home Office, they go through a computer and issue the following day.

Using the Portal Use Google Chrome browser to access the portal Access the Portal by clicking the icon on Agent Services To access the Agent Portal, log in to www.libertynational.com Agent Services and click on Agent Portal.

Using the Portal Once logged in, look at the Submitted Applications box, which shows the Pending Annual Premium ($7,579 in this example) and number of Pending Applications (45 in this example) Once you are logged in, look at the Submitted Applications section. The pending count shows how many applications are waiting to be reviewed and the pending annual premium shows how much annual premium those policies account for.

Portal Columns Click on the column headers to sort by that column If it’s an individual policy, there will be no Franchise # Date Signed = When customers signed up Date Uploaded = When agent uploaded to portal Agents should upload daily The column headers sort when clicked. The Writing Agent listed is the Agent that logged in to the eapp. If the app was taken on Payroll Deduction, there will be a Franchise Number in the Franchise # column. If no franchise number, the app was taken on bank draft. The Date Signed is the date and time the application was signed by the customer. The Date Uploaded is the date and time the application was uploaded from the Agent’s computer to the portal. Applications can stay on an Agent’s computer for up to seven days before being automatically uploaded to the portal.

First, make sure the employee is eligible to purchase coverage by reviewing the roster. If the apps are from a re-enrollment, use the AL915 Worksite Management Information Report to make sure the coverage is not a duplication or exceeds coverage limits As far as the actual apps, because these applications are simplified, you only have to pay attention to a couple of questions: No. 9 on Group Term and the Medicaid Question. All other questions, if they had been answered yes, the application would not have been submitted to the portal.

Initial Draft Initial Bank Draft happens first business day after upload to home office. That’s why the language in the What Comes Next form say the draft will occur in the “next couple of days” because agents don’t know when the app will leave the portal.

Always choose a draft date between the first and the 10th of the month so that the applicant is not double drafted. The date selected in the eapp is the date of the second and subsequent drafts. The initial draft is deducted as soon as the policy is uploaded to the home office.

Eligible Employees To be eligible, employees must: Work 30+ hours per week Been employed 6 months Be in an approved industry Not be leased or contracted

How to Read the Roster…. If the enrollment period ends in July 2013, which employees would not be eligible? On an enrollment, every agent must have a copy of the employee roster to avoid writing business on employees that are not eligible – which leads to declined policies.

Worksite Management Information Report Report AL915: Updates Saturdays Worksite Management Information Report which shows the existing coverage and face amounts. This will avoid policies being declined for multiple policies on the same insured and coverage exceeding limits.

Collecting phone numbers on the eapp… Only reason we would call a Worksite customer is if they have left their job. So why would we only collect an office number? On the worksite eapp, make sure we’re getting a home phone number. If we only collect a work number and they leave their job, we don’t have a number to contact them to move the policy to bank draft.

Group Term No. 9 Only question on Group Term that can be answered ‘yes’ and be issued standard Can only be ‘yes’ for high blood pressure HBP must be controlled (140/90) The only question on the Group Term application that can be answered Yes and the policy still be issued is No. 9. But because the question asks multiple things, the Agent must ask more questions. The answer can only be to blood pressure. If it is a yes answer to No. 9 on high blood pressure the Agent should ascertain whether the BP is under control, last reading of 140/90 or lower. Otherwise pivot to ALX or Career Life Plus.

E-app On Batch apps, the e-app will not allow the application to be completed if the height and weight limits are exceeded You don’t have to review a build chart on group term and career life plus.

E-app On Batch apps, if the applicant answers a question ‘Yes’ that would cause it to be declined, the agent receives this message and is not allowed to complete the app You don’t have to review most of the health question because if the applicant had answered yes, the agent would not have been able to upload that app to the portal.

E-app On Batch apps, if an applicant answers ‘Yes’ to the Medicaid question, the box below will appear. A yes answer to the Medicaid question is a red flag because the customer will receive no benefits if they have a claim. The company mails them a letter after the policy issues that explains this and that’s when customers usually cancel.

Medicare On Batch apps, if the applicant answers ‘Yes’ to the Medicare question, the box below appears and the app cannot be completed. A yes answer on the Medicare question is an automatic decline.

Individual vs. Worksite Individual Business (Bank Draft): Written in the home through the needs-based laptop presentation. Premiums paid through checking account Worksite Business: Also known as Payroll Deduction (PD) or Section 125. Written in the workplace to employees. Premiums deducted from employees’ paycheck and sent by employer to Liberty National

Where can I find this information? Individual underwriting rules found in the Worksite Agent Guide on Agent Services:

Worksite Agent Guide The Worksite Agent Guide includes guidelines on eligible industries and employees, as well as descriptions on how to correctly fill out all worksite approval paperwork.

