DALLAS, Tex. - EFG Companies, the innovator behind the award-winning Hyundai Assurance program, recently hosted its 7^th National Agent Council, and honored Empire Dealer Services with the Annual Top Agent Award. This marks the second time the Principal Owners and Founders of Empire Dealer Services, John Kane and Edward Adamson, have won the award.

“This award underscores the collaborative relationship between EFG and Empire Dealer Services,” said John Kane, Cofounder of Empire Dealer Services. “By working with EFG to implement effective dealer solutions, as well as proactively train our people and our dealership clients, we’ve increased PRU by $200 to $250, with a VSC production increase of 10 percent and an appearance protection production increase of 25 percent.”

EFG Companies’ Annual Top Agent Award is determined by overall product production performance, effective training, and comprehensive achievements throughout the year.

Hosted in the spring and fall of each year, EFG’s National Agent Council is designed to provide a collaborative environment in which agents can formalize their strategies to better serve their dealer clients, improve F&I performance, and increase dealer profit.

This year, EFG’s premier agents from across the United States attended a two-day hunting excursion at the High Lonesome Ranch in Melvin, TX, owned by renowned dealer – Nyle Maxwell, to discuss current industry trends and challenges, share best practices and discuss new product innovation.

“Our agent council emphasizes our core support of our agents’ long-term strategies,” said Eric Fifield, Executive Vice President, EFG Companies. “By stepping back to dissect market trends and map agent progress on hitting their goals, we can effectively evaluate how to better contribute to their success and build their business.”
