INSURANCE
Telemarketing & leadgeneratievoor de verzekeringsbranche
Telemarketing for insurance can be a highly effective complement to your sales and marketing activities. We possess extensive experience in this domain; for nearly 50 years, we have commercially collaborated with numerous insurance companies to foster their growth. Over the years, legislation concerning acquisition in the insurance sector has been significantly tightened. We comply with all AFM requirements, enabling us to assist you reliably. This also applies to acquisition for other financial services.
- Within a single, no-obligation consultation, you will gain immediate insight into your target audience, achievable appointment volumes, and the optimal approach for new business acquisition, reactivation, or a combination of both.
Telemarketing for insurance is subject to specific requirements.
For telemarketing pertaining to insurance and other financial services, regulations differ significantly from general telemarketing practices. The Dutch Authority for Financial Markets (AFM) has stipulated conditions and requirements in the Financial Supervision Act (Wft) for all parties engaged in commercial activities in any capacity. Even if you outsource a portion of the acquisition process, you, as the client, remain responsible.
Therefore, when outsourcing, you are obligated to collaborate with a Wft-certified company. Provite, as an agency, is Wft-certified, and its employees are also individually Wft-certified. This enables us to collaborate commercially without you needing to be concerned about your liability.
Beyond legal conditions, telemarketing for insurance also entails distinct commercial requirements. After all, your business client or prospect is not purchasing a product to generate revenue. They are managing risk for their company, consistently weighing the relationship between the risk to their organization and the costs of mitigating it. This assessment necessitates a tailored commercial approach. With over 45 years of experience in the insurance sector, we are uniquely positioned to provide expert assistance.
Outbound and inbound
A significant portion of our telemarketing is outbound, involving the reliable warm or cold approach of companies with the objective of retention, upselling, or new business acquisition. We execute this on your behalf and under your corporate identity, fostering trust and growth.
In the event of legislative changes, for instance, concerning absenteeism prevention or liability, it is possible that numerous clients may contact you with inquiries within a short timeframe. In such scenarios, we can support you by serving as an 'overflow' for your in-house customer contact center. When call volumes increase, you can redirect excess calls to our inbound telemarketing team. We possess all the necessary technical facilities and professional expertise to seamlessly assume the service functions of your internal staff. This enables you to respond flexibly to increased market demand and avoid missing commercial opportunities.
Optimal training for your internal team
With over 45 years of experience in telemarketing for both large and small companies within the insurance sector, we possess profound insight into effective and ineffective commercial strategies. We can also transfer this expertise to your internal employees. We regularly train groups of account managers to enhance their success, particularly in new business acquisition.
THE DIVERSITY IN MARKETS, PROPOSITIONS, AND PEOPLE: THAT IS WHAT MAKES IT SO ENGAGING.

You are in good company
Nearly fifty years of experience
Als eerste bureau in Nederland zijn wij in 1977 begonnen met het maken van afspraken voor accountmanagers en andere diensten op het gebied van telemarketing. Vanaf het prille begin mochten we enkele van de grootste aanbieders op het gebied van verzekeringen bijstaan. In de loop der jaren hebben wij voor bijna alle grote partijen, verzekeringsmaatschappijen én tussenpersonen, acquisitiewerkzaamheden verricht en trainingen gegeven. Daarbij lag (en ligt) het accent op b2b, vooral gericht op grote en middelgrote bedrijven en organisaties.
Crucial to our success in this domain are our people. We maintain a specialized team of experienced professionals, several of whom previously served as intermediaries. They possess an in-depth understanding of the market, its terminology, and the specific needs of those responsible for risk management within large organizations. This extensive experience, accumulated through collaborations with numerous insurers and intermediaries over many years, is now at your disposal.
The target audience seeks more than just ‘an insurance policy’
Over the years, the profession has evolved from merely selling insurance policies to providing comprehensive risk management advisory services. This not only sounds different but is fundamentally distinct. Risk management is a specialized discipline that necessitates a professional approach. Even when setting appointments for your account managers, this demands a higher level of expertise from the individual initiating the initial telephone contact. Our insurance team possesses this extensive knowledge.
Duty of care and relationship management: opportunities for growth
The government (AFM) imposes stringent requirements on the insurance sector regarding duty of care and relationship management. While this creates certain obligations, it also presents significant commercial opportunities. We have developed a comprehensive and successful concept through which we periodically engage with your existing clients. We assess their current situation and corresponding risk profile, and where opportunities for expansion arise, we promptly arrange an appointment for one of your account managers.
Through this form of relationship management, you fulfill your duty of care, and your clients demonstrably appreciate this dedicated attention. Furthermore, this approach provides early-stage opportunities for upselling. The existing relationship between your company and your clients inherently fosters trust, forming the optimal foundation for generating additional revenue. However, do your internal staff possess the capacity to regularly engage with your entire client base? Contact us if you believe potential opportunities are currently being overlooked.
We do not subscribe to the efficacy of short-term courses that merely inundate sales professionals with new information. The practical application of such knowledge in daily operations often remains uncertain.
Our approach involves developing bespoke training programs for each company, wherein we train your commercial personnel directly in their operational environment, immediately integrating theoretical knowledge with practical application. Concurrently, we collaborate to analyze target audiences and formulate a distinctive value proposition. Consequently, as a client, you benefit from the acquired knowledge from day one. Furthermore, sales professionals are observed to assimilate and retain new knowledge and skills more rapidly through this method.
Also for other forms of financial services
For telemarketing pertaining to other financial services, reliability, compliance with legal requirements, and specialized expertise are equally paramount. We regularly apply this expertise across various domains, including:
- banking services and financing;
- leasing and factoring;
- investments and business consultancy;
- accountancy.
The target audience for the acquisition of these services is typically found within the upper echelons of the business community: owners and directors, financial directors, CFOs, and controllers. We possess the capability to reach these executives and engage them in substantive discussions. Many of our senior staff members have, after all, been entrepreneurs themselves. This enables us to build the trust and generate the interest necessary to secure appointments for your advisors.
Shall we discuss your commercial strategy?
Uitbesteden van een deel van wat de hartslag van uw bedrijf is: uw sales. Best een hele stap. Laten we gewoon eens met elkaar praten; no strings attached.

Dat wordt in ieder geval een interessant en leerzaam gesprek.
The initial step towards new business…
It starts with a conversation, either online or on-site. You will outline your objectives, target audiences, and your exceptional product and/or service.
