Tech leader declares ‘you can’t replace the broker, but you can empower them’ When Mike Furlong was just an insurance customer, it hurt. Getting commercial insurance wasn’t just hard, it was unpleasant. Having already found success in hedge fund technology, he knew there must be a better way.  The better way isn’t without agents or brokers. It’s without the headache… for the customer or the agent. Mike’s solution—Indio Technologies—is now trusted by thousands of agencies and brokerages throughout North America, is being used in 30 of the top 100 US agencies today, and it’s attracted $30 million in funding. Mike shares how he sees the fast-moving insurance industry changing: How commercial agents can thrive by doing less of the manual-labor and drudgery they’ve been enduring for decades (with more time talking to clients) The unique role that ONLY an agent can play – and how emerging technologies can make agents and brokers better A glimpse into what the future of the commercial broker looks like, and how to get there ahead of the competition If you have time for one conversation about the future of commercial insurance (and insurance in general) please do not miss this conversation with one of the industry’s foremost agents of change.  What are other agents & brokers doing to thrive? What are the biggest trends affecting the retail insurance agent & broker? What are the most important strategies and tactics you need to grow faster? Find out here in the Connected Insurance Podcast, where our hosts discuss the biggest issues affecting the independent insurance agent & broker with the industry’s leading figures.

Starts by finding a way to disrupt ineffective processes and reduce as many redundancies as possible. If you can do that, you'll have provided your clients with an application experience they'll never want to come back from. Because it's the annual redundancies and unnecessary information that ultimately take a toll on your their patience. No matter what, the more streamlined you try to make it, the better chance you'll have along the way. That's what I talk to Mike Furlong, of Indio, about how he's helping every agent make that process a reality. Make sure to Connect With Mike: Indio LinkedIn

Recently I had to complete an application for Errors and Omissions Insurance (E&O) for my startup. Unfortunately for me, the application required me to download, print, complete, sign, scan and email back to the broker. I then had to re-answer several questions by email. A very inefficient process and one fraught with potential errors for insurance agents. Mike Furlong aims to fix this. In this episode of Profiles in Risk, I interviewed Mike Furlong of Indio Technologies and we discussed his anti-Sisyphean quest to help agents break their dependence on paper applications and other unstructured data.
