"The producer management lifecycle is characterized by multiple activities and numerous handoffs," says Mike Fitzgerald, senior analyst with Celent's Insurance group and author of the report. "Distribution solutions that increase coordination and consistency improve agent service, decrease expenses, and attract business."