Enrollments and Re-enrollments Worksite cases have an initial enrollment period often called the Annual Enrollment The second and subsequent enrollments are called re-enrollments. They can happen every six months. They are often called mid-year enrollments

Use the Electronic Packet Value of Electronic Packets No omissions Completes duplicate info Sets correct enrollment, deduction, and effective dates Gives reminder to get roster

Worksite Approval Paperwork Agent turns in Approval Paperwork to Quality Manager with signed roster (hard copy or email) Quality Manager reviews paperwork and corrects any missing/inaccurate information Quality Manager gets the paperwork signed by Agency Owner Quality Manager emails signed paperwork to worksite@libnat.com Agency Owner and Quality Manager receive approval email from Worksite Department This is the workflow of worksite paperwork.

So what is the QM reviewing? Must have signed roster Must have good contact information, preferably multiple contacts and email addresses Payment mode Verify enrollment dates, deduction date, and effective dates are correct. Electronic packets do this automatically These are the key points a QM should be reviewing on the worksite approval paperwork prior to going to the Agency Owner for a signature.

Reviewing the Packet The key information is found on the Payroll Deduction Billing Information Sheet.

Reviewing the Packet Number of eligible employees. Must be at least three. The smaller the case, the more diligent QM has to be getting first bill paid. The more contact info, the better. Owner is not always best person to verify roster. The fewer the number of eligible employees, that more oversight the case will require because the owner is typically the bookkeeper as well and they are very busy/haven’t done deductions before. Get multiple contact information, particularly email addresses.

Reviewing the Packet 4. Any mode selected other than Monthly requires a conversation with the Agent/Manager 8. Make sure dates are correct on paper packets The frequency payments should be sent in should be monthly. If it is anything other than monthly, that warrants a call with the manager. Non-monthly payment modes, don’t generate a late bill and the reports don’t update as accurately. Plus would you rather have to rely on a bookkeeper sending 12 checks a year vs. 24, 26, or 52?

Understanding Billing Payment Frequency TMK1536 1214 Agent training only. Not for sales use. 180

Payment Modes The selections made on the Worksite Approval Paperwork are critical They determine the rates the employees will be quoted, based on their deduction type And they determine how much premium and how often the company will be billed The frequency payments should be sent in should be monthly. If it is anything other than monthly, that warrants a call with the manager. Non-monthly payment modes, don’t generate a late bill and the reports don’t update as accurately. Plus would you rather have to rely on a bookkeeper sending 12 checks a year vs. 24, 26, or 52?

Payment Modes Payment Mode Number Bills Per Year Weekly 52 Bi-Weekly 26 Semi-Monthly 24 Every 4 Weeks 13 Monthly 12 The frequency payments should be sent in should be monthly.

Plus would you rather have to rely on a bookkeeper sending 12 checks a year vs. 24, 26, or 52?

Payment Modes We always want the employer to pay their bill monthly. Why? Most other bills (rent, electric) are paid monthly Fewest number of times they have to pay Any other payment mode, they will not receive a late bill Reporting easier to inspect The frequency payments should be sent in should be monthly. If it is anything other than monthly, that warrants a call with the manager. Non-monthly payment modes, don’t generate a late bill and the reports don’t update as accurately. Plus would you rather have to rely on a bookkeeper sending 12 checks a year vs. 24, 26, or 52?

Monthly Bill Bookkeeper should pay the amount on the bill Every 13 weeks the deductions and billing will balance out to $0 The frequency payments should be sent in should be monthly.

Bi-weekly vs. Semi-monthly There are 52 weeks in a year Bi-weekly pay mode means 26 payments. They should be set up on Monthly bill to reduce number of payments Semi-monthly pay mode means 24 payments. They should be set up on Monthly bill to reduce number of payments Some companies pay their employees bi-weekly (26 times a year) but on two paychecks a year, they don’t take any deductions, meaning they should be on a semi-monthly bill (24 times a year) The frequency payments should be sent in should be monthly. If it is anything other than monthly, that warrants a call with the manager. Non-monthly payment modes, don’t generate a late bill and the reports don’t update as accurately.

Tracking Existing Cases TMK1536 1214 Agent training only. Not for sales use. 215

Why track existing cases? To ensure prompt payment: Keeps commissions and renewals coming Identify issues with the business Make sure they are paid current before re-enrollments Do not re-enroll a case that past due for payment There are many advantages to tracking and servicing existing worksite cases.

Tracking Existing Cases Use Qlikview Worksite Dashboard Updates Tuesdays ID cases 15+ days past due Use the Qlikview Worksite Dashboard to track payments for existing cases.

Tracking Existing Cases Use AL04 Worksite List by Franchise If a case appears to be late, verify on AL915 Worksite Management Info Report before calling the business Sometimes the case has paid but one policy has not, making the case appear late Use the Qlikview Worksite Dashboard to track payments for existing cases.

