Captain's Table 2008
We are certain that you, as an ACE agent, will want to be part of next year's Captain's Table. So set your sights on an award and join us in pursuit of marine excellence! Remember if you're not leading, the view is always the same!
Here are the categories for the year 2008 competition. How will you plan to win?
Highest Profit Agencies
The most important factor of success for both agents and the company is profit, and accordingly we will continue to award 5 winner's titles to the agencies with the highest level of profit dollars generated throughout the year.
Promising Future
We feel it is critical to recognize those agencies focusing their efforts on developing new business for profitable growth, and we will honor 2 winners in this category.
- Highest Premium Growth over Prior Year ($)
- Highest Premium Growth over Prior Year (%)
"Squeaky Clean" Award
Possibly the most challenging of our new competitions, the agency that earns the most premium while not incurring one single loss, will be declared "Squeaky Clean"!
Special Recognition Award ("Wild Card")
As we all know, many intangible measures of success also exist in our business. For example, an agency may not have the very highest profit or growth, but instead is among the leaders year after year. We believe that such consistently impressive results must be recognized and rewarded. In this category, each ACE Recreational Marine field office nominates one agency from their territory and two winners are chosen from among the nominees.
Of course, certain earned premium criteria and minimum requirements will apply to each category. Additional details of the contest will be provided throughout the year, along with periodic updates on your results in the competition.
