Today RTRS introduced a new Automated Risk Assessment Module allows companies to create assessments that ask potential or existing customers various questions about their business. The assessment questions are weighted by leveraging a score key. Templates can be made for prequalifying companies, customer risk profiling, risk mitigation and risk underwriting.
Once an assessment has been developed companies can post it to their website using a URL that links to each assessment, embed assessment links in email signatures and even create QR Codes which, when clicked, opens the assessment for any company performing a self assessment.
When each company completes the assessment they are provided with a customized automated report that your company can configure based on the score they receive on each section. Your logo is included on the report and you can create hyperlinks within the report to services you can provide based on their score becoming a profit center for new business.
It’s completely automated for inbound marketing and prequalifying and is a Swiss army knife for companies with unlimited capabilities. RTRS is available to assist with a turn-key solution by building your assessments, providing scoring weights and producing risk recommendations for you as well.
