Simple but powerful ways EVERY agent can and should use video to generate leads, boost retention!

No doubt, you’ve seen the explosion of video on your smartphone, computer – coming at you from platforms like Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube, etc. You may not have thought ‘how can I use video to grow my agency?’ But, you will be when you hear this conversation with Nicholas Ayers. Good news: he also gives answers. Detailed answers:

• The easiest way to get started delivering video to your marketplace. (It’s virtually no-cost. You probably already have the equipment…and you can set it up in less than a minute.)
• Why video is so important to your customers (think: ‘emotion’ and ‘connection) and the 3 simple kinds of video (so easy you can do most of this without any more training than what Nicholas provides in this podcast!)
• BONUS: precisely how Nicholas gets his customers to do more of the work AND enjoy doing it! (This should save you tens of thousands of dollars!)

Note from Michael: I’ve interviewed some very, very smart Thought Leaders and industry influencers lately. And, they’ve shared some very important ‘big ideas’ and ‘big trends.’ This time, I was fortunate to interview a very, very smart insurance agent…and we kept this conversation at the practical-tactical level. For those of you who want to know just ‘how it’s done’ in the real-world of running an agency, this is a conversation you’ll love. Nick was extremely generous with his wisdom and experience (he shares why at the end of the podcast). Nick qualifies as a Thought Leader in his own right. Leading from the field where agents work day in and day out.
