    The Dark Side of Insurance Sales: When Quick Profits Trump Long-Term Relationships

    Discover how the insurance industry's shift towards "churn and burn" practices is transforming agent-client relationships. In this eye-opening episode, Adam and Chris dive deep into the concerning trend of prioritizing high upfront commissions over sustainable renewal rates, dropping from historic highs of 12-13% to as low as 0-1%.
