How Are You Different from an Aggregator/Cluster?

Unlike traditional aggregators or clusters, Goosehead Insurance operates on a unique franchise model that provides:

  • Exclusive carrier access: Franchisees benefit from direct relationships with top-rated insurance carriers, allowing them to offer competitive pricing and coverage.
  • Technology-driven sales and service: A proprietary tech platform streamlines quoting, policy management, and client interactions for ease of use.
  • Brand reputation and national marketing: Goosehead provides a well-established brand, reducing the need for franchisees to build recognition from scratch.
  • Comprehensive training and support: Unlike aggregators mainly providing market access, Goosehead offers ongoing mentorship, sales coaching, and operational guidance.

Why Do Lenders and Realtors Choose to Work with Goosehead Agents?

Goosehead Insurance has developed a strong reputation among mortgage lenders and real estate professionals due to:

  • Fast and efficient quoting: The proprietary platform allows for quick turnaround times, helping clients secure policies needed for home closings.
  • Wide carrier selection: Agents can shop across multiple insurance carriers, ensuring clients receive the best coverage at competitive rates.
  • Consistent communication and service: Dedicated service teams provide a seamless experience, making the process hassle-free for referral partners.
  • Trust and reliability: Goosehead’s track record of high-quality service fosters strong, lasting referral relationships.

Do Clients Who Go Online Get Sent to Me or a Corporate Agent?

Goosehead’s online platform is designed to connect clients with the right insurance professionals based on their needs. The distribution of leads depends on various factors:

  • If a client is associated with a franchisee’s referral partner, they are typically routed to that franchisee. Clients can also connect with an agent from the agent’s website.
  • Clients can also be routed to an agent directly via the agent’s unique QR code.
  • Otherwise, leads may be directed to a corporate agent or the nearest available franchisee.
  • Franchisees actively engaging in digital marketing (e.g., social media) may capture more online leads through personalized strategies.

Do I Have Visibility into How the Service Team Interacts with My Clients?

Franchisees have full transparency into client interactions handled by Goosehead’s service team. Through the company’s technology platform, franchisees can:

  • Monitor service requests and resolutions in real-time.
  • Access detailed communication logs to stay informed about client interactions.
  • Maintain strong relationships with customers by proactively following up and meeting client expectations
