Great video! The captive model is changing and there's proof of this all around. Indies are now being offered the ability to write "captive" insurance carriers. Someone considering the captive route should really take the time to digest this. Why are they allowing for indies to write their product now?

I'm biased because we're an indie network, but I feel very strongly that indie is the way of the future. More options to suit the client.

But in an effort to provide both sides of the coin (nobody does this anymore!) I will say that one thing that captives have going for them is the name brand recognition.

I see many new indies fail to understand that when you go indie, you are the brand. You are 100% responsible for making your phone ring. You're 100% responsible for driving traffic to the website.

Nobody is randomly searching your name on the internet, or contacting you because they saw a commercial on TV. There's a huge difference there!

When running an indie agency, one has to be savvy with marketing!

Hey Kenny its been a few weeks I have successfully passed my PA Life and Accident and Health Insurance Exam, ,,🎉🎉👏🏾🎊 but im thinking about going for my Brokers license, ,, thank you for all your help and Videos, ,, but I still have to get my fingerprints done. I definitely want to go Independent broker route.

This was the perfect video I needed. I'm with All-State & looking to switch i was offered a position with another big company, but I have another interview with a company today where I would be independent (Somewhat) but the no base salary threw me off... but I assumed there might actually be something good to it, just as u explained in this video. I'm thinking to give it a shot.

[Christimony]

Wow. You have the most incredible eyebrows.

[moneymagnet]

I started independently but I think I want captive to finally leave my fulltime job (not insurance) of six years

[musiccred]

Hey Kenny! Great video! Can I ask you, what CRM or platform do you use to get new applicants set up? For example, if I wanted to sign up leads on ObamaCare.. What platform can be used?

[zeriahmcneal]

great video !! Is there a company I could work for independently selling Auto, Homeowners, & life ?

[georgemungai]

Where does insurance brokerage like FFS stand in this

[gavinpruett]

Kenny, this video was very helpful and informative. I am interested in learning more on the topics you discussed. Is it possible for us to have a one on one Q&A?

[Insomniac]

When you say independent agent, does that mean you have to own agency? When you said your agents make their money on commission only, are they considered independent agents? Like can you be an independent agent without having your own agency.

great video Kenny, What software do you use to run multiple carriers quotes and how much does it cost?
