A different hiring approach for the insurance industry

It’s getting harder to fill open postions in insurance. And there will be a lot more soon: 400,000 open positions by 2036 due to retirement alone. Meanwhile, turnover in the insurance industry is on the rise making it more critical than ever o be smart in your hiring.

Why do we need a new approach?

• 74% of employers say they hired the wrong person for the job
• 50% or more of a staff annual salary is spent to replace a bad hire
• 85% of applicants exaggerate on their resumes
• 10 million qualified workers are never considered

IA Valuations is an independent agency valuation and business consulting services company headquartered in Columbus, Ohio. Affiliated with the Ohio Insurance Agency Association and partnered with other state associations across the country, our mission is to provide valuation-based planning to help independent insurance agency owners realize and maximize their value.

What IA Valuations Provides
IA Valuations delivers more than just a number. Their customized valuation reports (typically 40 pages) provide actionable insights to help agency owners:

• Identify growth opportunities
• Maximize agency value
• Build long-term wealth
• Prepare for perpetuation or transition

In addition to valuations, they offer perpetuation planning, financial modeling, buy-sell advising, and other specialized consulting services.

Why IA Valuations Stands Out

• With over 350 completed valuations, the IA Valuations team combines deep industry expertise with a mission-driven approach. Each engagement is personal and collaborative, helping owners understand not only their value but also their potential.
• Access to a powerful data platform to analyze trends across independent agencies—providing even more insights for growth and benchmarking.
• Accessible for All Agency Sizes by making professional valuation services affordable and accessible

Know Your Agency’s Worth
Your agency is a major financial asset—treat it like one. IA Valuations believes every owner should have an annual valuation, just as you’d review your investment portfolio each year.

What’s Your Agency’s True Value?

If you’re an agency owner, your agency is likely your life’s work and your largest single asset. In order to best protect you, your agency and your agency’s future, it’s important to know your agency’s value.

Knowing the value, and more importantly, what drives the value of your agency, provides you with the information to build a plan for your agency today and into the future. Without a plan, your agency, your staff, your clients and all that you have worked hard to build is at risk.

Carey Wallace with Agency Focus will show you the value of your agency as a multiple of EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization), not a multiple of revenue. You’ll see why this holistic approach is important and how you can leverage this knowledge to plan for your agency and grow and compete in the changing insurance marketplace.
