Dear Shalu,

You have been an excellent advisor to me with regards to financial investments. Highlighting a specific/ unique ability would be difficult. I will try to summarize our experience with you below.

  • You are a very pleasant person.
  • You believe in your product and are confident in explaining your product, this makes us very comfortable.
  • Importantly, you have a consultative mindset which allows you to find/customize solutions to fit our requirements/needs.
  • You have been very calm and patient with me when it comes to shifting/changing of meeting timings, accept my apology again for that.

Dear Shalu,

As we all know, each individual is unique. In my interaction with you as an insurance professional of more than six years, I have found you to be diligent (as in your routine communication related to insurance).

I do appreciate your promptness in action (as in your swift response on the critical illness claim procedure). My wife and I appreciate your concern for a fellow human being when they are in difficulty, (as you visited us in person to meet us).

Your ability to communicate clearly and providing information in advance ( as in your communications related to premium payments)
