Sales Flash for August 2024

New SwiftTerm® product enhancements on the way

As if fast, easy processing, competitive rates, and instant coverage aren’t enough, soon there will be even more reasons to sell Symetra SwiftTerm.

Starting August 30, 2024, new SwiftTerm features and riders will include:

  • Entity ownership: We’re extending the ownership options on SwiftTerm to include trusts and corporations so we can meet more of your sales needs.
  • Conversion Enhancement Rider: Available for additional cost, this optional rider gives clients the freedom and flexibility to convert to a broader selection of Symetra permanent life insurance products and may also extend the length of their conversion period.
  • Value Added Benefit: Because we know how difficult losing a loved one can be, we’ve partnered with Empathy to provide your clients’ beneficiaries with help after they’re gone. On-demand, personalized services include guidance with grief, closing accounts, probate references, estate settlement and more.

Stay tuned for more details about SwiftTerm’s enhancements, coming August 29.

Cancer Care Compass employee spotlight: Ron’s story

Ron is a longtime Symetra employee who always considered himself a healthy person. He was an avid runner, golfer and Peloton biker, and he ate a healthy diet. So when he got a sore throat in the spring of 2022, Ron assumed it was just another seasonal cold—until he talked to his doctor.

Watch our video to hear Ron’s touching story, and how he hopes Symetra’s industry-first Cancer Care Compass rider package can help others receive the cancer-care support he wished he had during his own cancer journey.

Get on the fast track with Symetra’s Accelerated Underwriting Program

Did you know that 50% of our Accelerated Underwriting Program applications qualify for the Express path? That means you could deliver even faster underwriting offers to your clients with less work for you.

How can you ensure your client’s application goes Express?

  • Clients must be ages 18 to 60, with face amounts up to $1 million.
  • No exam can be submitted or preordered.
  • Simply submit parts I and II of the application and the HIPAA consent form. Leave the rest to us.

It’s important that you don’t order an exam. Doing so will take your client’s application out of consideration for the program’s fastest underwriting path and could impact their rating.

So do yourself and your clients a favor. Submit today. Go electronic. Don’t order the exam. And get your clients coverage quickly and easily with Symetra.
