Fourteen day refund, no questions, including that you read it and decided it was not for you. General information, not legal advice and not compliance advice. Insurance advertising is regulated and the rules differ by state, and your carrier agreements add more on top. Check anything here with your own counsel, your state department of insurance, and your carrier's compliance team before you act on it. ## The short answer, if you are just trying to work out whether this is worth your time. AI is useful to an insurance agency in a narrower way than the marketing around it suggests. It is genuinely good at the work where it is reorganizing information you already have: drafting the fifty fields of a Google Business Profile you claimed once and abandoned, replying to every review without it eating your morning, turning the question you get asked forty times a year into a page that answers it, and producing the structured data your web person will otherwise never get to. It is bad, and in this trade genuinely risky, at anything that looks like advice. It does not know your client, it has not seen their policy, it does not know what state they are in, and it will produce a confident sentence about what is covered because it has read an enormous amount of carrier advertising and that is what carrier advertising sounds like. Carriers have compliance departments. You have a Tuesday afternoon. So the rule that governs everything on this page: **the machine drafts, and a licensed human decides, edits, and publishes.** Nothing describing coverage leaves your agency without a licensed person having read that specific sentence. ## Where it actually helps, in the order worth doing them. - **Finishing the Google Business Profile.** The one surface where an independent agency beats a national carrier outright, and most agency profiles were claimed once and left. Every category for every line you write, services entered properly, the questions section seeded, real photos. An assistant drafts all of it at once, which turns a two year postponement into an afternoon. - **Keeping the review flow alive.** Reviews move local ranking and they are what a shopper actually reads when deciding who to trust with their coverage. The hard part was never knowing to ask. It was asking every time and replying to every one. - **Turning coverage questions into pages.** What something costs, what a coverage generally does, whether bundling is worth it. This is what people research long before they request a quote, and it is where a real agent beats a quote engine. It is also the content with the most risk in it, which is why the kit spends so long on how to write it. - **Line of business and location pages.** One real page per line you write and per territory you serve, instead of one thin products page that ranks for nothing. - **Cleaning up your listings, including the carrier agent locators.** Those locator records are both a citation source and a live referral channel, and nobody at your agency owns them. - **Checking whether the AI engines name you.** Ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google what a shopper would ask, and read who gets recommended instead of you. Free, twenty minutes, quarterly. - **The schema layer.** Fiddly, structured, and exactly what an assistant is good at. ## Where it does not help, whatever anyone selling it says. It will not write you past a national carrier on a broad term. Nothing will. Publishing thirty generic articles about car insurance is a way to spend a month and move nothing. It does not know your market. It has never driven your county, does not know which street floods, and cannot name your appointed carriers unless you tell it. The local and specific material, which is your entire competitive advantage, has to come from you. It does not log into anything. It will not edit your Google listing, fix a directory record, or publish a page. All of this is copy and paste on purpose, because anything more connected raises client data questions that belong in front of your counsel first. And it does not replace the conversation. The whole reason an independent agent beats a comparison site is that there is a person who will advise. Automating your way into sounding like a quote engine is the one genuinely self defeating move available here. ## The three you never cross. **Client information never goes into a general purpose assistant.** No name, address, policy number, claim number, or loss description. Not "with the name removed" if the rest identifies them. Whether a given product retains or trains on your inputs depends on the product, the plan, and a setting that changes, and a setting is not a control you can demonstrate to anyone who asks. The marketing use case never needs it anyway. If a prompt seems to need a real person's details, the prompt is wrong. **Nothing that reads as a coverage recommendation.** The machine describes the factors. Only a licensed human states a conclusion. The tells in a draft are always the same: you should, you need, make sure you have, this is covered, your policy will pay, most people need. That also rules out putting a chatbot on your site that answers "am I covered for this," because it will be asked, and an answer is coverage advice given under your agency's name, at scale, unsupervised. **Nothing touching a live claim.** No drafted status update, no explanation of what the adjuster meant, no reassurance about payment. And when a bad review mentions a denied claim, the instinct to explain in public means confirming the person is a client and disputing their account of a loss on a page anyone can read forever. The kit has a specific reply pattern for that, and it says almost nothing on purpose. ## What is inside. // 00 ### What a marketing agent is Plain language on a thing most agents have not heard of. A marketing agent is a document: a written process you hand to an assistant so it does the job the same way every time, instead of you retyping a request and getting a different answer each Thursday. Why that matters more than any individual prompt, and what it has to do with the fact that your process currently lives in one person's head. // 01 ### Where AI helps an agency, and where it does not The long version of this page, plus the economics underneath it. Why the renewal and the bundled household set the bar, why volume is the wrong target in this trade, what you are actually competing against, and the carrier agent locator listings nobody owns. // 02 ### Twelve workflows, with the prompts Google Business Profile gap list, question and answer seeding, review requests for four different moments, review replies including the ones that mention a claim, line of business pages, location pages done through an interview so they are not templates, coverage question content, the listings and carrier locator audit, the AI visibility check, schema, renewal notes and newsletters, and the competitor gap check. Each one with what to check before it leaves the agency. // 03 ### What to never automate Five lines, with the failure mode spelled out for each. Client information, coverage recommendations, live claims, promises about savings and coverage, and the rule that nothing publishes itself. This is the section that earns the price, because in a regulated trade the downside is not symmetrical with the upside. // 04 ### Advertising compliance Written from principle, with no citation to any rule, because those differ by state and change and a marketing kit has no business telling you what your state says. Who has a say over your marketing, the information versus advice line that decides most hard calls, ten questions to send your state department of insurance, seven to send each carrier, and what to check on every surface. // 05 ### The 30 day rollout Four weeks, one thing at a time. Week one is the safety rule, the agency profile, and the compliance questions, which go out first because the answers take weeks to come back. Week four ends with four written questions, one of which is whether you published anything this month you would not be comfortable defending. // the agent ### The instruction files The agent itself, with the prohibitions written into it so they sit in front of the assistant on every run rather than in somebody's memory. Plus the agency profile you fill in once with your real name, lines, territories, carriers, licensed people, and voice, so the output sounds like your agency instead of like an insurance company. Two ways to load it, one that takes setup and one that takes none. ## It is not just prompts. A folder of prompts is worth about what people charge for a folder of prompts. Three things in here are not that. **A script that actually runs.