New Business Processing<br />
The Client Services team tracks all applications and related premiums. Upon receipt, all applications are<br />
immediately assigned <strong>to</strong> a case manager for processing and tracking. Your <strong>Crump</strong>/Allstate case manager inputs<br />
your client’s information/data and begins the preliminary underwriting process (the same day). For all cases, a<br />
confirmation letter stating that the case was received along <strong>with</strong> the requirements received/ordered will be sent <strong>to</strong><br />
you.<br />
As your <strong>Crump</strong>/Allstate case manager tracks your pending applications through policy issue, you will be kept<br />
informed of the progress through Pending Status Reports sent by e-mail, fax, or mail, depending on the method<br />
you choose. We encourage you <strong>to</strong> check your case status on the Allstate/<strong>Crump</strong> web site. After the application has<br />
been approved, your <strong>Crump</strong>/Allstate case manager will continue <strong>to</strong> track the case until the delivery requirements<br />
are received. From there, your <strong>Crump</strong>/Allstate case manager will confirm <strong>with</strong> the carrier that the client’s policy is<br />
“in-force” and work <strong>with</strong> the carrier on the release of the compensation.<br />

<strong>with</strong> you from receipt of the informal inquiry through policy issue. Our carrier relationships allow us <strong>to</strong> negotiate<br />
on your behalf based on your client’s situation. In addition, we can look at your cases from many angles resulting in<br />
aggressive underwriting offers for your clients.<br />

Insurance Carrier Contracting and Appointments<br />
Many insurance companies have a adopted a “Just in Time” appointment approach whereby they require the<br />
submission of a new business application prior <strong>to</strong> appointing an agent. Some insurance companies do require an<br />
appointment be in place prior <strong>to</strong> solicitation of an application or what is referred <strong>to</strong> as a “restricted state” and<br />
information on those can be found in Tools>Pre-Appointments on the <strong>Crump</strong> web site.<br />
A current life insurance license in the state(s) in which you wish <strong>to</strong> do business is required prior <strong>to</strong> solicitation of<br />
an application. Many states require continuing education requirements for the sale of long term care and annuity<br />
products prior <strong>to</strong> solicitation as well.<br />
Commissions<br />
Commissions will be paid <strong>to</strong> you via Allstate and can be viewed on www.allstate.crumplifeinsurance.com in the<br />
