Our 14-Point ChallengeHow AHCP Provides More Value Than The Competition

Our goal is to make your life easier. We focus exclusively on the agent, and the fact that we work with multiple highly-rated carriers means that we have more products available in more states for you to sell. But that’s just the beginning. Take a look at our 14-Point Matrix and compare our benefits to the rest of the industry:

AHCP Other Companies1. Management Our senior executives have over 100 years of combined

sales and management experience in the healthcare insurance industry. As a marketing company, our focus is on you, the agent.

Does their management team have the industry expe-rience to provide a stable, supportive environment for agents? Are they looking out for you, or are they more worried about their shareholders?

2. Carriers We license you quickly with multiple highly-rated car-riers and provide a centralized means of support for all of them. You get: more door openers, more cross-sell options, and more client solutions.

Working with a single carrier means fewer products and fewer options. And dealing with multiple compa-nies on your own is always a real hassle.

3. Flexible App Submission

We give you the freedom to submit apps via mail, fax, or the Internet. The Internet option allows you to sell over the phone.

Most other companies can only accept apps via fax or mail, limiting the ways that you can conduct business.

4. Products We offer a wide array of products, including both tradi-tional major medical, simplified issue medical, impaired risk, and guaranteed issue and we design special pro-prietary products available only through AHCP.

Are you loaded down with “me too” products? Do you have enough plans to serve as many clients as you can?

5. Pricing We partner with our carriers to ensure that you have the most competitive rates possible.

Who’s looking out for you at these companies?

6. Commissions We pay out competitive commissions, up to 8 month advances (paid twice weekly), and we pay you fast – as fast as every 24 hours via EFT.

Other companies can keep you waiting for up to two weeks before you get your check!

7. Free Leads Our Free Lead program is based on providing you qual-ity leads – so you don’t have to waste time prospecting or cold calling.

Are you told to “go sell” but don’t know who to sell to?

8. Training We provide free product and sales training, taught by our carrier partners.

Will they teach you the sales techniques you need to really make money in this business? Will you receive your training from a pro, or just a company rep?

9. Incentives We provide outstanding year-end bonuses for top production, and many on-going perks and benefits for our agents.

What else are you getting besides just commissions?

10. Agent Support We have a dedicated call center and management staff of friendly, trained professionals to respond to your needs.

Are they servicing more than just agents? Do they have a management staff that you can actually talk to?

11. Trips We treat our best producers to trips to fun destinations such as Mexico and the Caribbean.

When was the last time you were treated to a vacation – at someone else’s expense?

12. Electronic Platform

Our web-based platform provides you - quick submis-sion, quick issue, and online sales support.

Do other companies provide you the ease and conve-nience of an electronic platform for your sales?

13. Webinar Sales Training

We provide weekly web training seminars on our products, hosted by AHCP and our insurance partners, to maximize your knowledge and efficiency

Will other companies teach you the product informa-tion and application submission tips you need to make your business more efficient?

14. Telesales We provide the tools and submission process that you need to sell telephonically - easily! Contact your lead, submit your application, and follow up - all through the ease and convenience of the telephone.

Do other companies provide the tools you need to sell to as many leads as possible, in a fast, efficient, and cost-effective method?

Sell The Way You WantHow AHCP Gives You Selling Flexibility

At AHCP, we understand that each agent has his or her own style. That’s why we offer both Paper and Webtronic app submission, each of which supports a different style and method of selling. Some agents prefer to exclusively focus on one method or the other, and some like to use both methods. Paper submission favors the traditional “face-to-face” sales process; you visit your clients directly, complete a paper app and the client provides you with a “wet signature”. You then mail or fax in the completed app.Webtronic submission is done via our website, www.ameri-choice.com. It is particularly useful for phone sales, because you can call the client and walk them through the application on-line. After the application is complete, the client approves it with an electronic signature and it is immediately sent to the insurance company for review.Below are a few of the advantages of each method:

Choose the method that works for you (or use both!)

Paper App Submission Webtronic App SubmissionGenerate valuable additional leads by knocking on doors and personally visiting small businesses.

Take advantage of free AHCP leads to call or e-mail prospects in your resident and non-resident states.

Impress your clients with colorful, attractive brochures available through AHCP.

Serve busy clients by quickly taking their application over the phone and submitting it via the Internet.

Sell to clients that do not have a PC or Internet connection.

Save money on gas, food, and dry-cleaning bills by working from home or office.

Take advantage of local advertising and referrals to promote your business.

Double your sales calls by eliminating downtime and traveling time between clients.

Ideal For: Salespeople who enjoy meeting with clients and delivering a face-to-face presentation.

Ideal For: Assertive, web-savvy salespeople who enjoy selling over the phone.

