Does Size Really Matter? Micah Wants To Know


Listen Later

In this episode, Trey and Micah ask the question every producer eventually wrestles with:

Does size really matter?

We’re talking book size, account revenue, floor-setting, and the mental games that come with chasing whales vs. stacking solid mid-market wins.

Micah breaks down how he closed 7 clients in under 30 days—without landing a single “whale.” Meanwhile, a buddy of his who crushed year one is now scrambling after losing both his biggest accounts… to no fault of his own.

You’ll hear:

  • The real risk of going whale-only (and why you need diversification)

  • What a $100K month of mid-market wins looks like

  • How to set your revenue floor—and when to raise it

  • Why big accounts don’t always mean big service

  • How to use tools like Insurance Xdate to pre-qualify

  • Why your ideal account size is relative to your goal (and your split)

Plus: Micah returns to the golf course after a six-month layoff, goes full Jim Venetos, and drops an 84 after starting quad-double 😮‍💨

This one’s for every producer who's tired of comparing themselves to others—and wants to build a book that fits their goals.
