IFA Insurance Company Announces the Release of IFA Agency IQ a New Program that Provides Consumers with the Capability to Quote and Buy New Jersey Auto Insurance Directly from an Independent Agency Web Site. .

CLARK, NJ - 9/1/2007 - IFA Insurance Company, a leading New Jersey Auto Insurance carrier, has initiated their new IFA Agency Instant Quote Program. IFA Agency IQ provides local independent Insurance Agents the ability to offer consumers an efficient method to quote and buy New Jersey Auto Insurance directly from their Agency web site.

With the recent influx of Direct Auto Insurance companies in New Jersey, many local independent Insurance Agents have seen their market share erode as consumers have become more inclined to purchase auto insurance online. These direct companies came to New Jersey armed with the web technology making it easy for consumers to jump on board. IFA Insurance Company has been a leader in utilizing new technologies in order to streamline the process of quoting, purchasing and managing New Jersey Auto Insurance policies for their agents. The IFA Agency IQ program was designed to help independent Agents compete with the direct carries by providing their agents with the newest web technology.

David Walsh, President of IFA Insurance Company, believes that helping independent Agents stay on the cutting edge of technology helps the consumer, the Agent, and his own company. “IFA is committed to provide our Agents with innovative technological tools that keep them on a level playing field with direct companies. With comparable technology, competitive rates, and personalized service from an agent (something the direct writers can’t deliver); we think the independent Agent offers a huge upside to the consumer.”

IFA Agency IQ is easily set up by placing a link on the Agency website which directs consumer to the IFA Instant Quote website. At this site the consumer can compare New Jersey Auto Insurance rates and purchase a New Jersey Auto Insurance policy with IFA online with a credit card. IFA Agency IQ also allows the independent Agent to track all quoting and purchase activity that has been generated through their Agency website. They also have ability to manage their entire book of business on-line, to quote and bind a policy, to receive real-time customer updates, and interact with IFA representatives.
