The buzzword for the last 18 months? DISRUPTER.
A disrupter is anything that disrupts the way that we do business. Your ability to remain profitable is determined by how you and your agents respond to disrupters. There will ALWAYS be disrupters and disrupters will always affect our industry and retention.
So much change has happened. New companies jockeying to take over the market, and a few who left the market or merged. There have been billions of dollars in investor backing for startups 18 months ago, but not so much today. Now we are seeing leadership shakeups, mergers, alliances, technology – and lawsuits. And honestly – we won’t even know the full extent of disruption for probably two years!
So, what do agents want and need during this time of change?
Solutions. Calm. Systems. Training. Tools. Answers. Now is the time to improve, re-engage, and re-examine what you by way of offerings and determine where you can make things even better.
If you can be agent-centric and provide the support that they need to be consumer-centric – you’ll have a winning combination.
On our recent webinar, I shared the stats and numbers you need to compete in this changing and sometimes challenging market.

- Know your value. What are the things that you do or offer that are exceptional? How can you not only build on that value, but improve on it?
