Long Term Care Insurance Association Opens 2012 Sales Achievement Awards

The Long Term Care Insurance Sales Achievement Awards is now open for entries effective  January 1, 2012. 

The yearly award based on 2011 sales is organized by the American Association for Long-Term Care Insurance (AALTCI), the national trade organization.  The 2011 award ranked producers from all states broken down into categories including individual LTC insurance, multilife long term care as well as sales of asset-based annuity and life insurance products offering long term care benefits.

The awards are designed to recognize and celebrate outstanding achievements by long term care insurance producers working to educate and help protect Americans.  “From those producers just starting out to the many seasoned specialists, there’s no more passionate and hard-working group of professionals than those selling long-term care insurance protection,” explains Jesse Slome, AALTCI’s executive director.

A special “Rookie of the Year” category now recognizes those producers who first started selling in 2011.   A key component of the awards program is the State-by-State ranking.  “This gives 50 agents the opportunity to show that they are number 1 in their particular state,” Slome explains.  “That’s certainly a powerful marketing tool and these leaders are often called on to teach others and share their knowledge.”

Online applications are available at www.aaltci.org/awards.  The closing date for free entries is February 29.

Established in 1998, the American Association for Long-Term Care Insurance is the national trade organization that supports insurance professionals as well as conducts awareness programs to educate American adults about the importance of long-term care planning.
