Get More Out of Your Budget with the Trusted Choice Marketing Reimbursement Program

As a Big “I” member, you have access to an array of Trusted Choice marketing resources provided to help you boost your online presence. The Marketing Reimbursement Program is one of the most popular and valuable benefits that Trusted Choice offers. For 2023, we've made some exciting changes to this program to make it even more streamlined, easier to use, and to give members more options for reimbursable expenses.

With the Marketing Reimbursement Program members can get back up to $1,000 in reimbursement at 50% of the cost of the service, helping you to put more focus on investing in your business and attracting more customers. Further, any previous use of the program has been reset, making all members eligible to take advantage of these exciting new benefits! Funds will replenish for all members in 2024, allowing you to take advantage of this reimbursement opportunity for another year.

There are three ways to use the Trusted Choice MRP. The first option is digital cobranding, which involves using the Trusted Choice logo on digital marketing materials like social media graphics, digital display ads, and other digital options. By leveraging digital cobranding, you can showcase your affiliation as a Trusted Choice Independent Agent, which is a valuable asset in demonstrating your commitment to high-quality service.

The second way to receive funds from the MRP is through traditional cobranding. This involves using the Trusted Choice logo on any offline media to reach your intended audience. Traditional marketing tactics can include direct mail campaigns, billboards, event sponsorship, and more. However, it's important to note that business cards and office supplies are no longer eligible for traditional marketing reimbursement.

Trusted Choice's newest addition to the Marketing Reimbursement Program for 2023 is TechCompare. TechCompare is a comprehensive online resource that highlights a wide range of service providers, each with their own unique areas of focus and expertise. By exploring various vendors on the platform, members can compare prices, features, and customer feedback to make an informed decision when selecting a vendor. This user-friendly interface makes it easy to find the right solutions for your specific needs, whether you need help with digital marketing, SEO, social media, website development, or any other area. With TechCompare, you can be sure that you're getting the best value for your investment in marketing services. We understand that working with external vendors comes with a cost, which is why we included TechCompare in our MRP to help offset some of the costs.

The Trusted Choice Marketing Reimbursement Program offers a range of options to help members grow their businesses through marketing. Whether you choose to leverage the power of digital or traditional co-branding, or take advantage of the TechCompare Vendors platform, you can be sure that you are making the proper moves to increase your agency’s visibility. With the Marketing Reimbursement Program, Big "I" members have access to valuable resources that can help take their businesses to the next level.
