Gene Price Senior Benefits

A lead-generation site for a family-owned insurance agency in Thomasville, Georgia. Visitors pick one of two doors, Medicare or under 65, and each door leads to its own short form, its own inbox, and its own phone line, so the office knows who is asking before it calls back.

The Gene Price Senior Benefits homepage: a photo of the white brick office with its bright blue front door, and a framed white sign board reading Come on in, with two navy buttons for Medicare and Under 65.
The homepage opens on the office itself, with the choice of door hung on a sign board beside the real one.

Two kinds of client, one generic contact button.

Gene Price Senior Benefits is a family-owned, independent insurance agency at 614 Victoria Place in Thomasville. Gene Price, the broker, has been licensed since 1970 and has spent more than fifty years in life and health insurance. A full office staff handles clients day to day.

The office serves two markets that rarely overlap. On one side is Medicare: Supplement, Advantage, Part D, and plans for people with both Medicare and Medicaid. On the other is everyone under 65 who buys their own coverage: ACA marketplace plans through Georgia Access, and short-term medical from UnitedHealthcare.

The previous site was a WordPress build where every visitor, Medicare or not, ended up at the same generic “Contact us” or “Get in touch” button. Nothing on it asked which kind of help a person needed.

Which door is yours?

The office has a bright blue front door, so the site does too. The first decision a visitor makes is Medicare or under 65, and every step after that is written for the door they picked.

The coverage section of the homepage: a navy Medicare panel listing Medicare Supplement, Medicare Advantage, Part D drug plans, and Medicare and Medicaid, beside a light blue Under 65 panel listing ACA health plans and short-term medical from UnitedHealthcare.
The two markets side by side on the homepage, each with its own plan types and its own button through to its door.

Four decisions behind the doors.

A Medicare visitor is often wary of call-center pressure, and is sometimes an adult child helping a parent. The site has to feel like a local office with real people in it, not a quote funnel.

  • Route in the first screen

    Medicare or under 65 is the first question on the homepage, drawn as a pair of doorways. Nobody has to read through the other market to find their own form.

  • Two funnels, two inboxes

    Each door leads to its own three-step form, and each form posts to its own inbox. The two markets arrive separately, and each has its own phone line.

  • Type you can read at arm’s length

    Many Medicare visitors are 64 or older, often on a phone or tablet. Body text is set at 20px, buttons and fields are large, and the phone number is always one tap away.

  • Compliance as part of trust

    Medicare marketing is regulated by CMS. The required disclaimer is visible, nothing implies government affiliation, and every form asks for explicit consent to be contacted.

Behind each door, a short way in.

The Medicare door

A page per market, in plain English.

Each market gets its own page that opens on the questions people actually ask, with one button into the form and the Medicare line right beside it.

The top of the Medicare page: a navy header with the headline Medicare, sorted out by someone who’s done it since 1970, a plain-language lede, a Get started button, and a white button with the phone number 229-421-1236.

The lead form

Three short steps, then a phone call.

The form asks only what the office needs for a first call. Step one is a set of large, tappable answers, including one for someone helping a parent. Beside it, a plain list says what happens next, and the phone number stays in reach for anyone who would rather call.

The Medicare lead form on a framed white board: Step 1 of 3, What brings you to us?, with five large radio options such as I’m turning 65 soon and I’m helping a parent or family member, beside a What happens next list and the phone number.

The enrollment calendar

A calendar that counts down for you.

Most changes can only happen during set windows. The calendar lists the Medicare Annual Enrollment, ACA Open Enrollment, and Medicare Advantage Open Enrollment windows, and works out a live status for each one when the page loads.

The Mark your calendar section: a framed table of three enrollment windows with their dates and status labels reading Opens tomorrow, Opens in 18 days, and Opens in 79 days, beside a note for people turning 65.

Built for a phone in one hand.

A lot of these visitors are reading on a phone or a tablet, and plenty of them are past 64. So the body text is set at 20px, the headings in Young Serif, and the doors stay big enough to hit with a thumb.

The phone number never hides. “Call us” sits in the header on every page, and on the Medicare page the office line sits right beside the main button.

  • The homepage on a phone: the office photo, then the Come on in sign board with large Medicare and Under 65 door buttons stacked full width.
    Home
  • The Medicare page on a phone: the headline in large serif type, a plain-language lede, a Get started button, and the phone number as a full button.
    Medicare

Small site, careful plumbing.

On a lead site, much of the important work happens after the click and never shows: where each form goes, what it promises, and what it is allowed to say about Medicare.

  • Static Astro, no client framework

    Every page is built ahead of time as plain HTML and CSS, with no client-side framework sent to the browser. Fonts are self-hosted, so nothing waits on a third party to render.

  • One form per market

    The Medicare and under-65 forms post to separate Formspree inboxes, so a Medicare lead and an ACA lead never land in the same pile.

  • Compliance in the markup

    The CMS third-party marketing disclaimer ships with the site, and every lead form carries explicit consent to be contacted by phone, text, and email.

  • A calendar that does the math

    Enrollment dates live in one config file. On load, each window works out whether it is open now or opens in a set number of days.

  • Leads tagged by market

    A successful form fires a GA4 generate_lead event tagged with its market, so Medicare and under-65 leads are counted separately. It starts reporting as soon as a GA4 ID is added to the site config.

  • Content carried over from WordPress

    Copy and contact details came from the old WordPress site, pulled through its REST API while that site sat in maintenance mode.

Colors from the logo, type from the sign.

The agency already had a logo in navy and sky blue. We kept both, took the accent from the front door, and set the headings in a serif that reads like the hand-lettered sign beside it.

Palette

  • Logo navy#183961
  • Door blue#2A9FD8
  • Sky wash#E2F0FA
  • Painted brick#EEF1F4

Navy anchors the headers and panels. Door blue is saved for the next step, like a button into a form, and the light tones sit behind the body text.

The decisions, stated plainly.

These are design facts, not results. The site is new, so there are no lead numbers to show yet.

  • Lead funnels

    2

    Medicare and under 65, each with its own form, its own inbox, and its own phone line. The office knows which market a lead belongs to before it calls back.

  • Form steps

    3

    Short steps with large, tappable answers. The form asks only what the office needs for a first call.

  • Body text

    20px

    Many Medicare visitors are 64 or older and reading on a phone or tablet, so the body text is set large.

  • Medicare carriers shown

    9

    The carrier strip shows the nine Medicare carriers the office sells, recolored to one navy so no single brand shouts.

  • Enrollment windows tracked

    3

    Medicare Annual Enrollment, ACA Open Enrollment, and Medicare Advantage Open Enrollment, each with a live status.

  • Licensed since

    1970

    Gene Price has more than fifty years in life and health insurance, and the site puts that history up front.
