In-market means something different for a P&C producer, a benefits broker, and a specialty lines broker. Pick yours.

Commercial property and casualty

Businesses whose risk is changing: new locations, new equipment, more vehicles, more people, or a new line of business. Reach them while coverage is being rethought.

Coverage is decided long before the renewal date.

By the time a renewal is on the calendar, the incumbent has the first look. The opening comes earlier, when something changes at the business.

What in-market means in your market.

Not a list of every business with a policy. The few to reach out to now, the ones for an awareness campaign, and the ones to keep warm.

in-marketadjective

Said of a company that is most likely in the market for your services, because of what is actually happening there: the moves it is making, and what its key decision-makers are doing and saying. A myriad of data points, weighed together by algorithms tuned to your industry. So the timing to reach out is real.

Not the same as intent data

Who browsed?

Intent data infers interest from online behavior: page visits, content downloads, search topics. It shows that someone was curious, often one anonymous visitor, and it reads the same way in every industry.

In-market

What is actually happening?

In-market looks at the company itself: the moves it is making, and what its key decision-makers are doing and saying. It is weighed for your industry, because what signals an office move is not what signals a hiring push.

Why “most likely”? No one can read a buyer’s mind. What Sam can do is show you why, so you can judge every call for yourself.

Questions producers ask.

“Is in-market the same as intent data?”
No. Intent data infers interest from online behavior, like page visits, downloads, and searches. It shows that someone was curious, not that a company is getting ready to buy. In-market looks at what is actually happening: the moves a company is making, and what its key decision-makers are doing and saying. Sam weighs a myriad of these data points with algorithms tuned to your industry, then shows you why each company is most likely in-market, so you can judge for yourself.
“Who is Sam built for in insurance?”
Commercial property and casualty producers, employee benefits brokers and consultants, and specialty lines brokers. Employee benefits also has its own page.
“Does Sam know when a policy renews?”
No. Sam does not hold policy or renewal data. It shows you which businesses are in-market because of what is happening at the company, so you can start the conversation before the renewal is decided.
“What counts as a market?”
A market is one service in one city, for example tenant representation in Manhattan. Four services in one city is four markets, and so is one service in four cities. In-Market includes one market, and you can add more anytime.
“What will I see in the free trial?”
How many companies are in-market for what you sell right now, and in which industries. Pick a package and Sam shows you who they are and the decision-makers to reach.
“Can my whole agency use it?”
Yes. In-Market includes two users, and you can add more for $25 a user per month. Regional and national brands get Enterprise, with nodes for each office, roll-up reporting, SSO, and invoiced billing.
