Welcome back to The Insurance Dudes! In today’s episode, hosts Craig Pretzinger and Jason Feltman sit down with Tung Le, the unstoppable insurance entrepreneur behind a thriving Allstate agency in Houston, Texas. Tung gets real about his rollercoaster journey, starting from scratch in March 2020—just as the world shut down. From losing his first employees on day one, to hitting the phones himself, Tung shares how he bootstrapped his way through the uncertainty of COVID, faced painful early setbacks, and relentlessly built a powerhouse $12 million book of business in just a few years.

Listen in as Tung opens up about the tough lessons learned in hiring, building a resilient team, and outlasting the storms—literally and figuratively—of the Texas insurance market. He gets candid about separating service and sales teams, dialing in on valuable data and zip codes, and learning to adapt strategies as both the industry and his agency evolve. If you’ve ever wondered what it takes to grow an agency from zero to millions, especially through some of the most challenging years in recent memory, this episode is packed with practical insights, plenty of laughs, and straight-shooting advice you won't want to miss. Let’s jump in!

Welcome to another episode of The Insurance Dudes! In this episode, Jason and Craig sit down with Cassidy Arbeli—a powerhouse agency owner whose journey is as inspiring as it is unconventional. Raised by entrepreneurial parents and equipped with a natural flair for business, Cassidy shares how she transformed her insurance career from humble beginnings with a newborn in tow to a multi-business owner, coach, and advocate for women in the industry.

Cassidy opens up about the real challenges insurance agents face, from the gap in business education to the importance of building strong agency culture and the value of putting systems in place to gain real freedom. She talks candidly about what it was like to walk away from a successful captive agency to launch her own independent venture—and how that leap of faith led to even greater success and fulfillment.

Welcome to another episode of The Insurance Dudes! In this powerful conversation, hosts Jason Feltman and Craig Pretzinger sit down with Dan Kitajima to unpack a truly wild journey from building a $17 million captive insurance agency to making the bold leap into the independent world.

Dan shares the highs and lows of his experience—from signing a jaw-dropping $20,000/month office lease just before his carrier pulled the rug out by non-renewing $6 million in policies, to learning how to pivot, retain clients, and ultimately rebuild—this time with even greater focus, flexibility, and profitability. The trio dives into the nuances of switching from captive to independent, breaking down differences in closing ratios, broker fees, marketing strategies, and what it really takes to survive (and thrive) through massive industry disruption.
