Insurance Lead Generation: Numbers That Matter
Insurance Lead Generation: Numbers That Matter
You spent $3,200 on internet leads last month with a 6% close rate. That's $533 per sale on $1,800 policies. We need to talk about this math.
Craig and Jason break this down from hundreds of conversations with agents at every stage. Here's what moves the needle.
The 80/20 of Agency Work
Most agents: 80% of time on 20% of revenue. Admin, minimum policies, questions Google handles. Breakthrough: identify your 20% activities — closing commercial, building referrals, strategic planning — and protect time for them ruthlessly.

Asset vs Job
Test: stop working 30 days. Revenue continue? If yes, you built an asset. If no, you bought a job with no benefits and no PTO. Goal isn't working IN your agency forever — it's building something that works without daily involvement.

The Weekly Rhythm
Monday: team huddle, pipeline review. Tues-Thurs: revenue activities, client meetings. Friday: operations and planning. Protect this rhythm. When urgent overrides important — it tries daily — you stay stuck in operator mode.

One Change This Week
Don't overhaul everything. Pick one thing. Implement before Friday. Document a process. Make a call. Cancel a subscription. Momentum beats perfection. Great agencies aren't built in one dramatic move — one disciplined week at a time.

This changed how I run my morning team huddles.
Required reading for any serious agent.
Been doing this for 2 years and wish I started sooner.
The accountability framework alone is worth the read.
Real talk from real producers. No guru BS.
Finally someone says it like it is.
Implemented this last quarter - 23% increase in close rate.
Sent this to every agent on my team.
