Picking up the phone, having a conversation, sharing information, making a problem go away or just wishing someone Happy Birthday – with our clients and with each other, that’s how we have always worked.
Every company in our group is a professional team with an experienced leader and we have always worked together. We have always cross-pollinated our expertise and experience – and it’s because of this fully integrated thinking and holistic approach that the Pogir Group has grown to offer services in different specialised areas: Short-Term Insurance, Healthcare Solutions, Employee Benefits, Life and Financial Planning and Wealth Management.
We use technology to speed things up where it can, make systems more efficient and processes simpler – but there isn’t any technology that can make your advice and policies better.
Only people who know you, who understand you and your needs, can do that.
People share experiences. Systems can’t do that. It’s why we still prefer a handshake to an e-mail signature. That’s the power of people.
You feel a lot better knowing your claim or query is in someone’s hands – rather than just logged somewhere, in the system.
We use technology where it can improve our service levels and not just because it’s a trend – but we rely on good old fashioned hard working people more.
