Running a successful insurance brokerage is no small feat. It requires grit, vision, and the ability to build trust day after day. But even the most resilient entrepreneurs face a crucial question: What happens to your business when it’s time to step away?
That’s where succession planning enters the picture and why partnering with FernRock Risk Partners can be a game-changer.
