It’s All A Matter Of Trust

By Staff Reports InsuranceNewsNet

CHICAGO - Markets run on trust and there's a bit of a trust deficit in financial services.

That was the word from Stephen M.R. Covey, who spoke on the topic of trust and its importance in attracting and keeping clients. Covey was one of the master motivators who spoke at the InsuranceNewsNet 2018 Superconference.

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">⁦<a href="https://twitter.com/StephenMRCovey?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@StephenMRCovey</a>⁩ — Markets run on trust. <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/innsuperconference?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#innsuperconference</a> <a href="https://t.co/zXsozfqdCU">pic.twitter.com/zXsozfqdCU</a></p>&mdash; InsuranceNewsNet (@InsNewsNet) <a href="https://twitter.com/InsNewsNet/status/1045060534515773440?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">September 26, 2018</a></blockquote>

⁦@patrickbetdavid⁩ explains that internet companies will actually make it impossible to sell life insurance online. They will jack up lead costs. #innsuperconference pic.twitter.com/n4za4IMZfL
