Insurance CRM Stories: How Agencies Actually Run — the series

A story-first video series about running an insurance agency — the operational problems first, the software second. Faceless by design: the agency is the setting, the problem is the villain, and every product screen you see is our real platform on demo data.

Episode 1 — I Was Paying for Too Many Tools to Run My Insurance Agency (5:38)
The client question that took five tabs to answer, why every tool can be fine while the agency still bleeds time, and the ten-minute fragmentation-score exercise.
