From June 2008 through January 2009, over 40,000 new business Auto or Home Apps have been submitting to carriers through WinRater/SinglePoint.

Last week, SinglePoint had its best week ever with just about 2,000 Apps submitted.

There are plenty of improvements that can be made and more carriers to get on board, but SinglePoint is a solid success. These numbers prove it out.

If your agency is not using SinglePoint please contact Tonya or Heather immediately. You really are missing out on a significant way to improve your overall efficiency.

Buckle up, we’re heading down a whole new road!

Plymouth Rock is the first carrier to plug into WinRater/SinglePoint’s Real Time Rating system.

This means the quote that is displayed in the WinRater premium list will actually be calculated on Plymouth Rock’s web rating engine.

SinglePoint is like a lovable golden retriever doing the leg work while you focus on other more important things (like your insured!). SinglePoint feeds the quote data to the Plymouth Rock rating engine for calculation and then retrieves it for use in your WinRater.

With the exception of having to click a “quote” button and waiting a few seconds, you won’t notice a big change in your workflow. But you will enjoy more accurate Plymouth Rock rates, in which all third party reports such as Registry and eligibility reports have been run.

Next week, we’ll begin sending Plymouth Rock agents a SoftSync email to activate this functionality. Be sure to contact us with questions or concerns. And look for more info about this exciting change from us and Plymouth Rock in the coming days!

We’ve begun sending out the update to WinRater 6.0. Once you have successfully upgraded, check out one of the exciting new 6.0 features. Agents that license the Registry’s Virtual Private Network can now instantly retrieve RMV data and have it pre-filled in the appropriate fields in WinRater at the start of the quote.

* Requires the RMV’s Virtual Private Network.
