    In this Power Producers Podcast episode, David Carothers discusses the fundamentals of prospecting and building a successful leads list. Drawing from his own experiences and 20 years in the industry, he emphasizes the importance of starting with a strong foundation and avoiding the temptation to rely too heavily on technology and automated lead-building tools. David also highlights how using underwriter insights and geography-specific databases can unlock hidden opportunities in your market. The episode provides actionable tips for producers, including how to leverage public records, county databases, and specific industry niches to build a robust prospecting system. David encourages agents to think beyond the typical marketing tools and instead focus on finding unique, untapped business opportunities by using the data available right at their fingertips. Key Highlights: Back to Basics: Building a Leads List David stresses the importance of demographics and ideal prospect identification when building a leads list, highlighting that the fundamentals haven’t changed in 20 years, no matter how much technology evolves. Leveraging Underwriters for Niche Markets David recommends asking underwriters what business classes they’re good at but not receiving many submissions for. This often leads to discovering underutilized niches that can become high-opportunity areas. Using Local Databases for Prospecting David shares how he used local county databases to identify manufacturers who were likely to need insurance, providing a competitive advantage. He encourages producers to research local public databases like property appraisers and occupational licenses. The Importance of a Sustainable Prospecting System David highlights the benefits of building a long-term leads list, focusing on sustainability rather than quick wins. His system has led to years of continued success, proving the value of investing the time upfront. Technology vs. Traditional Prospecting David compares the rise of prospecting software tools like Leo and Buy Edge with traditional methods, warning that while these tools can improve efficiency, the foundation of building a strong prospect list still relies on manual work and research. Why the Foundation Matters David shares his personal story of starting from scratch, building a high-value prospecting list through hard work and research, and how this has continued to pay dividends throughout his career.

    2025/07/09
    In this episode of the Power Producers Podcast, host David Carothers welcomes back Colby Tunick from ReFocus AI. Colby dives deep into the company’s latest innovation that’s transforming the way insurance agencies service policies. Refocus AI, which started with helping agencies predict customer churn, has now transitioned to automating one of the most time-consuming aspects of insurance — quoting policies. Colby shares how their new technology is helping agencies scale efficiently without burning out staff, allowing producers to focus on building relationships and growing their book of business. Key Highlights: The Problem of Time-Intensive Service Work Refocus AI began by addressing the issue of time spent servicing existing policies. Colby discusses how insurance agencies spend a significant portion of their time on renewals, quoting, and policy servicing, which takes away from their ability to acquire new business. Introducing IntelliAgent: The Virtual Assistant for Insurance Agencies Refocus AI's new tool, IntelliAgent, acts as a virtual assistant that automates the quoting process. This AI-powered system logs into carrier portals, retrieves rates, and delivers bindable quotes, freeing up agents' time to focus on client relationships. Scaling without Burning Out Colby explains how automating the quoting process can help agencies scale without adding significant headcount. It allows agencies to quote on multiple lines with various carriers simultaneously, drastically reducing the time spent on manual quoting tasks. Changing the Game for Small Commercial and Personal Lines For small commercial and personal lines business, agencies often struggle with quoting efficiency. Colby shares how technology like IntelliAgent is solving this problem, making it easier for agencies to serve more clients without overwhelming their teams. Expanding to the ENS Market Refocus AI’s roadmap includes plans to expand into the ENS market, where underwriters are involved. By automating this process, Refocus AI will further streamline how agencies access bindable rates and service their clients, all while maintaining a high level of accuracy. Addressing Staff Burnout with Technology Colby shares the personal story of how working excessive hours led to burnout and a serious health condition. This experience fuels Refocus AI’s mission to help agencies reduce unnecessary workload and increase staff retention by allowing employees to focus on high-value tasks. Future Innovations: Know Your Customer & MGA Marketplace Colby gives a sneak peek into two new innovations coming soon. The Know Your Customer module will make updating account information faster and more efficient, while the MGA Marketplace will help agencies quickly find coverage for policy exclusions and better options for motor sports, flood, earthquake, and more.
