Illinois Agency Success Story – Erich Held

TrustedChoice.com is just one extra location for us to be listed to really promote our agency. It allows us to show up within search engines.

Held Insurance Agency

Mount Prospect, IL

“[TrustedChoice.com] is just one extra location for us to be listed to really promote our agency, and that’s really what it’s done for us, allowing us to show up within search engines and so forth a little more prevalent than other agencies.”

“We wrote about $25,000 in new business that we believe came off the TrustedChoice[.com] side… It was probably about a 2 to 1 return on investment at that point… And that’s just in a one-year ROI, that’s not looking out the 9 to 10 years that we’re going to be able to keep these people on board. We’re very satisfied overall.”

“Pick any of the companies out there that you can do purchase leads from – the results have been better, from what I’ve gotten, coming from TrustedChoice[.com].”

Keywords: be found, visibility, SEO, edge, website traffic, recommendations, leads, ROI: 2:1, premium amount: $25,000 in the past year, recommend for new agents, quality leads
