Interview with Joey Bouchard: The Insurance Industry Needed a ‘Human+’ Model

Описание: In this episode of Mighty Finsights, host Rory Holland sits down with Joey Bouchard, Founder and CEO of QuoteWell, to discuss the modernization of the wholesale insurance industry. Joey shares his journey from the high-stakes environment of Palantir to solving the Gordian Knot of insurance quoting. They explore the "Human Plus" model—a philosophy that uses technology to empower brokers rather than replace them.

You'll learn:
Why growth sometimes requires setbacks
How dating in New York City is the best sales training
And why Quotewell had to pivot and focus harder on people to find success

Whether you're interested in insurtech innovation or tactical leadership advice like taking a beat, Joey’s perspective offers a masterclass in building trust through technology.
