Are You Mr. Lead? Don" t Be; Talk To Me About Your Health Insurance
Poor Mr. Lead, he just submitted his familys personal and confidential information to a website that promised health insurance quotes without reading the fine print. He is now getting telephone calls from all sorts of telemarketers trying to help him with his health insurance needs. The problem is that he doesnt know who is calling him. He has received over ten calls the first day, and over twelve calls the second day. He has become Mr. Lead. He doesnt know which companies are calling, where they are calling from, if they are licensed and compliant, and whether they are even ethical.
It is not a good position to be in, but Mr. Lead earned it. He did not check thoroughly through the website that he chose to submit his information to with respect to his familys health insurance needs. He did not know that the website was basically a front and operated strictly as a lead aggregator that sells information to anyone who will buy it! These lead aggregators do not care to check whether the information buyers are licensed, compliant, ethical, or even care about their clients. The bottom line is that they sell their information to the highest bidder many times over.
Therefore, Mr. Lead is now in trouble. He could be talking to an unscrupulous marketing company that will take his money, sell him an illegal policy, and then sell is information again! If he is lucky, maybe he will just get a fast talking inexperienced agent that will just want to get a sale no matter the costs.
Dont become Mr. Lead and only speak with a company and website that will not sell your information. There are only a few out there, but check around and you will find them. They may not be in the first position in Google, but theyre out there waiting to really help clients get the right health insurance policy for them.
Companies like ehealthinsurance (although they provide little live agent assistance) and others like www.vitalonehealth.com .
Get a good experienced agent to help, do not talk to the big red bow tie agent thats just looking at you like he is looking at his next meal!
