T H MARCH AT SPRING FAIR 2008
T H March, Insurance Brokers to the jewellery trade for over 115 years, will demonstrate how their business has evolved by presenting its recently launched March Insurance Solutions transactional website at this year’s Spring Fair.
Believed to be the first of its kind, the new website includes an option which allows members of the public to make online insurance applications to insure their personal jewellery and receive immediate cover.
Neil McFarlane, Sales Director of T H March describes the thinking behind the transactional website. “We are working in partnership with our retail jewellery clients so they can offer the very best service to their customers. People are much happier buying online than they were.”
The service will be available 24 hours a day, every day of the year, making it easier for people to buy insurance for their jewellery valuables.
March Insurance Solutions
The advantage of the transactional website is that it allows T H March to take the customer through the benefits of different types of insurance to establish what they are seeking. Customers can be referred to the website and once there, they will be able to choose whether to arrange immediate cover through the transactional page under the March Plus Scheme – one of the options under March Solutions – or discuss other alternatives directly with T H March.
March Plus is a specially negotiated jewellery insurance, aimed at higher valued items exceeding the March Guard Scheme limits. March Plus and March Guard both provide cover against the physical loss or damage to insured items of jewellery without any excess applying.
As with all T H March products, the focus is on providing retailers and their customers with:
• a first class service including easy access to decision makers
• referral or repair / replacement business wherever possible
• a fast and fair claims service
• the provision of easy-to-use manuals and interesting product literature
• a dedicated teams of professional staff who understand the jewellery trade
