Agents have a few valid concerns about adopting AI.
- Client’s won’t talk to an AI
- Agents don’t want to learn new teach
- It may feel impersonal
I get it. I used to own an agency too.
But here’s the truth most people miss. AI isn’t replacing insurance agents. It’s replacing the mess around them so they can be more productive.
What Clients Actually Want
Clients want:
- Fast responses
- Clear answers
- Someone to action their requests quickly
They don’t care if the first touch is automated as long as the experience is smooth and helpful.
AI doesn’t sell the policy. It makes sure the opportunity isn’t lost.
What AI Should (and shouldn’t) Do
AI should:
- Answer calls when your team can’t
- Capture lead details instantly
- Send follow-ups consistently
- Help with FAQs
AI Should NOT:
- Replace licensed conversations
- Handle complex coverage discussions
- Remove the human relationship
When used correctly, it supports your agency instead of replacing it.
The Real Advantage
Agencies using AI:
- Respond quickly and instantly
- Never forget the follow-up
- Scale without hiring prematurely
Agencies ignoring it:
- Stay reactive
- Burn out staff
- Miss opportunities
- Get out paced and left behind
The gap is only getting wider.
