ERIE, Pa., Jan. 30, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- February is the
time of year when store shelves are full of chocolate and candy
hearts for Valentine's Day. February is also "Insure Your Love
Month." A way to remind you that getting life insurance today can
ensure your loved ones are financially protected in the future.
Erie Insurance offers four tips to get the conversation
started.
1. Take a positive approach. One of your first
objectives is to get everyone talking positively. Happiness,
ambition and hope are great subjects to frame family continuity.
One of the easiest ways to do that is to talk about life goals:
- What kinds of careers or important pursuits do your loved ones
envision?
- What educational, professional or personal achievements matter
most?
- What positive steps can be taken to anticipate and overcome
likely obstacles?
By starting the conversation off on a positive
note, you establish a "can-do" spirit that keeps everyone focused
on life over the horizon.
2. Discuss the benefits of your insurance
coverage. Benefits like mortgage protection, student loan
protection and funeral cost coverage safeguard your family's
dreams. By associating benefits with common goals, it becomes
easier to focus on the practical, nuts-and-bolts aspects of your
coverage than on the dispiriting reason it's needed in the first
place.
3. Share the practical aspects before they are needed.
There are some things that everyone should know, like where your
life insurance documents are stored, how the claims process works
and your policy number and insurance agent information. This
information is crucial when it comes time to file a claim.
4. Know Your Options. Exploring and understanding
your life insurance options is an important part of establishing
the kind of security your family needs. Make sure you've discussed
your coverage options with your agent as you plan the protection
you'll be discussing with your family.
You're not just insuring your life; you're insuring your
family's future and peace of mind. Understanding and communication
are key components to a fruitful family discussion of life
insurance.
