| Run Credit Scores to Catch Savings! |
 In these economically trying times are your clients looking to you for help with lowering their car insurance premiums?
You can help them NOW with one simple step -- run the credit score! By selecting "Verify Credit Level" when you place their application with Agent Alliance Insurance Company, you could save your clients money instantly and there is no catch! It will never cost more than if the policy was rated without credit, and it has no negative impact on their credit score.
Recent research conducted by our company shows that a large number of applications submitted were defaulted to the "Rate without credit" option. But by choosing to run credit you can only lower your client's insurance cost.
Break the habit of selecting "Rate without credit." Select "Verify credit level" on every policy and give your clients a decent chance of putting some money back in their pockets!

Don't Assume... Be Open to Quoting
all Types of Risks
|
 We told you that we reduced rates for a segment of targeted risks throughout the state that we may have not been competitive on before, and now it is showing up on your screens.
It didn't take agents long to notice that InsTrust was winning quotes that previously we were not even in the ballpark on compared to our competitors. We are getting great feedback because of these modifications. So if you are only quoting InsTrust some of the time for the same types of risks, you may not see the full impact of our changes. However, if you quote us all of the time on a wide variety of risks, you will see our improvements!
We also reduced rates for certain targeted risks that we were already competitive on but that we would like to have more of this type of business because of its past performance. These changes went into effect April 6, 2009 for new business and May 9, 2009 for renewals.

| Fresh Ideas Ahead! |
 At InsTrust Insurance Group we are always thinking of fresh ideas to make life easier and more profitable for the independent insurance agent. Currently, we are working on an enhancement to our billing menu in InsForce that has to do with the reinstatement process.
We have a new pop-up window in the works that will be an easy and fast way to learn exactly what is required to reinstate a policy after it has been canceled. It is the final stage of development so we hope to send you the launch date very soon!
