Recruit AND Retain Successful

Insurance Agents?

It is Possible!

You did it!  You have found the perfect candidate...an insurance agent who has the skills and personality to be a huge success, and a huge asset to your agency! But wait...within three months they have decided insurance sales is not for them and you have to hire a replacement. And so it goes, again and again…

Is there a way to recruit AND retain successful insurance agents so that you are not constantly on the recruitment hamster wheel? 

We think so, and we have the solution!  Well, maybe not the solution, but we have found an expert who has experienced these same issues, and discovered some things that are key to enhancing recruitment and retainment strategies...and we’re going to share him with you!

On Tuesday, August 25 at 2:00pm ET, VanillaSoft’s in-house insurance expert, Bergen Wilde, will be joined by David Bryant, CEO at Brystra Insurance Services & Avocado HR. David has seen it all when it comes to agent recruitment – he knows his stuff!  Join us as we discuss: 

  • Why insurance agencies are constantly hiring
  • How much constant agent churn is really costing
  • What can be done to increase retention – and profitability! 

If you’re looking to amp up your staffing game, you won’t want to miss this webinar.
