Tweetable Quotes:

“ When somebody tells you you can't do something or it's not possible, I'm going to prove you wrong. Number one, I'm going to show you what can be done and I'm going to show you how I can do it.” - Todd Thams

“The best way to get better is when you compete with somebody who you perceive to be your equal. Then you went against them because you really had to sharpen your pencil and bring out all your tools to win against a formidable opponent.” - Todd Thams

“I think we need to change the dynamic of work comp a little bit anyway and not make it a four-letter word but, actually make it a positive experience. If we can actually help agents, help businesses, help their employees reduce claims, and provide a better experience in that process, I think it's a win for the entire industry.” - Todd Thams
