Social Networking Being Used to Build Traditional Businesses

Cloudcroft, NM, February 22, 2008 --(PR.com)-- New uses for social networking applications are appearing everyday. One such company is pioneering this market by taking a traditional business model online. Independent insurance offices have been facing competition from online vendors and direct sales organizations.

Online sales have been a growing segment in the insurance market for years as consumers become more confident making important buying decisions online. By using the social networking model it allows the independent broker or agent to meet with clients virtually and have the support of other agents nationwide. Using web conferencing software and their own personal profile pages independent agents now have the same power and tools available as large direct sales companies. While niche social networking sites are showing up throughout the country, RescueMyInsurance.com has emerged as a pioneer in transitioning a traditional business to the online marketplace.

This unique opportunity for independent insurance agents allows agents to access a social networking system that is supported by agents nationwide in real time. While using technology, this innovative company has been able to bring together insurance agents in a way never before seen. “Each agent can communicate, network, and work with each other as though they were in a large office,” says Brandon Flath, founder of RescueMyInsurance.com. Independent agents often face the problem of not having the support and training they would normally enjoy in a large office or company. While using the social networking platform these agents not only have access to training videos and support, but can also work with and communicate with agents throughout the United States. Due to increasing demand to access to the RescueMyInsurance.com systems new servers and site upgrades have recently been implemented to support this increase.

As more businesses look for ways to expand, social networking applications have emerged as an extensive online tool. With comparatively low overhead to that of opening new or larger locations, companies can use the power of the internet to expand throughout the globe. While customer service organizations have started out-sourcing their call centers to individuals in their homes, this same premise might be used in Real Estate, Consultants, Insurance Agents, and a variety of other service fields. RescueMyInsurance.com has independent agents throughout the country who work from home, yet still have the support and social connections of a large physical office in real time.

RescueMyInsurance.com was founded in 2006 to provide independent insurance agents an opportunity to capitalize on the growing market of online insurance sales. The site provides unique health and life products, training and support of a large office. While insurance agents must be appointed to their particular carriers there is no cost to the independent agent for using these services.
