Hidden Risks of Agency Contracts and How to Avoid Them
Many agency owners assume they own their book of business—but the reality can be far more complicated.
In this episode of Agency Ascend, we dive deep into the ownership dilemma that many agents face. While you may have control over client data, do you really own your carrier contracts? The difference could be the deciding factor in whether you can sell, scale, or exit your agency on your terms.
Industry experts break down the pitfalls of captive models, the hidden risks in agency contracts, and why independent agency networks are reshaping the industry. If you’re an agent thinking about scaling or acquiring a book of business, this is the conversation you need to hear.
📈 Tune in for insights on protecting your agency, maximizing growth, and making the smartest moves in today’s insurance landscape.
