For independent insurance agencies · DFW
Lead follow-up that answers in minutes, not on Monday.
Your producers are excellent on the phone. Your website form is where commercial accounts go quiet. We build the plumbing that connects the two, for independent agencies across Dallas and Fort Worth.
01 · The front door moved
The buyer starts at your website now
Commercial buyers changed how they shop before most agencies changed how they answer. In McKinsey's 2016 research on small commercial insurance, 70 percent of buyers started their shopping through a channel other than an agent, usually a website, while 82 percent still ultimately bound coverage through an agent. The relationship still closes the account. The website form now opens it.
That form is usually wired to an inbox nobody is assigned to watch. A quote request that arrives Friday evening sits until Monday coffee. By then the buyer has heard from somebody else, because nobody shopping commercial coverage asks only one agency, and the first useful human response usually wins.
This is not a people problem. The same agencies that let forms sit for days return voicemails in minutes, because a voicemail rings a phone that somebody owns. The difference is wiring, and wiring can be fixed.
02 · Measured in this market
We ran the test on 34 DFW agencies
In August 2026 we sent a real commercial inquiry (a business owner's policy, professional liability, and cyber) to 34 independent agencies across Dallas and Fort Worth, then timed every response against a dedicated inbox and phone number. The full method and results are published.

03 · The fix, at mechanism level
What a connected front door looks like
Four pieces of plumbing, built around how your agency already works. Nothing here replaces a producer; it gets the buyer to one before your competition does.
Missed calls get a text in seconds
A caller who hits voicemail gets an immediate text from your agency's number, so the conversation starts before they dial the next agency on the list.
Form fills ring a person
Quote requests stop being emails. They become alerts that reach a producer's phone with the buyer's details attached, nights and weekends included.
Follow-up that does not forget
A sequence keeps the quote alive with reminders, texts, and emails until a human closes the loop. Nothing depends on somebody remembering.
A monthly count you can read
How many inquiries came in, how fast a human touched each one, and which ones went quiet. One page, every month, in plain English.
04 · Working together
How an engagement works
It starts with a free 30-minute digital systems audit. We look at your inquiry flow the way a real buyer experiences it: the form, the phone, the after-hours gap, and show you exactly where it leaks.
Engagements are scoped to your business after the audit. No packages and no surprise line items: you see the full cost before anything gets built, and you work directly with the person who builds it.
