What Christine does

I help partner small businesses with Aflac so that they can enhance their employee benefits without adding any additional cost.

I can also help individuals and the self-employed outside of the businesses I work with gain the same benefits.

Why do over 42 million people have Aflac? Your medical insurance pays hospitals & doctors... your Aflac benefits pay cash directly to YOU! Aflac helps protect you and your family from the financial impact of an illness or injury. Leftover medical bills and decreased income can devastate a family. Aflac provides cash when you need it most and you decide how to spend the benefits, it's your money!

Even the best major medical program will not send you a check when you are sick or injured, that is what Aflac does!

What Christine does best

In my own business, I am great at catering the Aflac programs to fit the individual needs of each person I work with. No need to be confused, just ask!

I have also become quite the networking connector. I am great at introducing people at events and online through Biznik. I am always thinking about how I can help whoever I am with, or those I have met previously.

What does Christine need?

I am new to the area from Georgia, so I need to be put introduced to small business owners that have employees so that I can explain Aflac, how it can help their business, and most importantly how it benefits their employees with no cost to the company itself. Our "groups" are 3 or more people.

My biggest challenge is scheduling the 15 minute overview of what I've got with the small business owners. When they don't know me yet, they think I am trying to sell them something, and therefore they make it hard for me to help them realize that I am only trying to help, and that this really doesn't cost them anything - not to mention that I do all the implementation and admin! I also come to them - they don't have to meet me anywhere unless they want to. So that's why it helps to be introduced to business owners rather than having to "cold call" them.

Education

Finance and Accounting, Certified Life and Health Insurance Specialist

Experience

I worked at the corporate headquarters of Aflac back in Columbus, Georgia with Large Account Services. I saw Aflac help many people, so I wanted to directly become a part of the action as a representative. This is why I became an agent upon my arrival to Seattle in late '07.

Before then, I had worked various customer service jobs throughout college ranging from bartending to bank teller. I love working with people, and wouldn't trade it for anything!
