Send your agent vCard so clients save your info. Your name appears on all future messages — building the personal relationship insurance depends on.
By the Numbers
Send a Renewal Reminder
Automatically text a policyholder about their upcoming renewal and attach a policy summary PDF:
// Send policy renewal reminder
const response = await fetch('https://api.sendblue.co/api/send-message', {
method: 'POST',
headers: {
'sb-api-key-id': process.env.SENDBLUE_API_KEY,
'sb-api-secret-key': process.env.SENDBLUE_API_SECRET,
'Content-Type': 'application/json'
},
body: JSON.stringify({
number: '+14155551234',
content: 'Hi David, your auto policy renews on March 15. '
+ 'Your new premium is $142/mo (down from $156). '
+ 'Want to review any changes before it auto-renews?',

});Why Insurance Agents Need iMessage
Insurance is a relationship business. But maintaining those relationships at scale is hard when clients ignore emails and screen phone calls. The average insurance email has an 18% open rate, and phone pickup rates are under 10%. Meanwhile, policy renewals lapse, claims go unacknowledged, and cross-sell opportunities are missed.
iMessage through Sendblue changes this. A blue bubble text feels like a message from a trusted friend, not a marketing blast. Insurance agents using Sendblue report 30-45% response rates on client outreach — making it the most effective channel for renewals, claims follow-ups, and quoting.
For health insurance agents handling sensitive information, Sendblue's SOC 2 Type II certification and HIPAA compliance provide the security foundation your practice needs. All messages are encrypted in transit, and audit trails are maintained for regulatory compliance.
