This research inquires into the relationship between the brand identification of life insurance salesman and their work results. Questionnaire survey was taken to collect data. 198 questionnaires were sent to insurance salesmen in four life insurance companies, which are two domestic and two foreign invested companies. Statistical software STATISTICA, version 6, is used for statistical analysis.
The factor analysis is used to find out factors from 38 questions on brand identification. Seven factors were obtained, and they were named (1) product factor (2)public relations publicity factor (3)inner-controlled and the administrative efficiency factor (4)system approbation factor,(5)financial controls ability factor,(6)brand identification factor (7)the salesman image.
The ordered logit model is used to estimate the effect of brand identification to work results. We found that brand identification and public relations and publicity are the most important factors in terms of affecting work results. The OLS method is used to estimate factors affecting work behavior. We found that public relations and publicity, administrative efficiency and reward systems are the most important factors.
This research confirms our hypothesis that the brand identification affects the work results of salesperson in the life insurance industry.
