Chris Burand is an active consultant in the independent insurance industry specializing in financial analysis, sales, and marketing. Chris writes a well-respected column in the “Insurance Journal,” and I find his writing to be entertaining, informative and thought provoking. I frequently find myself quoting him to agents, or groups of agents, with whom I speak and work.
In a recent column, Chris has written one of the best defenses as well as criticisms of independent insurance agents! Without attempting to summarize his writing here, I would just like to suggest that you read it. If you’re not a subscriber, simply go to www.insurancejournal.com and select the April 3, 2017 issue.
