On this episode of Agency Nation Radio, Jessica Mulder, operations manager of Perspective Insurance in Sioux Center, Iowa, reflects on how she played a role in the purchase of three agencies in one year. Get a candid take on the challenges and opportunities that come with purchasing an agency, as well as her thoughts on two issues that are on the minds of every agency owner: staffing and technology. 

“Every purchase was a little bit different, each one had its pros and its cons,” Mulder says. “Going into each one of them, you had to have an open mindset and know that there were going to be setbacks and that there were going to be things that would go smoother than you anticipate.”
