Director of Business Development @Superior Insurance Partners

After 20+ years in the insurance industry, I understand most agency owners view the future in two paths. One - remaining fiercely independent with a solid business plan. However, this path would be a hard-fought road and often feels impossible to achieve their goals without assistance. Many chose premium aggregation, carrier markets offered by clustering with other agencies, or various other resource networks, but it was not usually enough return on investment to make much difference. The other path - being gobbled up by a large consolidator where the agency would lose its identity, often its employees and no longer hang on to the things which made the business successful to start. The agency would become a shell of what it originally set out to be and was no longer autonomous leading to disappointing results. I joined Superior Insurance Partners as a Director of Business Development to offer something else. A flexible, differentiated path for agencies where they could maximize the value of the business, they had worked so hard to build, but while keeping their culture and control. I spent most of my career as a commercial P&C broker for large accounts that were each more than in revenue, attaining my CIC and CRM along the way. After which, I managed the development of new membership for the largest, independent aggregation network in the country. During my time at ISU Insurance Agency Network, I spoke to thousands of agency owners about how to improve their growth, contingencies, carrier markets, and revenue generating strategies for the future of their business. I live in Chester County, Pennsylvania outside of Philadelphia and am Director of Business Development in the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast Regions of the US including PA, DE, NJ, MD, DC, VA, WV and the Carolinas.
