The Insurance Dudes©
The Insurance Dudes is a weekly podcast for independent and captive P&C insurance agency owners, hosted by Craig Pretzinger and Jason Feltman, covering lead generation, sales scripts, DISC-based hiring, producer training, recruiting, automation, and the KPI tracking that scales an agency past $10 million in premium.
Craig and Jason ran their own agencies blind for years. No read on contact rates, quote rates, or close rates. Just grinding, and blaming the leads when production stalled. Then they started tracking the numbers that actually move revenue, and production jumped without adding a single hour to the week.
That shift became this show: 800+ episodes on what actually runs an agency. Real-time vs aged lead economics, how many dials a day a producer should be making, scripts for the rate-increase objection, how to leave a captive carrier and go independent, how to run an agency on a 4-day week, and how to value and sell an agency when you're ready to exit. No theory, no motivational filler. Just the math and the systems that took two agencies to over $10 million in new annualized auto premium.
If you're wearing every hat in your agency and ready to stop, this show is built for you.
Website: theidudes.com Built from the show: TeleDudes for outsourced overseas dialers, TeamIQ for DISC-based hiring, LineShield for phone reputation, and Insurance Agency Trader for buying or selling an agency.

I have a new question if u don't mind! I'm 25 years old I have 1 year of insurance under my belt and I am licensed in property and casualty, I want to move to Philly and get an insurance job either there or online, I'm looking for something around 75-100k per year, I am definitely good at my job and can sell... where do I start?!
When you say between 8-24 dials do you mean calling the same lead that many times and if so is that simply with numbers that aren't answering or are you repeatedly calling the same numbers
I am proposing a commission only, part time position to my agency owner this week. My leads are mine, organic referrals within my community - personal and commercial P&C (not licensed in life just yet. Can you please help me with an appropriate/reasonable proposal and comp plan? I’m with Allstate, if that helps. Loving your podcast!!
