You took a flying leap. A leap forward, that is. Thanks to all of you who used Leap Day 2012 to learn how to save a day of time—or more—in your insurance workflows.For a recap of Real Time Day 2012, click here.

As you undoubtedly now know, people who use Real Time and Download save, on average, an hour a day by eliminating multiple data entry, password management tasks and other redundant work. All you need is two people in the agency using Real Time and Download, and you’ve saved a day’s worth of work EACH AND EVERY WEEK!

The tools offered through the insurance industry’s Real Time/Download Campaign save time, create efficiencies, speed up transactions, reduce errors and streamline connectivity between insurance agents and brokers and their business partners.

National Real Time Day provided carriers, agents/brokers and user groups with a special time to ask questions and get them answered, share insights and challenges – and explore how Real Time and Download can boost profitability.

We’re working on ways to keep the positive momentum going—without making you wait four more years! In the meantime, be sure to check out the Real Time Implementation Guide for an explanation of what Real Time is and how it can help your agency or brokerage. Look at the specific implementation steps that can help your agency leap ahead in the quest for efficiency.
