What you need to know about DocuSign®How does the authentication process work?

All signers will receive an email with a secure link. To access the policy and documents contained in the link, each signer must authenticate themselves using a four-digit PIN that will be either the last four digits of the signer’s Social Security number (SSN) or Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN). If an ePolicy Delivery case manager has been added, their PIN will be the first four digits of your Securian Financial life insurance code.

What happens if the DocuSign link has expired?

You will receive notification from Securian Financial that the link has expired. If you do not provide direction within five business days, the paper policy will be mailed to you.

Can I resend the link if my client lost the email?

No, you can contact Securian Financial to resend a lost email link, as long as it has not expired. Expired links cannot be reset.

How long is the DocuSign email valid?

The DocuSign email link is good for 14 calendar days. For example: If it takes you 10 days to sign, the client would only have four days then to sign before it would expire.

How do I know when the signatures are completed?

All signers receive a “Completed” email from DocuSign with a link to the signed documents. You can also view the status of all signers from the “eDelivery Details” tab within the Life Pending Business Tool.

How do I cancel or decline if I need to make changes?

Click “Other actions” then select “Cancel/decline” within DocuSign. Notify Securian Financial if you need to make changes or would prefer paper delivery.

I still have questions — who do I contact for help?

DOCUSIGNFAQ DOFU 10-2018

In today’s unprecedented times, it’s necessary to come up with new strategies for doing business. Holding client meetings virtually instead of welcoming them into your office will be an important service, especially for older clients. Use these 12 tips to help you hold an effective web meeting – no matter where you are.

1. Choose the right technology for the job

Think about the things you want to accomplish during the meeting: for example, will you need to show them something on your computer screen? Will you want to see something on theirs? Knowing the answers to these questions will help you determine which meeting technology to use.

2. Turn on your web camera and ask them to do the same

Although talking to a camera takes some getting used to, body language is a vital part of communication.

3. Email a personalized meeting invitation

Include simple log-in instructions and a personalized greeting. Do not rely on a meeting app’s default invitation to set the appointment!

4. Share an agenda and any documents you’ll discuss before the meeting

If your client wants to discuss a specific document during their meeting, ask them to send it to you ahead of time.

5. Control your image

Make the call in a room that gives a strong first impression, such as a boardroom or your office (but only if it’s clean!). Buying a webcam instead of relying on your computer’s built-in one gives you more control and a better picture. A few simple tricks, like positioning the camera so it’s at or slightly above your eyeline, avoiding back-lighting, and clearing up clutter behind you, can go a long way.

12 tips for effective web meetings with clients

Give us a call We talk to your peers every day and can share some of their best practices.

6. Get creative with hospitality

You can’t offer a beverage or take a coat, but you can make time for small talk and find other ways to make a connection and put your client at ease.

7. Security is critical

Whatever meeting technology you choose, make sure it offers end-to-end encryption so the meeting is secure. Zoom’s security protocol makes it the preferred meeting technology for many financial professionals.

8. Build in time for troubleshooting

Extend your normal meeting time by a few minutes in case there are technical difficulties. Or if you have support staff, they could call the client before the meeting to talk them through setting up the technology.

9. Use visuals as much as possible

They can help keep your client engaged throughout the meeting. Just make sure to have them ready and open ahead of time!

10. Split the video and audio feed

If a client has a spotty internet connection, consider asking them to call in on their phones and mute their computer audio. If their image freezes, you’ll still be able to hear what they’re saying.

11. Make sure all the right people are on the line

And if they’re not, offer to set up a three-way (or four- or five-way) conference call to get the necessary family members, partners, other financial professionals, etc. “in the room” as well.

12. Update your website to include “virtual meetings” as an offered service

Include a screenshot of an online meeting so clients know what to expect, plus a link to download the meeting technology you use most often.

1. With the addition of the No-Lapse Guarantee Agreement2. The no lapse guarantee value could be negative if monthly premium payments are not made on time. This may require the policy owner to pay a larger monthly premium in order to restore the no-lapse guarantee value to zero or greater. The no-lapse guarantee value has no impact on the policy’s cash value and cannot be surrendered or loaned against. Policy loans could cause the no-lapse guarantee value to be less than zero, which would require the repayment of the loan or the payment of additional premiums to restore the no-lapse guarantee value to zero or greater.Additional agreements may be available. Agreements may be subject to additional costs and restrictions. Agreements may not be available in all states, may exist under a different name in various states and may not be available in combination with other agreements.Depending upon actual policy experience, the Owner may need to increase premium payments to keep the policy in force. The Indexed Universal Life Series is designed first and foremost to provide life insurance protection. While the interest crediting options are attractive for cash accumulation, the product should always be promoted to first meet the death benefit needs of families and businesses with cash accumulation as a secondary benefit. Life insurance products contain fees, such as mortality and expense charges (which may increase over time), and may contain restrictions, such as surrender charges. One could lose money in these products. Policy loans and withdrawals may create an adverse tax result in the event of a lapse or policy surrender, and will reduce both the surrender value and death benefit. Withdrawals may be subject to taxation within the first 15 years of the contract. Clients should consult their tax advisor when considering taking a policy loan or withdrawal. Guarantees are based on the claims-paying ability of the issuing insurance company. All indexed accounts available with the Indexed Universal Life Series employ a point-to-point interest crediting method with one-year index segments — except where noted — established monthly. Interest credits for any index segment may range from 0% up to the maximum for that segment. These policies guarantee that the total interest credited over the life of the policies will not be less than a 2.00% effective annual interest rate. The underlying indices only recognize the changes in stock prices and do not include any dividend returns. While the policy and the Indexed Accounts do not actually participate in the stock market or the S&P 500® Index, and one cannot invest directly in an index, the performance of the underlying index may exceed the offered indexed growth caps. Interest crediting within these accounts will vary based on the movement of the investments within the underlying index. Should the index have 0% growth or decline, policy owners bear the risk that no index credit will be given to the account. i.
