Some Characteristics That Define You At Valor Insurance Brokers, we believe that Producers are successful not simply because of their knowledge base and skill set. A Producer's success with sales is largely driven by specific character traits that set them apart from all their competitors. Here are just a few of those characteristics that will define you and your success on our team: * Eager to Learn. Not only are you excited to meet potential clients, but you're eager to learn as much as you can about them and the industries they work in. You aim to be a lifelong learner, both about people and the products you sell. * Honest. At Valor Insurance Brokers, we know that our products and our services deliver quality and consistent results for our customers. That's why, when we sell our products, we pride ourselves on our earnest sales techniques and our extensive knowledge to close the deal; we are honest and transparent in all our sales interactions. * Team Player. At Valor Insurance Brokers, teamwork is everything - If we don't work as a collaborative and communicative team, we will not effectively serve our customers or provide a strong client experience. * People-Oriented. You thrive building connections with people, helping problem-solve for their needs, and prioritize relationships above all else. This results in customer satisfaction and is a key tenet of our agency's approach. * Resilient. You have a track record for persevering through challenges. At Valor Insurance Brokers, we learn from our failures and use that knowledge to make us better on the phone, in our presentations, and overall as sales professionals. * Active Listener. In our sales approach, listening is just as important as speaking. You gauge a potential client's needs by listening and asking effective questions - that way, you can determine which products and services will solve their needs. * Organized. You will be initiating hundreds of phone calls and meetings. Keeping these conversations straight and knowing when you need to follow up with prospects helps determine your success.
