3 Proven Social Media Strategies to Boost Insurance Sales in 2025
(TL;DR: Want to close more insurance deals in 2025? These 3 social media strategies help your team turn posts into pipeline: 1) Let your agents build their brand. 2) Turn DMs into quotes. 3) Use voice notes to stand out.)
In 2025, growing an insurance business isn't just about people telling their friends about you or buying leads. It's about how your team uses social media.
Many insurance companies post online but don't get new customers from it. Here are three easy ways insurance agents can sell more, build trust, and grow their business using tools they already have.
All three focus on one goal: connecting with customers where they spend time online, and doing it in a friendly way.
1. Build Producer Credibility with Personal Brand Content
Want to help agents build trust online?
The old way was keeping your company logo front and center. But now, the best companies let their agents be the face of the business.
Why it works: People trust other people more than company logos. When agents share helpful information, like customer stories or simple tips, people start to trust them.
How to do it:
-
Give agents templates they can change a little.
-
Highlight your best agents on your company page.
-
Post short, useful videos, not just promos.
You don't need millions of views. You just need to be seen by the right people. And you're not losing control of your brand, you're putting it in trusted hands.
2. Convert Social Engagement into Sales with Direct Messages
Tired of waiting for lead forms to come in?
The best sales talks today start in a comment, a reply to a story, or when someone saves your video.
Why it works: Social media gives you warm leads, as long as you follow up. When someone comments on your post, that's a real sign of interest. Don't ignore it.
How to do it:
-
Monitor Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook replies.
-
Treat DMs like calls: reply fast and be clear.
-
Track closes in a spreadsheet or CRM.
This is an easy way to turn posts into sales, especially for home, auto, life insurance, and referrals.
3. Use LinkedIn Voice Notes to Personalize Insurance Sales
Want to get noticed in a busy inbox?
Try using your voice instead of just typing.
Why it works: A short voice message on LinkedIn feels personal and real. It gets attention and makes people stop scrolling. Even better? It takes just a few seconds to send.
How to do it:
-
Follow up with a short, friendly voice note.
-
Use audio replies in DMs.
-
Turn good voice messages into posts with captions
