About this listen
Struggling to turn your agency into a business? This book was written for agents by an agent and with a slightly more academic slant than my other sales books. Most of this information is grounded in practical trial and error and backed by data and proven methodologies.
I wrote this audiobook not for fun or for my health. I wrote this book out of necessity to transform my own insurance agency into an actual business. When I first applied for a small business loan through the EDC, I got an education really quick as to what I didn't know about what I didn't know. This audiobook would be a good listen for agents, personal lines managers, and/or agency consultants.

When a marketing rep comes into your office or someone from the management team and tells you to "sell the value", how often do you find yourself rolling your eyes? As a former agency owner and now a consultant, I often find myself spouting the same slogan. Why? Because, I have done it and done it quite successfully. Whenever a rep came into my office and told me to sell the value of carrier X, I would think that’s something an expensive company would say or an overpriced company, because what else could they say?
