Vlad Cherchenko - Insurance Sales Lab

Trent Finley owns one of the fastest-growing agencies in Oklahoma.

In the last three years, he tripled his P&C production. In 2026, he’s on track to sell 3.5 million (his biggest year ever).

Here’s Trent’s story.

This week, our top producer ran a quoting bootcamp for our team. He's written over 100K in premium for the last 17 months.

When you have team members with a track record like that, agency owners can trust their team to train one another.

Our team left the bootcamp fired up (and... on the same page). 💥

If your team isn't on the same page with quoting, it's time to get there.

Scaling your agency depends on having repeatable processes.

How do your producers quote?

This week, we sat down with Daniel Cochran, a Farmers agency owner in Georgia.

After COVID, Daniel’s agency was hit hard by rate changes and underwriting restrictions.

His team couldn’t see a vision for the future… and neither could Daniel.

He lost most of his producers, and he had to step back into the producer role to keep his agency afloat.

After going through Insurance Sales Lab training, Daniel revamped his agency.

Fast forward to today, Daniel has three producers and his agency just had a record month, writing over $125,000 in P&C premium (without Daniel selling or servicing)

Here’s how he did it.
