Finally, a better answer for life and health sales

As insurance advisors know painfully well, there is many a delay between meeting a prospective client and completing a sale. 

In the life and health product sector there can be good reasons for this.  Medical reports, or insurance quotations, can be unavoidably complex.  But most delays only add frustration. A medical request gets sent to the wrong doctor, for example, and stays there for weeks. This can mean lost business, as clients go cold and give up on a process that has become "too hard".

For many advisors all this has long been a fact of life. But now, Konnect, a New Zealand business systems and information company, is for the first time applying smart technology across the whole sales process. And its new SureApp service is transforming the way policy processing gets done.

For Konnect, the new service follows the success of its SureMed service, now used by most insurers, which has halved the average turn-around time for obtaining medical insurance reports to less than 10 days.
