Don’t Be Boring: How Personality and Passion Can Transform Your Insurance Marketing

When it comes to building a thriving insurance business, standing out from the crowd is key. In the latest episode of the Insurance Business Babes podcast, hosts Joanna Wyckoff and Kathe Kline share invaluable insights into why infusing your marketing with your unique personality and passions isn’t just more fun—it’s also a winning strategy.

Let Your Passions Shine Through

Kathe shares the story of an agent whose love for sports became the heartbeat of his marketing. Instead of a boring, generic ad, he brought a local college athlete into the mix, letting his authentic enthusiasm pull in clients with similar interests. The message: skip the cookie-cutter pitches—clients connect with people, not sales slogans.

Personal Touches That Stick

Joanna and Kathe dive into creative ways to make your business memorable. Joanna, who’s both an artist and athlete, sends out custom birthday cards featuring her own artwork, tying in her synchronized swimming passion by using a mermaid design. These personal cards aren’t just eye-catching—they spark real conversations and connections with clients, who frequently notice and comment on these unique touches.

Similarly, Kathe discusses leveraging family talents and interests—whether gifting potted plants grown by her sister or sending homemade jams from a baking enthusiast agent. These thoughtful gifts and gestures go far beyond the standard client relationship, making clients feel truly appreciated.

Making Meaningful Connections

The heart of Joanna and Kathe’s advice? Attract the right clients by being authentically you. Share your hobbies on social media. Host events that reflect your interests, from ice cream socials to movie nights or cooking classes. Not only do these strategies make your days more enjoyable, but they also foster loyalty, referrals, and conversations that go deeper than just insurance plans.

Final Words: Don’t Be Boring

The ultimate takeaway: your personality is your superpower. In a field where everyone may offer the same products, your authentic connections and creative approaches are what will keep clients coming back—and telling their friends. So, when it comes to your insurance business, remember the golden rule from Joanna and Kathe: don’t be boring!
