ENTREPRENEUR INTERVIEW: Fighting Back From A Sacking Ryan Hanley is our guest today ready to be interviewed on the Steve Jobs inspired Join Up Dots podcast. He was first on the show back in May 2014 and on that show we talked about how he was full on busy With Insurance being just one thing on his resume, he was creating an online marketing production line, that was simply exploding on all platforms. Type in his name and you would find him actively participating as a blogger, public speaker, Podcaster, Internet marketer, published author and the list goes on. Weaving through all these different areas was the art of storytelling and creating content that sales. How The Dots Joined Up For Ryan Now it appears he joined up dots and when back to an environment that he knew better than most – small business insurance. He has created Rogue Risk that helps people get the insurance that they need and also explains why they need it too As he says “At Rogue Risk, one of our core values is “No Customer Left Behind.” No small business owner should be left to fend for themselves because their account is “hard to place” or their insurance premiums are “too small to be profitable.” We are NOT scared to put in the extra work necessary to find the insurance you need to protect your business. In truth, “No Customer Left Behind” is more than just a core value, it's the filter by which we make every decision in our business. We call this The Rogue Risk Way. So is this business the one that was always waiting for him, once he joined up his dots to the point that things made sense? And where would he mark himself against where he wants to be? Well let's bring onto the show to start joining up dots, as we discuss the words of Steve Jobs with the one and only master of Content Warfare Mr Ryan Hanley.

Episode Highlights: Ryan compares what it took to launch a podcast in 2011 to what it takes now. (3:38) Ryan mentions that speaking through the filters of what he has learned in the insurance industry helps him to catch a very wide audience outside of insurance while simultaneously speaking to the insurance industry. (6:15) Ryan discusses what an RSS feed is and how difficult it was to create things that people today take for granted. (8:08) Ryan believes that people's most valuable asset is attention and that what we focus on, determines who we become. (20:35) Ryan explains that the next step up from the unhireable entrepreneur is someone who can operate with an entrepreneurial spirit inside a bigger business, a family of organizations, or a network of partnerships. (29:01) Ryan mentions that one of the most exciting aspects of the insurance industry today is that it is gaining more business owners and fewer agency owners every day. (36:08) Ryan shares that being acquired by SIAA was the single finest business decision he has ever made, and that appointing Michael Blake as his CRO was the second-best business decision he has ever made. (38:45) Ryan mentions that one of the factors that contributed to part of his career success is that he takes little joy in personal success. (45:05) Ryan discusses what made him decide to be affiliated with SIAA. (53:44) Ryan explains why he prefers to think and act as a business owner rather than as an agency owner. (58:10) Key Quotes: “What I did was basically use a talk to a broader audience, but talk through the filters of what I was learning in the insurance industry. And that allowed me to capture a very broad audience beyond just insurance, but also speak to the insurance industry at the same time.” - Ryan Hanley “One of the most exciting things for me about the current state of the insurance industry is that we are adding more and more business owners and less and less agency owners every day.” - Ryan Hanley “You have to have an ego to be the best at something. But at the same time, you can't allow that ego to stop you from being the best because it can be both the superpower and kryptonite at the exact same time.” - Ryan Hanley

Episode Highlights: Ryan compares what it took to launch a podcast in 2011 to what it takes now. (3:38) Ryan mentions that speaking through the filters of what he has learned in the insurance industry helps him to catch a very wide audience outside of insurance while simultaneously speaking to the insurance industry. (6:15) Ryan discusses what an RSS feed is and how difficult it was to create things that people today take for granted. (8:08) Ryan believes that people's most valuable asset is attention and that what we focus on, determines who we become. (20:35) Ryan explains that the next step up from the unhireable entrepreneur is someone who can operate with an entrepreneurial spirit inside a bigger business, a family of organizations, or a network of partnerships. (29:01) Ryan mentions that one of the most exciting aspects of the insurance industry today is that it is gaining more business owners and fewer agency owners every day. (36:08) Ryan shares that being acquired by SIAA was the single finest business decision he has ever made, and that appointing Michael Blake as his CRO was the second-best business decision he has ever made. (38:45) Ryan mentions that one of the factors that contributed to part of his career success is that he takes little joy in personal success. (45:05) Ryan discusses what made him decide to be affiliated with SIAA. (53:44) Ryan explains why he prefers to think and act as a business owner rather than as an agency owner. (58:10) Key Quotes: “What I did was basically use a talk to a broader audience, but talk through the filters of what I was learning in the insurance industry. And that allowed me to capture a very broad audience beyond just insurance, but also speak to the insurance industry at the same time.” - Ryan Hanley “One of the most exciting things for me about the current state of the insurance industry is that we are adding more and more business owners and less and less agency owners every day.” - Ryan Hanley “You have to have an ego to be the best at something. But at the same time, you can't allow that ego to stop you from being the best because it can be both the superpower and kryptonite at the exact same time.” - Ryan Hanley

(18:03) Jeff explains that after seeing Applied Epic's demo, he became interested in the new feature that can run an AMS through the browser. (20:22) Ryan believes that understanding where the company goes without rating multiple carriers is the way to place business faster with the appropriate carrier. (24:33) Jeff explains that you need some AI and machine learning to be able to direct you to the proper company because companies are changing their prices and moving so quickly. (26:54) Jeff explains what it means to have a properly trained bot. (34:50) Jeff explains the difference between Robotic Process Automation and a Digital Virtual Assistant.