How the Money Works Agency Owners can move commissions/renewals to: Agents / Supervising Agents Agency Director / Regional Agency Directors Licensed Quality Manager The newly commissioned person must have performed work to conserve the business Agency Owner continues receiving, if already getting paid, or begins receiving commissions/renewals, if not Agency Director continues receiving, if already getting paid, or begins receiving commissions/renewals, if not

How the Money Works If there are unpaid first-year commissions, they will be paid into the commission account Renewals will be paid as-earned starting with the first premium payment following conservation Renewals will be paid at the rate it was payable at the time the policy was originally issued

Original Writing Agent Original writing agent should always receive first opportunity to conserve As always, if the original writing agent conserves the business, they keep getting commissions/renewals Recommendation is to give original agent 7 days to conserve. After that, open to all Agency

Agent training only. Not for sales use. Waiving Premiums TMK1536 1214 Agent training only. Not for sales use. 228

Waiving Premium Rules Will waive up to three months premium Will only waive premiums that are missed Do not waive future premiums When moving customers from payroll deduction to bank draft, we can waive up to two months premium but only premiums that have been missed. For example, if the policy came off the bill due for Jan. 1 and we contact the customer on Feb. 5 and they wanted to keep their coverage, we would waive the January premium and draft them for February. They haven’t missed February.

Waiving Premium Rules Today is July 10 Paid to 7/1 = waive 0 months. Draft for July Paid to 6/1 = waive 1 month (June). Draft for July Paid to 5/1 = waive 2 months (May & June). Draft for July Paid to 4/1 = waive 3 months (April, May & June) Importance of getting bills paid on time When moving customers from payroll deduction to bank draft, we can waive up to two months premium but only premiums that have been missed. For example, if the policy came off the bill due for Jan. 1 and we contact the customer on Feb. 5 and they wanted to keep their coverage, we would waive the January premium and draft them for February. They haven’t missed February.

When do we draft? Premium drafted as soon as conservation form received in the home office Example: Today is July 17 Policy is due for June 1 Waive June payment Waive July payment (since after July 15) Draft on July 18 when form received in home office for August premium Draft next on September 1st through 10th for September premium When moving customers from payroll deduction to bank draft, we can waive up to two months premium but only premiums that have been missed. For example, if the policy came off the bill due for Jan. 1 and we contact the customer on Feb. 5 and they wanted to keep their coverage, we would waive the January premium and draft them for February. They haven’t missed February.

Waiving Premium Rules The 15th is the cutoff each month for waiving premium On July 10, if a customer is due for July 1 we wouldn’t waive premium On July 16, if a customer is due for July 1 we would waive July’s premium and draft for August Remember, each time a month’s premium is waived, everyone involved is waiving that month’s commission or renewal When moving customers from payroll deduction to bank draft, we can waive up to two months premium but only premiums that have been missed. For example, if the policy came off the bill due for Jan. 1 and we contact the customer on Feb. 5 and they wanted to keep their coverage, we would waive the January premium and draft them for February. They haven’t missed February.

Reinstatement Bonus Transmittal

Who are we calling? Lapse list emailed as spreadsheet by Home Office 22nd of each month from AUTOMAIL@libnat.com List is pure lapses. No cash value, Extended Insurance, Reduced Paid Up, Death Claims

The List Quality Control Manager should be in charge of distributing and tracking lapsed policies All Reinstatements are turned in to the Quality Control Manager so she can submit to Home Office and provide Agency Owner info on who is doing the best job working them (play the hot hand) Don’t distribute all the leads at once Lapses don’t go bad, people’s situations change. That’s why we are distributing multiple months

Sorting the List The list is sorted by ZIP Code to group leads Then it is sorted by Payor Name so all policies are grouped Then it is sorted by Insured Name

The List Plan Codes Cheat Sheet should be printed out for call session. Codes not listed can be found in the Policy Prefix Book Last Paid: If there is a letter in this column, the last premium was paid via Payroll Deduction Issue Date: Date policy originally purchased. Good for reminding customer how long they have been paying for policy

The List DPT: Date Paid To. This is the last month the customer paid a premium. Used to calculate how many premiums the Agent will need to collect Payor Name and Insured Name can be different. Examples include husband paying for wife, grandparent paying for grandchild, etc. Ask for the Payor when you call. Some will have no phone number or bad phone numbers. We have an address, go see them. PO Boxes use zabasearch.com

Getting Policy Info Because the lapsed policy is not typically in the Agent’s agency, the Agent will need the Quality Manager to pull the customer’s info from the Field Inquiry screen prior to going on the appointment

What do we say? This is a customer service call, not a sales call!

What do we say? No matter the response, set the appointment.
