Hey! Hey! Randy Crisorio here to put an exclamation point on Agent Summit V. By all measures a tremendous success that delivered outstanding industry information to registrants approaching 900, at the fabulous Venetian Palazzo property.

Many thanks to those who organized, sponsored, took to the stage and of course everyone in the audience. Max effort by all as the Summit has grown by leaps and bounds. A special shout out to our featured speakers: Petrowski, Feldman, Atkinson, St. John, Reahard and Maxim Jr. And the follow up by moderators and panelists to the target topics was spot on! On Wednesday morning the Principal Only Roundtable topics were heavily crunched with some excellent solutions brought forward, so this session really needs to become a bigger slice of the Summit in the future.

Nonetheless, many thanks to the table captains and those who stayed on to participate, despite some of the crazy weather reports from around the country. For those who could not stay I would like to give you a taste of the roundtable topics we covered:

• Managing a Remote Field Force

• Staffing Up Your Agency

• Compliance

• Team Theme

• Dealer Expectations

• Service Drive Product Sales

• Competition

• Agent/Partner Relationships

• Training Attendance

Finally, hats off to the board for putting together some spectacular content all around and bringing in the rocket ship that transported George Dans to our event. Perhaps between now and the next Summit we can find out what energy drink he consumes and we’ll all get some.

Until we meet again – Have a great year and Thank You!

We’ll see you at the next Summit!
