Technology is reshaping insurance placement, but the most powerful solutions don't just automate—they amplify human expertise. This fascinating conversation with Team CRC's ExecPro Broker Brian Benda and Director of Digital Distribution Erin Dyer reveals how CRC’s Quick Quotes platform delivers exactly that balance.

Quick Quotes began as an internal tool refined over five years before being extended to retail partners. What makes it revolutionary isn't just the instant quotes—it's the seamless connection to specialist brokers who remain ready to assist. This hybrid approach means retail agents can handle small accounts efficiently without sacrificing the specialized knowledge that complex placements demand. Combined with features like limit benchmarking reports and side-by-side coverage comparisons, Quick Quotes transforms the entire placement process from submission to proposal.

Currently supporting cyber liability, miscellaneous professional liability, and employment practices liability, the platform lets retail agents choose which markets to approach and offers multiple pathways for data collection based on client preferences. This flexibility acknowledges a fundamental truth: technology should adapt to how people work, not force people to adapt to technology.
