And I love sharing game plans and tips, and best practices, and things. It'll just make it a little bit easier for agents to make a bigger impact in their world, in their agencies.” - Katlyn Eggar Resources Mentioned: Agency Intelligence We Got Your Podcast Reach out to Jason Cass Katlyn Eggar LinkedIn Quantum Assurance International Advertisers: Tarmika ePayPolicy
