## Resource

The insurance industry teaches you that relationships wins business. They're wrong. Relationships matter—but they aren't enough. In this episode, Nick and Daryl explain why prospects who "love their broker" still take meetings, request quotes, and ultimately sign Broker of Record letters. You'll learn: Why strategy beats relationships Why clients can't answer whether they're getting the best deal How to win business from family members, friends, and long-time brokers Why underwriters give better pricing when they believe they can actually win How to stop competing on personality and start competing on strategy If you've ever heard, "I love my broker, but..." this episode explains what those prospects are really trying to tell you. BOR or Bust, baby.
