  • How to Fix Your Insurance Retention ... and Grow | Episode 93
    Oct 7 2025

    Send us a text

    Sometimes in business, no matter what field you're in, sales is treated purely as a numbers game. For example, someone may say there are 3 rules in sales: sell, sell, sell. But as much as that's true, and needing to sell is what keeps the lights on, retention is equally (if not more) important than selling. Don't just find another deal, take care of the people you already have. Sean & Tim use an insurance example to break down their own successes and failures in business. Tune in for the jokes, stay for the advice and tips!

    Our goal with Bricks & Risk is that you walk away with 1 or 2 valuable nuggets that can help build your own business. Our audience grows through word of mouth, so if you would please take a moment of your time and give us a review on the platform you’re on, that would be fantastic!

    Please also help spread the B&R word by sharing your favorite episode with a friend. You can find all B&R episodes on Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, and anywhere else you get your podcast content. We greatly appreciate your time and trust.

    Until next week, keep learning and keep growing!

    Sep 30 2025

    Send us a text

    Although Justin Heath has been at the residential real estate game for just shy of a decade, he has a lifetime worth of real-estate-blood coursing through his veins; through both his Mom & Dad. From pushing through competitiveness as a kid, when he realized he may not be the most athletic, to experiencing a corporate job dead-end while selling in Milwaukee during winter, Justin has amazing perspective for any Realtor or small business entrepreneur on what it takes to succeed. Dive head first into this "guestie" ep with Vik Vaughn (aka Sean) & Tim!

    The Realtor ... what? Mmm hmm, Tim made that term up; haha. But, for those of you in residential real estate, this is a very real thing. Experiencing the "Realtor Joneses" happens when another real estate agent, leader, or coach starts comparing you to another agent with the intention of making your business bigger, faster, or just more efficient. Dive right into this one as Sean & Tim define the Realtor Joneses and tips on how to avoid falling into this very common comparison trap!
