Have you ever done anything besides self promotion?
Very rarely will a newsletter get you business, a newsletter will keep your business. Clients want to see your name, and lets them know you havent forgotten about them, A newsletter is about maintaining the business. Any new business is just a bonus!
Good questions. A majority of my responses are replies to various insurance agency issues and have nothing to do with business development. I truly enjoy resonding to Agency issues where I have over 20 years experience. However one thing I will never do is promote my business while I tell others that they should not promote their business. We live in a great country we celebrate free markets and welcome the promotiong of commerce, certainly not look down on those who do it. I hope you are out there promoting your business and doing so successfuly, it's what makes America great!

Well stated, a newletter helps with retention and gets the conversation started things like E&O Insurance as well as rounding out accounts. It works very well within your own client base, not so much prospects unless they are warm prospects.
