📌 Episode: Contingency Planning for Insurance – Strategic Agency Succession Tips
Is your insurance agency prepared for the unexpected? 😬
In this episode, Kelly Donahue-Piro shares why contingency and perpetuation planning is critical for long-term agency success. Many agencies operate without a “Plan B,” leaving them vulnerable in times of crisis or transition. Don’t let that be your agency!
✅ What you’ll learn in this episode:
🔹 Emergency Perpetuation:
– What happens if an agency owner becomes disabled or passes away
– Why key person insurance, agency valuation, and buy-sell agreements matter
– How to protect your agency and your family with the right legal and financial tools
🔹 Structured Perpetuation:
– Planning for retirement with intention, not guesswork
– Options for selling your agency (private equity, family, internal leaders)
– The value of staging your exit and getting a valuation every 3–5 years
💡 Kelly emphasizes that a well-structured perpetuation plan can increase your agency’s value and ensure a smoother transition—no matter the circumstance.
