RBC Insurance leaders for December

1) Mia             3,162.00
2) Bobby Lee   2,887.00
3) Wendy        2,705.00
4) Jylissa        2,239.00 
5) Leah           2,062.00
6) Linda          1,740.00
 It isn't tough to sell $1000. worth of insurance. Jylissa sold $1341 just on friday. I hope everyone read the blog on thursday about the man who died in Mexico. No one wants to feel like they could of done more for a client or feel they should of been more insistent on insurance especially if they ever receive a call from a family member like I did last week. Selling insurance is very profitable but more so it protects your clients travel investment and provides the very best medical care available. We will continue with an insurance incentive for Jan., Feb., and Mar. at $100. for 1st, $50. for 2nd and $25. for 3rd. Remember the incentive for Skylink next month 1st $200. 2nd $100. and  3rd $50. on your imagine card for highest skylink sales. We are also giving away a $1000. travel voucher to a lucky client for any sale made in January. Agents and staff are not included but any of your clients will be entered for travel sales in January. If they buy insurance they are entered again. Children under 18 will not receive this but it will be awarded to the parent  who purchased the trip.

BIG INSURANCE HEADACHE!!!

 On monday we had a call from a client who returned from Mexico friday. His father was offered insurance but declined. Last tuesday he went to a clinic at destination after hurting his thigh. After spending a total of $4000. over the next 2 days at this clinic the family was out of money. Needing more treatment they had the sunwing rep talk to the clinic who then agreed to do more services. Before his flight home he received a pain shot but died before he went to the airport. The son was trying to tell us we were to process his insurance but the father declined insurance in the office.
Lesson learned here:
1) RBC medical would have ensured good medical treatment and the client would not wait on a serious medical condition because it was too expensive to treat. This man is almost certainly dead because he wanted to save $35.
2) With Deluxe insurance not only would he have proper medical coverage but repatriation of the body ( returning the body to Canada)would be covered. On monday they didn't know how they were going to get the body home. This has cost someone $25,000. in the past from Mexico
3) If someone refuses insurance make sure you have proof. As in this case the client's son was trying to say we were to blame.
4) Remember to sell insurance with every package or flight.
