Willson Tan: An MDRT Mentor at the MDRT Bootcamp, he was quick to adapt and adopt virtual consulting and selling when CoVid-19 got worst in Singapore. Explaining that the new normal now is non face to face selling (NFTF), Wilson offered his insights on how he started thinking out of the box instead of fearing the new norm.
- Create a very positive virtual experience for clients
Wilson prepared all his resources and tools for each meeting online. That includes his PowerPoint slides, Excel spreadsheet, GoalsMapper*, Apple pencil, company resources, EDMs.

- Practise makes perfect
Adopting the Apple pencil instead of pen and paper, Wilson practises writing on his iPad with his Apple pencil to ensure his writing is legible for his clients to read. On top of that, he also role plays with his closest friends and clients, and gather feedback from them.
- Pace and flow of presentation
Wilson pays a lot of attention to this as he ensures his clients will not get lost and lose attention when he presents.

Edwina Woo: A practitioner herself and a working committee member with IFPAS, she recently shared her online practices with 700 over agents and advisers.
Edwina mentioned that her clients are tech savvy in the sense where they know how to transact online, perform ibanking, and able to adapt to new softwares like Zoom.
- Update and segment client list
Edwina categorises clients into three age groups: 25-35, 36-45, 46-55
She also updates their profile by adding notes/tags/labels such as ‘family with young children’, ‘family with elderly parents’ or ‘ Essential worker’.
- Send a personalised email
She advises agents and advisers to show concern by checking in with how their clients are coping with the pandemic situation.
She also provides three options for her clients to choose in the email:
- Does client want an update of their policies?
- Do they want information on the schemes and coverage related to CoVid-19?
- Do they prefer having a policy review over Zoom or a call?
Edwina also ensures she provides her clients with relevant resources according to their tags/labels. She would send activities and resources on entertaining children to families with young children, and she would send fitness apps, promos, online grocery, food delivery and recipes to other clients according to their likes and lifestyles.
- Results and observations from the three age group?
Age25-35: Replies the fastest, has the highest rate of reply but low rate of appointments. Their registered emails are up-to-date
Age 36-45: Majority of replies asked for reviews. They have the most number of rejected email addresses.
Age 46-55: This group replies the slowest, majority of them asked for reviews. They have the most number of rejected email addresses.
- Follow up with a call
Narrow down your call list to those who requested a policy review. Do not forget to call those clients whose email addresses failed and update them on some contents.
- Tweaking presentation to suit CoVid-19
Relating to the current situation, Edwina brings in her new concept: Financial Resilience
It is the ability to withstand life events that impact one’s income and/or assets. Edwina usually informs her clients that insurance is a binding contract that helps them out in unforeseen circumstances (i.e. CoVid-19, death and illnesses).
“Insurance is the only one that can guarantee their retirement income by contract. It’s also a product that will give them a guaranteed pot of gold in the event of death, disability and critical illness. So insurance brings value to them and keeps them financially resilient regardless of what the future may bring” she said.
