I found this book very easy to read and full of great infornation. It broke down a lot of the topics so it was easier to understand than the required GA insurance class room book. The only draw back I found is that it will not give specific information on your State. Basically, I used this book to study for my exam and I passed the first time.

I had no problems with the CD and I do strongly recommend this book as a easy to comprehend study guide.

Predicated upon the glowing description of the "Exam Cram Property and Casualty Insurance License Exam" test manual, I decided to purchase it to
augment other test guides in preparation for my upcoming Property/Casualty
Insurance Producer’s exam.

I have no complaint with the book itself; with the exception of no state-specific material, it seems fairly comprehensive.

I do, however, have a serious complaint about the CD-ROM Exam Simulator
which is inoperable, based upon an evaluation generated by the CD itself,
indicating that all but one of the .dll files had not been loaded.

I contacted Pearson’s (the publisher’s) Customer Service department, and
was given several different options, one of which was to send (1) the original receipt from Amazon (fortunately, I made copies); (2) a Xerox of the back cover, showing the ISBN number; and (3) my name, address, and
phone number.

Trustingly, I sent these data, assuming Pearson would send me a fully-loaded CD-ROM which I could use on my computer.

Naturally, they did no such thing, instead, counselling me to "return the book to Amazon for a refund or an exchange." (I informed them that the fault lay with them - not Amazon - and exchanging the book might cause me to receive another CD-ROM that was equally defective.)

My last e-mail to them was March 26th; to date, I have not heard from Pearson, and probably never will.

I told them that it was foolish to incur the ill-will of a customer who
might have given them repeat business, but evidently, the customer’s sensibilities (over a defective product) are of little moment to a publishing conglomerate.

I shall keep the book (because I need it), but the memory of their bad faith shall live on, in this negative review.

Take heed from my bad experience before you consider purchasing a book
with an Exam Simulator that can’t be used - nor will the company have the graciousness, or the common sense, to replace.

This book is well written to the layman who is looking for non-technical writing to a technical subject.

I am just starting out in the insurance field as an Agent with no prior experience. During the time between making the decision to make the leap and actually landing a job, I dug every where I could looking for resources on everything that had to do with being a P&C Producer. By far, I would say this is one of the best resources for someone trying to get a good overview on how to think like one.

Of course, it is a bit cheerlead-y and full of narative, but quite honestly, it’s what I found charming. I needed something that could hit home to me and motivate me to keep trying at something that seems very difficult.

I would highly recommend it to those looking for a good read on the (human) aspects of Business P&C Insurance.

Most agents whether just beginning or experienced will find something helpful in this book. Baxter provides a fairly comprehensive look at the whole process selling commercial insurance. He gives plenty of sample letters and has quite an extensive appendix.

Some of the material and methodology was slightly dated, as can be expected. But, one should be able to use his approach as a good foundation for commercial sales. Baxter included a number of practical illustrations which most people will find helpful, but can be a bit tedious.

Perhaps the best part of the book besides the sample letters is his walk through the sales process from the first meeting, through the interview, during submission, and on to a final proposal. If you want to market commercial insurance this book will help you get started.

I am just getting started in my commercial P&C career. I do not even have my license yet, but feel a whole lot more comfortable talking to veterans of the industry. This is definitely not the end-all be-all of insurance books, but it is simple enough to get started with.

I started off with insurance texts and they were so dry that I could barely stay awake. After Insurance Commander I now have a grasp of the basic intricacies of the business. The only thing I would change about the book is the name (a little cheesy?).

Mr. Dunbar seems to speak from real life experiences where he had to overcome all the obstacles that doom many insurance sales. His categories of customer personality types, their typical complaints or objections, and the approach to winning them over is priceless. His stories are laced with wonderful humor that turns what could be deadly dull material into fascinating reading. Experience is the best teacher, but Mr. Dunbar has done the next best thing—-given a sales person some wonderful tools to avoid a bad experience.