** Point the checker at a folder of your website copy, and get back every flagged phrase with a line number and a replacement: coverage recommendations phrased as advice, savings claims with no source, "full coverage," guarantees. It is Python 3 with no dependencies and no network calls, so nothing leaves your machine. Most agencies that run it across their back catalogue find things, not because they were careless but because the vocabulary was normal when they learned it. **The rules as data, not prose.** The phrase list is a file. The script reads it, the assistant reads it, and you can edit it. When a carrier hands you a prohibited terms list, you paste it in and both start enforcing it. **A straight answer on tooling.** Which connectors to set up, in what order, and what each one lets the assistant do. Where the official servers are and where there is no official server at all. What the paid tools cost and, more usefully, when you should not buy them. We use the expensive ones because we run a lot of sites. That is our reason and it is probably not yours. ## Who it is for. - Owners of independent agencies doing their own marketing - Producers who are also the marketing department - Agency staff who inherited the website and the Google listing and have never been told what they are allowed to say - Captive agents, with one caveat: your carrier sets rules on tools and messaging, and those rules come first If you have heard for two years that AI is going to change this business and you still have no idea what that means on a Tuesday, it is for you. ## What it will not do. It will not tell you what your state allows, because that is your department of insurance and your attorney, and this kit deliberately cites no rule at all rather than getting one wrong. It will not recommend software or quote you a price for anything, because those change and a file written this month should not be making claims about them next month. It will not write the local detail that makes a location page worth publishing, because it has never been to your town and the agent is instructed not to invent one. It is not a compliance certification, it is not a legal opinion, and it is not insurance advice. It is marketing work, from people who do marketing, with a clear line drawn around the part that is not ours. ## How it is delivered. Plain Markdown files in one folder. They open in any text editor and paste cleanly into a document, a shared drive, or straight into the assistant. No login, no app, no course platform. You get the download immediately after checkout. Fourteen day refund, no questions, including that you read it and decided it was not for you. Tools and model behavior move. When something material changes, buyers get the updated copy and a short note on what changed. There is no subscription. ## Related reading. - [Insurance agent SEO](/playbooks/insurance-agent-seo/).

Google Business Profile content, review requests and replies, line of business pages, location pages, coverage question content and newsletters. The constraint is that insurance advertising is regulated and a general purpose assistant does not know it, so it will write coverage recommendations, savings claims and the phrase "full coverage" unless something stops it. The useful setup is a written instruction file holding those prohibitions rather than remembering them yourself each time. ### What can an insurance agency not say in its marketing? Anything that reads as a coverage recommendation, such as you should, you need, make sure you have, or most people need. Anything stating what a policy covers or pays, because that depends on the policy and the facts. Savings figures and statistics you cannot substantiate. Guarantees and superlatives like lowest rates. Anything about a live claim. And "full coverage," which is not a real coverage and which consumers hear as a promise that everything is paid. Your state department of insurance and your carriers add more on top. ### Why is "full coverage" a problem? Because it is not a coverage. There is no product by that name, so it has no defined meaning, and a consumer hearing it reasonably concludes that everything is paid. When something is not paid, the gap between what they understood and what the policy said is the problem, and the phrase is what created it. Name the actual coverages by their real names instead. ### Does this kit tell me my state's insurance advertising rules? No, deliberately. Those differ by state, your carrier agreements add more, and they change. A marketing kit written by a marketing agency has no business telling an agent what their state requires. What it gives you instead is the structure of who governs your advertising, the information versus advice line that resolves most hard calls, ten questions to send your state department of insurance and seven to send each carrier, and a profile file to hold the answers as they come back. ### What is a Claude Skill? A folder containing an instruction file and any reference documents or scripts it needs. The assistant loads it on its own when a task matches the description, so the same job gets done the same way every time without you re-explaining. That matters more in a regulated trade than a general one, because the prohibitions hold on the day you are busy rather than depending on you remembering them. ### What do I need to run this? An AI assistant you already pay for, or a free tier. The kit is plain markdown and works with Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini or Copilot. The included checker script needs Python 3, which is already on every Mac and most Linux machines. ## Related reading, free. This kit is built on guides already published here, which cost nothing.

Runs on a file, a folder, or a whole folder of website copy. Python 3, no dependencies, no network, nothing leaves your machine. Point it at everything you have ever published, in one command. // data ### The phrase list, as a file you can edit Every flagged phrase with why it is a problem and what to write instead, split into "do not publish" and "look at this." Add your carriers' and your state's own prohibited terms and the checker picks them up. // tools ### What to connect and what to pay for Two free connectors that change what the assistant can do more than anything else. Google's official read-only Analytics server. The fact that no official Search Console server exists, whatever the blog posts say. And honest pricing on the paid tools, including which ones a single agency should not buy. // setup ### Setup, and the three tests Install for Claude, ChatGPT and the rest, plus the three tests that prove it actually loaded. A skill that did not load looks identical to one that did, right up until it writes the thing it was supposed to refuse.
