Troy Korsgaden - Inflection Point

In this episode, Troy Korsgaden and I talk about his latest book, "Inflection point," and his experience consulting insurance agencies and insurance carriers and other life hacks. Troy started his insurance career in 1983. He has instructed and spoken with hundreds of thousands of executives, agents, brokers, and staff members. He authored six books promoting his mission to help the insurance industry to wake up to the radical transformation that is taking place.

Don't put the sale first, don't put the commission first. That comes at the end.
It'll come naturally, it always has. So just be like water, let it flow and as it comes to you serve the customer and then be prepared to offer your product solution.

In our session, Ryan points to the conditions and the “systems” currently in use that make GloveBox’s value proposition so appealing. He adds depth to this with his experience growing an agency in Denver, CO.

Andy Priesman - CEO and Founder of Cover Desk

Cover Desk Founder and CEO Andy Priesman is an insurance industry veteran with extensive operational experience. He knows what it takes to make an independent insurance agency run well because he’s done it in his own business. Andy talks with Gilad about Cover Desk, a call center that started as a back office for Greenway and rapidly grew from there.

…we become more of a service center for some of those agencies, and as long as you can give the service and the support that's needed and the client gets what they need in a great way, I think that’s where the future lies
