8. FOLLOWING UP

  • If you do a paper app, you must scan it and email it to xo@abnfinancial.com or fax it to 937-630-4559.  If you submit your e-app or a paper app, wait a day or two and then call the carrier to make sure that your application is in underwriting.  If they don't have it yet, then check back in the e-app under the view my cases button and see if you really did submit it.  Then check the next day.  E-apps are usually there immediately.  If the carrier does not have the e-app, then that client may not have e-signed it (if they had to do the email signature process) or you did not actually hit the submit button when you were sitting with the client.

  • Once you know that the app was received then you must manage your pending business with each carrier.  Here is a good video on this concept of managing your pending business - click here

HOW COMMISSIONS WORK

When you write an application the annual premium is what you get promoted on (how promotions work click here).  What you get commissioned on is based on the "Commissionable Premium" which is based on the ARC 100 percentage by product.

Here is a video that explains it in detail - click here

Here is an example:

  • You write an annual premium policy for $1,000 ($83.33/Mo) for a Foresters Strong Foundation Term product.

  • The ARC 100 percentage for this product is 83.33% so you multiply the $1000 AP by 83.33% which is $833.33 commissionable premium

  • Then you take your commission rate which for this example is NAA055 or 55% and multiply your commissionable premium of $833.33 which equals $458.32.

  • You are advanced 75% of this commission so 75% of $458.32 equals $343.74 which is what will be deposited in your account on a Monday, Wednesday or Friday the next week or two.  (If you don't see it in your ARC commission page, please email commissions@naaleads.com with the policy number and carrier.)

  • The remaining $114.58 of your commission is paid "as earned" in months 10, 11 and 12 when the client pays their premium in these months.
