\n \t\t\tCommon Questions<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t

The Optimization Program \u2014 Questions Clients Ask First.<\/h2>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n \t\t\t

How is this different from my existing insurance agent's review?<\/h4>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Most agents review only the policies they sold you \u2014 and have a commission interest in moving you to new policies. VFC reviews every policy you own, across every agent and every carrier, with no incentive to move coverage unless the client genuinely benefits.<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n

\n \t\t\t

What does the Optimization Program cost?<\/h4>\n\t\t\t\t\t

The audit and report are included in the broader VFC Financial Master Review at no additional charge. Implementation of any new coverage is compensated through standard insurance commission structures \u2014 never a separate fee to the client.<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n

\n \t\t\t

Do you replace my existing agents?<\/h4>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Not necessarily. Where existing agent relationships are working well and the coverage is competitive, we preserve them. Where coverage needs to change, we either work with your existing agent or sourcing through VFC's carrier network \u2014 whichever serves the client best.<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n

\n \t\t\t

How much do clients typically save?<\/h4>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Premium savings of 20-30% across the total stack is common, with most of the savings coming from rationalizing redundant coverage rather than reducing protection. Many clients end up with more coverage at lower total cost.<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n

\n \t\t\t

How often should the optimization be repeated?<\/h4>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Annually for review meetings; comprehensive re-audit every 3-5 years or after major life events (sale of business, marriage, divorce, significant net worth change). The Master Custom Guide tracks the renewal schedule for you.<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n
