Tony chats with Andrew Filar, Co-Founder at Next Call Club and CEO at Peachy Insurance. While Tony spent 10 years talking about how the captive agent model was dying, Andrew quietly proved him wrong, and blew his mind. In 9 years Andrew went from brand new out of college to CEO of the largest Allstate agent in the country, to creating his own agency, growing it from scratch to $5M in 3 years, and creating his own consulting firms to help other exclusive agencies do the same. WHAT?!?!?! If you're an agent, YOU CANNOT MISS THIS EPISODE!

Tony chats with Yaron Dycian, Chief Product and Strategy Officer at WINT Water Intelligence. They specialize in managing water in buildings which comes in through dumb pipes and is used by dumb valves and faucets. It's an unmanaged resource! Managing water is becoming a serious issue, even in the developed world. Unbelievably, about 25% of all water in a building is wasted because of death by a thousand cuts! Water damage in buildings is one of the very highest causes of property losses and WINT can radically improve that.

Tony chats with Bill Haber, Co-Founder at TEKRiSQ. They're focused on helping independent agencies and the carriers and MGAs they work with to better streamline the process of engaging clients in technology-oriented risks. They're very focused on Cyber, one of the fastest-growing lines of business. We shouldn't ask agents (or business owners) to be part-time Cyber Security Experts. This is way too important of a line of coverage to get wrong! TEKRiSQ can help you get the most reliable information in the most streamlined way to fill out a proper Cyber application.
