In this episode of The Rodney Mattos Show, Rodney Mattos Sr. sits down with Andy Neary to break down how artificial intelligence is quietly transforming independent insurance agencies and why those who embrace it early are building a massive competitive advantage.

This isn’t an AI hype episode. It’s a real-world, operator-to-operator conversation about how agencies are moving from 30% to 50%+ EBITDA by redesigning how work actually moves through their business.
