  • How Do You Keep Clients When Anyone Can Undercut Your Price?
    Oct 23 2026

    Free Retention Made Simple Workbook https://retentionmadesimple.com/workbook


    What makes someone stay with the same insurance agent for years when a cheaper quote is always one click away? In this episode, SAM sits down with Ron Marchiani, a Farmers agent with a rare background: former general contractor, longtime claims adjuster, and now an agent who uses all of it to protect his clients. SAM and Ron met at a camping show (cowboy hat meets purple hat), and their conversation is a masterclass in relationship-first business: being available when it matters, reviewing a policy before it is due, and sometimes telling someone not to file a claim at all. If you want clients who stay and refer, this one is full of ideas you can borrow no matter what you sell.


    What you’ll learn

    *Why “before, during, and after the sale” is the whole retention game

    *How being genuinely available (nights, weekends, real phone number) builds trust nothing else can

    *The proactive move most agents skip: review the policy before it comes due

    *Why sometimes the most loyal-making thing you can do is tell a client not to buy or file

    *How a rocky start can turn into a six-year client who refers you

    SAM’s 3-part Retention Made Simple system: onboarding, appropriate appreciation, actionable feedback

    *Why asking for feedback early signals that you truly want to know

  • What Can a French Teacher Teach You About Client Retention?
    Oct 9 2026

    Free Retention Made Simple Workbook https://retentionmadesimple.com/workbook


    Retention starts long before anyone thinks about leaving. In this episode, SAM talks with Isabelle Cate, a French-born former teacher turned wellness educator, about the quiet habits that keep customers for years. The two met when they were the only people to show up to a networking event (even the hosts did not come), and that friendly-face moment set the tone for a conversation all about human connection. Isabelle shares her experience-first onboarding, her virtual unboxing ritual, and why staying in constant contact turns customers into friends. Warm, practical, and a great reminder that people stay where they feel genuinely cared for.
