SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST PART II – OUTLASTING 2020
We can now look back at 2020 as an unbelievable time. If you are reading this, you are likely hanging on to your insurance career. And why not? How much more exciting can one industry get than insurance was in 2020? Or maybe the word you call it was not exciting… No suggestions here or this article could get spammed out.
The pandemic was one of many issues we had to deal with in 2020. We had wildfires in California and throughout the west. There were tornadoes taking out entire crops in the Midwest. The hurricane season seemed to go on forever. To say nothing of the riots in many major cities. What is an insurance broker to do?
As we look back, we should be proud we are still standing and hopefully we’re able to take care of our clients to get them through this rough year. Looking forward, there are going to be new avenues of insurance that we as an industry will need to come up with in our forever changed world. We at PPIB are on the lookout for these opportunities and are here to help you if you would like to design something with us. Let’s see this crazy year as an opportunity and not something to depress us. And let’s toast ourselves for surviving these unique times!
