FullCircl's SmartBroker enables insurance brokers

Prospect with precision

SmartBroker holds company data on over 5m companies in the UK alone; our powerful filters allow you to narrow those companies down to a workable prospecting list.

Harnessing insights derived from structured and unstructured data provides opportunities to engage, establish credibility, and create new leads with well-time, relevant outreach that differentiates you from competitors and increases chances of securing that next meeting.

Data-driven insights to tailor outreach

Receive insights about fundamental changes about your prospects and clients, such as management changes, award wins, contract wins & expansion or changes to their risk profile, allowing you to provide relevant support and guidance when they need it most.

SmartBroker also gives you access to key industry influencers, providing you with market insights on changes in legislation, HSE activity and potential exposures that affect your client's business activities.

Prepare better underwriting submissions

Leveraging data-driven customer intelligence will ensure no knowledge gaps and that the submission process is aligned with customer needs and the requirement of tougher risk-averse underwriting conditions.

SmartBroker can help by providing access to key financial information; details of any previous adverse directorships (liquidations, bankruptcies etc.) and legal information, such as CCJs; combined with details of the corporate family tree, shareholdings, and people data, you can ensure you produce comprehensive, complete, and detailed submissions every time.

Increase client retention

Don't get blindsided by significant changes to your client's business and risk portfolio at renewal. SmartBroker flags potential issues and reasons to engage throughout the period of cover. Be alerted to changes in management; potential mergers and acquisitions; change of premises; relationship triggers, such as award wins; potential financial risks and opportunities.

Cultivate existing book of business

SmartBroker's daily insights into your client's world are the perfect way to trigger the conversation about additional product lines. Upselling and cross-selling mean that not only are policies per account more profitable, but it fosters a stronger sense of trust, establishing the broker as an advisor rather than simply a service provider.
