Program promotes 'optimization'

DBH Consulting prepares to roll out 'First Order' program to bolster agency growth

ATLANTA—The stormy economy has many agencies and brokerages running for cover. They’re protecting what they have and hoping for blue skies ahead.
But some have fixed their sights on growth.

They see opportunity in prospective clients who are weathering the economic winds – companies with needs to fill, problems to solve, challenges to surmount. And the producers at these agencies see themselves as consultants providing solutions.

Sound like your agency? If not, you’ll want to learn more about “First Order,” a new DBH Consulting program that helps agency leaders grow their business by fine-tuning everything that influences the selling process.

Next summer, Demmie Hicks and VeNita Schnebele, both seasoned professionals in the industry, will share First Order with members of the Florida Association of Insurance Agencies (FAIA):

• June 18 at the FAIA Annual Convention in Orlando

• August 13 at the FAIA Management Planning Session, held at the Marriott on Marco Island.
