Listen "10 Big Shifts That Could Hit Your Agency Like a Freight Train (And Why Preparing Now Is the Only Smart Move)"
Episode Synopsis
This isn’t a tactics episode.
If you’re looking for better subject lines or how to get more likes on your next post… wrong time, wrong episode.
This one’s big picture. Strategy. CEO-to-CEO.
Michael steps back and scans the landscape of the insurance industry — and the wider economy — to highlight 10 major shifts that could dramatically impact your agency in the months and years ahead. Some are obvious. Some are subtle. All of them are real.
From AI-powered direct-to-consumer models to valuation cliffs, from producer droughts to internal cost-cutting with AI, this episode is a boardroom-level conversation with one goal:
→ Help you prepare while others wait.
You’ll hear:
What Apple’s China risk can teach every agency owner
Why hard markets create “false growth” (and what comes next)
How embedded insurance and underwriting AI could quietly eat your lunch
Why lagging on AI adoption isn’t just inefficient — it’s dangerous
The strategic shift you can make now that most agencies still ignore
Get out your notepad. This one’s a checklist episode — and it might be the most valuable 30 minutes of your quarter.
