Commission management is a crucial part of the day-to-day activities of your insurance agency. It is the part of your business that needs as much transparency as your communication and dealings with customers. But, as you also know, managing commissions is not always easy. That is mainly because the commission structure doesn’t look the same as other sales commission structures.
Fortunately, you can use the JenesisNow Commission Manager feature to simplify and automate the commission management process.
Why Your Agency Needs the JenesisNow Commission Manager
Your agents work hard to earn their commissions. If they experience payment delays or don’t receive correct payments, it can cause frustration. If these issues continue, they may even start looking for employment elsewhere. The manual and traditional methods of calculating commissions are risky because of human error and potential inconsistencies.
Not only can manual calculations be incorrect, but it can lead to compliance issues. For instance, if you make a mistake with your agents’ commissions, it may break a carrier-specific rule. This could lead to fines and penalties and even unhappier agents.
Moreover, incorrect commission statements are one of the fastest ways to break down your relationship with your agents. It may come across as dishonesty if you continuously make mistakes with their commission sheets.
You can prevent these issues with the help of JenesisNow’s Commission Manager. This feature will help you set up commission percentages for each user and commission percentages from companies. You can automate and track commissions using downloads and even generate commission reports.
