I'm far from the stereotypical insurance agent but it is where I have found myself in life and I'm having loads of fun with it. Independent agents are the consumers best option for insurance products and I fear the future of the independent channel. That is a lot of the reason why I have taken such an off the wall approach. And kudos to you for what you are doing in social media for Oakland Cemetery! Chad, thank you for the kind words.

Social Media definitely works for business, but the real ROI is people and you can't really place a metric on that. Your support is awesome and I'm grateful. Hopefully we'll meet up at an event soon!

But enough about me... your work on the DADvocate project is pure awesome, and like I've said before if you need anymore insight from me or help in any way on that project please don't hesitate to call. Same for MetzgerBusiness. I appreciate that we've been able to connect. Kevin, I'm glad I could be of assistance for you and your family.

I've taken your suggestions to heart and have already applied some of what you shared with me. My approach certainly isn't for everyone, but I'm passionate about trying to inject some forward thinking into such a traditional industry. Some of my stuff is over the top - but I think someone in the industry has to stick their neck out. Especially online - there is a huge problem with the digital marketplace for insurance... meh, I could spend an hour or more typing a response. Bottom line is, thank you for your insight and feedback. Justin, Thank you and thank you for your email. I've taken your suggestions to heart and have already applied some of what you shared with me.

So much in fact that we are meeting this weekend so I can switch my life insurance. Not only is Chris entertaining but he is saving my $40/month and providing an additional $250,000. Additionally he didn't pull any of the traditional Insurance Salesman stuff that you so often find. James,

You and Chris are both doing great work in this medium. Both of you are also working with what others would have considered un-workable. Bravo again to each of you!