(50:42) Key Quotes: “You need some AI and machine learning to be able to direct you with the right company. Because companies are changing their rates and changing things.” - Jeff Roy “Why would you want to use a bot? Really, you want to replace anything that humans are doing that they don't need to do with technology. And a bot, once it's trained, can do it reliable every time.” - Jeff Roy “The bot is secure double factor authentication, you know, there's no way of getting it hacked in any different than our staff. So that's why it was important that we had the double factor authentication to get in, because I don't want to log into anything without that.” - Jeff Roy Resources Mentioned: Jeff Roy LinkedIn Excalibur Insurance Reach out to Ryan Hanley

As CEO of SIAA, Matt Masiello has responsibility for executive management of the largest alliance of independent insurance agencies in the United States and its related companies, providing leadership to senior executives of SIAA and Master Agencies across the country. His more than 28 years of experience at SIAA and SAN Group have instilled in him the skills, knowledge, and expertise to lead SIAA and SAN Group (SIAA's original and largest Master Agency operating across the Northeast). Matt has responsibility for the overall success of both companies, as well as providing strategic vision and leadership for their futures. SIAA has 48 master agencies covering all 50 states with 13% of all U.S. independent insurance agencies as members, which write over $10 billion in premium, making SIAA the largest national independent insurance agency partnering network. Matt is also the author of the book, Insurance Agency 4.0, available now. Highlights from the Show Matt has been in the independent agent channel for nearly 30 years, for his entire career SIAA started in 1995, and is a national alliance of independent agencies with 48 master agencies, and has three focus areas: Market access, which has become table stakes today Generating top line revenue for agencies beyond commission to help them thrive Agency development services to help agencies when starting up, through to the most mature agencies They also help carriers interact with and manage relationships with independent agents by providing scale and coordination to the carriers, as well So much of the economy is concentrated in small businesses, and that's true of agencies, too, where 70% of agencies are under $1.2m in revenue With all the talk over the years of threats to the independent agent channel, Matt is extremely excited about the prospects for the channel today Some of acquisition and consolidation at the upper end of the channel has helped to spark innovation and entrepreneurialism on the smaller end, including the starting up of new agencies He's lived through other threats that were supposed to end the channel, like banks moving into insurance in the 1990s or the internet in the early 2000s Today, there's a lot of talk about Embedded insurance, which is being talked about as putting agents out of business Matt sees Embedded taking some sales But he also sees a lot of situations where Embedded isn't designed to respond, like people with more complex needs, multiple policies across lots of products (Home, multiple Autos, Umbrella, Life, etc) Part of the way agents will survive is through being purposeful in the kind of customers they target, and ensuring they have the tools to serve those customers and offer them value That goes for the value agents offer to carriers, as well, including market access but also providing the advice, guidance and other valuable services that carriers need agents to do Some advise agents to pull back from spaces where direct or digital are too threatening, like personal auto, but Matt sees that being the wrong answer We talked about how US car makers pulled back from selling sedans, but consumers still buy them from other manufacturers – the US car companies just weren't making sedans people wanted to buy People are still buying personal insurance and need protection, so just be sure your offering meets their needs The key is not to go after the price-sensitive, monoline shopper, but look for the one who needs multiline protection and values advice, guidance and support You have to know your segment, but then recognize that its changing and has evolving needs, so you must interact with it differently The days of just quoting someone's auto policy are gone as 70-80% of people are starting their insurance journey online, so an agent needs to be digital to interact with those people, and then take them on the rest of the journey for the broader insurance needs they have rather than just thinking about the single policy SIAA acquired Ryan Hanley's Rogue Risk, bringing Ryan into the fold This is about having an incubation path for people who want more freedom but aren't yet ready to own their own agency yet It also gives SIAA a test bed or sandbox to try the new digital tools and processes or ways of working that could help the channel thrive Some of the startup insurtech carriers/MGAs may or may not be solving an insurance problem, but they've created something within their transaction or experience capabilities that traditional carriers haven't solved for, which is valuable for the industry The core challenge of the industry is that we're doing things based on the constraints of our processes, but the consumer doesn't care This isn't just about the end consumer, but agents, too – carriers need to think about the cost of doing business with that carrier as agents will avoid carriers who make their lives harder or more onerous Matt sees this as the greatest time to be an agent as he's ever seen It may look different from how it's looked in the past, but that's true of any period in time, and that's ok – as long as you're willing to embrace what's changing Now is the time to come out swinging, implementing digital capabilities and be on the offense in demonstrating the value your provide your customers and your community This episode is brought to you by Ascend (useascend.com/futureofinsurance) and by The Future of Insurance thought leadership series (future-of-insurance.com) from Bryan Falchuk.

