CLEARWATER, Fla., June 11, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via PRWEB - Agent Link, the insurance marketing firm out of Clearwater, Florida, launched AgenteNews at the company's inception to provide insurance agents and financial advisors with cutting-edge tools and information as well as an online forum and community. In addition to its groundbreaking articles from successful agents/advisors around the country and original insurance comics, the new site introduces a plethora of interactive features and pages including everything from industry-related crossword puzzles and Agent Spotlight Q & As to professional documentary-style videos and an Insurance Forum to stimulate dialogue on key issues.

In addition to this long list of valuable features, AgenteNews now offers agents, brokerages and carriers a "Find a Company or Product" reference tool. Keyword searches allow visitors to access company profiles and summaries to learn about products, markets, location, and area(s) of expertise. What's more, many company profiles feature a video highlighting the unique aspects of their business.

"We're bridging gaps and connecting people across the insurance industry with this platform," said Agent Link President Senia Gramajo, "In a single snapshot, AgenteNews visitors are able to stay informed about current insurance trends as well as companies or products in their chosen markets. Agents can use the company profile feature to find carriers that fit their needs, while brokerages and carriers can use it as a tool to reach out to insurance agents."

The new AgenteNews site and the "Find a Company or Product" reference tool launched mid-April and can be accessed at http://www.agentenews.com. The response from agents has been great:

"As a financial services professional with more than 25 years' experience, I have grown to understand the importance of having timely, accurate and relevant content that benefits me directly and that I can share with my business partners and clients. AgenteNews is one of my go-to resources for staying fully informed," said Fundamerica CEO Mark Collins.
