Principal Opens Door for More Small Business Owners

New underwriting program designed to help small business owners obtained cost effective DI coverage. 

 

 

Increase your opportunities with small business owners using Principal’s new 3-3-3 program. It allows you to provide small business owners a pre-approved 3A occupation class offer when they meet these simple eligibility guidelines1:

  • 3+ years as owner of their business
  • 3+ employees (in addition to themselves) or sub-contract manual labor
  •  $30,000+ net income in each of the previous two years

 

How it works
1 | Identify prospects that meet the eligibility guidelines.

2 | Request a pre-approved Disability Income quote by sending an email to info@truluma.com or calling 206.633.2922

3 | Receive a quote at a 3A occupation class rate – guaranteed.   Some offers may have limited benefits, so we’ll also offer an alternate class at standard benefits. For example, an owner of a plumbing company who does much of the labor might receive two options, such as:

  • Offer at a 3A occupation with a $2,500 benefit and 5-year benefit duration;

or

  • Traditional maximum benefit quote at  a 2A occupation rate