Ryan Hanley is the founder and president of Rogue Risk, a one-of-a-kind national digital commercial brokerage, pioneering the "Human-optimized" independent agency methodology. Ryan produces The Ryan Hanley Show podcast, the largest independent agent-focused podcast in the world. Ryan is also the Amazon bestselling author of Content Warfare and has been an insurtech advisor and investor for more than 5 years. Highlights from the Show Ryan started in insurance as a producer at an agency almost 20 years ago Growing up, Ryan never had a clear vision of what he wanted from his career, and got into Insurance because his future-father-in-law offered him a job He realized early on that he was terrible at the traditional approach to sales, driving around, trying to talk to people for leads and business He realized digital was the key, so he shifted to using digital platforms to drive activity He left to join TrustedChoice.com to be their Chief Marketing Officer, and then do the same at Bold Penguin Due to a family emergency, he had to stop traveling, so he left Bold Penguin for a local business he lead for a short time before starting his own insurance agency, Rogue Risk Ryan has met thousands of people across the industry through his career, and saw this coalescence of attempts to disrupt the agency channel with enhancements to the value agents can provide, and that was the genesis of his business, Rogue Risk, which brings together both sides of the equation to support small businesses better Ryan found that many leaders can't deal with taking losses or having failures, while he sees them as a normal part of building something If you're unwilling to put something at risk, you will never capture what is really possible or meet the true needs out in the market Ryan says he's going to lose 50% of the time, but the wins will be much bigger, so it's worth it If you want innovation, then you have to be willing to take the lumps with it, like pricing that may move more than other players Carriers should think about how hard it is to work with them (whether for the insured or an agent), and the excuse is "because that's how it's done" Then you have new entrants like Coterie who you can close an account with in seven minutes on one call People often focus on nuances of the startups or their coverage that don't matter to the vast majority of risks, yet they hold these things up as valid reasons to dismiss newcomers who are doing things better/faster/more flexibly and missing the chance to learn from their example Ryan gives an example of The Hartford, who won't allow premium to be paid in the first year any way except in full and from a bank account; you can't use a credit card until year two; but most small businesses want to manage their expenses differently, want the points, want aggregated expense tracking, etc, so this doesn't fit their need; yet The Hartford says it's small business focused Then you have Coterie on the other side, who allows credit card payments from Day 1, so if you're quoting both carriers on a risk, and the price is the same, Coterie wins the account for the simple reason that they work the way that small business account prefers to work Increasingly, this is how small business is won, on the way we work more than the details and nuances on the margin Ryan gives advice to InsurTechs trying to sell into Insurance, and how much it is still so much about relationships (than Financial Services is), so knowing the right people can help shrink timelines This is because as an industry, we need to trust who we're working with and that they will be here for the long haul, like the carriers will be Ideas come and go, and that's ok, but they need to know that the people will stand up if something happens so they can trust that things will be ok in the end While he hopes we speed up, he hopes we don't change caring about the long term because that's what lets us stay able to be there for people in the worst moments, like major hurricanes Rogue is a digital agent, but also knows that many situations require a phone call, so pure digital paths will inherently mean some people can't find coverage with you; Ryan started the agency with a concept of No Customer Left Behind, which means he leans on digital, STP solutions as well as being able to pickup the phone and talk to an insured in a hybrid approach Ryan sees a future that will still include local agents because there is a local need for advisors, but it will be supported by new technology that can make the economics of a small agency better than they are today, making them more sustainable However, those local agents won't look like they did forty years ago, where you could open a shop and walk the streets to drum up business Digital agents can drop a pin in your area and scoop up business in a way that never existed before, so the model will be different for local shops Launching Rogue three days before COVID lock downs changed how they built things Rogue's model is to incubate producer's futures by letting them build their own business to eventually spin off This is different from being a producer at a large shop where you can be a star, but never ultimately own your book COVID forced them to pivot to in-bound rather than the outbound model he envisioned, but now they've been able to go back to the incubator idea he originally had So many people talk about wanting to grow, but are really ok with low single-digit growth; if you really want to grow, you have to be willing to make investments in your business This episode is brought to you by Ascend (useascend.com).