How Does the Webtronic Sales Process Work?For those of you interested in selling by phone, here’s a quick overview of how our Webtronic sales process works.To be a Webtronic Sales Agent, you’ll need a phone, a PC, and an Internet connection. To get started, a Webtronic Sales Agent usually relies on leads, which are available through AHCP at no cost through our Lead Credit Program.As a Webtronic Sales Agent, you will typically communicate with your leads via e-mail and follow-up phone calls. Once you have set an appointment time to call your client for the full presentation, arrange to have them waiting by their phone with the AHCP website open on their PC.Using the AHCP website as your sales tool (www.ameri-choice.com) you can instantly direct the client to any information they need, create real-time quotes, and type in and submit their application immediately. It’s fast, it’s easy, and it’s enjoyable! Best of all, it doesn’t matter where your client lives – so you can respond to leads from anywhere you have a non-resident license.For those agents who prefer this type of selling, our Webtronic process provides the advantages of reduced overhead and increased productivity.

Not Sure Whether to Go Paper or Webtronic? Do Both!There’s no reason you can’t use both approaches to meet your goals. In cases where your client is out of town, or a personal visit cannot be arranged, you can use the Webtronic option. If your client is close enough for you to visit personally, you can grab a paper app and some brochures and drive down to see them. With AHCP, either option is available to you at any time!

Real Wealth BuildingWhy AHCP is #1 in Agent Compensation

We’re successful when our agents are successful – which is why AHCP has built a compensation and incentive platform that’s unparalleled in the industry. From our generous commissions and advances to our bonuses, reward programs, and vacation getaways, we know how to treat agents right! Here’s a summary of our current programs:

Advanced CommissionsAs a new sales representative, our Advance Commission program can give you the jump start you need to launch your career. You can receive up to an 8 month commission advance on issue for each Major Medical insurance sale. That gives you a solid earnings base as you begin your AHCP career.

Earned Commission Account You also receive a monthly check for Earned Commissions on renewal business beyond your advance, non-advanced sales, such as employee list bill sales, and other consumer programs offered to you by AHCP.

Monthly Association Sales CommissionsEach month you receive commission for association membership sales you’ve made. This is a great extra boost to your income every three months!

Fast PayoutsWe pay commissions fast – as fast as every week by check, or twice a week by EFT. That means you have money to spend when you need it!

“Cycle of Success” Lead Credit ProgramAHCP offers Vendor, Exclusive, and Telemarketed Leads, available by State or County, and at a great price – FREE when you use our Lead Credit Program! Here’s how it works:• First you submit a few apps. In fact, all you need is

1 or 2 to get things moving. • For each eligible major medical app that is issued, we

credit you with $35 to spend on AHCP leads. That’s real purchasing power in your pocket.

• You buy new leads and what happens? You get more sales. With more sales you get more lead credits – which allows you to buy even more leads – and the cycle keeps going!

The net result: your production doubles and so does your advance and earned income!

Reward programsAHCP offers its agents an exciting program to reward exceptional performance. Our “More Rewards” brochure details our New Agent program and our ongoing agent incentives.

Sales Conventions/TripsEach year we treat our best producers to a sales convention to exciting destinations like Mexico, Orlando, Las Vegas, the Bahamas, or the Caribbean! Qualifying agents win round-trip airfare for themselves and a guest. We also hold our annual AHCP Awards Banquet at these trips, where we hand out recognition awards!

AHCP has put together an unbelievable system and an awesome product line to go with it. The online quote and application submission system

together with web conferencing and all the other tools and support they provide is unlike anything I have ever seen in the past 10 years of my sales experience.”“I could go on and on about the programs and systems of AHCP, but it is the people that I look forward to working with in the future. I look forward to a long and successful career with AHCP. I am excited about the future of the agency and the direction in which it is moving!”

Profiles of SuccessReal Agents Talk About AHCP

These are just a few of the many letters we receive from AHCP agents all over the country:

The bottom-line for me is value. Value secures clients for years to come. AHCP has a great value offer. I have closed more deals in the past two

months than in my last six months with my previous company. I have also not driven one mile, have not been stood-up for an appointment and have clients I know who will be on the books for years to come.”

- J. C., Pittsburgh, PA

I tend to be a product freak and study my competitors closely. What we offer our clients through AHCP pales that of other companies. As I have done for all

these years, I take the health care insurance package of others very seriously!!! I am very proud of the products we offer and I am sure that is apparent even over the phone.”

- T. r., Springfield, oH

The decision to join AHCP was rather easy. They have put together an impressive opportunity that provides good value to my clients and

handsome rewards for my wife and me.”“I have enjoyed not having to drive 3,000 miles a month for face-to-face sales and have faith in the companies and products that we offer to our clients.”“It’s nice to be home at night and enjoy the flexibility this opportunity offers me and my family!”- T. D., Thiensville, WI

I was ready to give up on the insurance industry because I did not feel there was a product that I wanted to offer to myself or my clients. I always felt

that if I found a product that I believed in myself, then I could sell it.” “In December of 2004, I was introduced to AHCP and their line of products. I was excited to learn more about the company. I made the move to AHCP and my sales have been great. And I feel good when I leave the client because I know they have a great plan and will be taken care of. I owe thanks to my manager for introducing me to AHCP and to their staff for their support, but most of all to AHCP for a great product.”

- J. B., Parkersburg, WV

What I like best about AHCP is the helpful staff, the comprehensive and competitive products, and the ease of moving into management. It

would have taken me a few years to get into an override position at my previous company. AHCP has made that income level easy to attain. I am really excited about my future with AHCP!”

- K. K., rock Hill, SC
