From Ross Diedrich
A recent study by the insurance institute came out and said there has been a 20 percent decrease year over year in customers who want to use a local agent. It’s about 52 percent of consumers actually buy insurance because of a relationship and that trend is looking like it will be closer to 30 percent over the next couple of years.
