  • Key Quotes:

    • “The insurance producer, who is micro-niche, is the one who wins the day. Period. And, so the riches are in the micro-niches.” - Charles Specht
    • “Being micro-niched allows you to write significantly larger accounts. If you are a generalist, that's not necessarily true. You're not going to be able to write larger accounts all the time. But, being micro niched separates you from the competition.” - Charles Specht
    • “The focus is that the riches are in the micro-niches. If you get that... you are going to have a book of business that will explode. - Charles Specht
