(5:50) Raghav explains how Tarmika can help create the ideal digital insurance workflow. (10:06) Raghav mentions the need to embed oneself in areas where consumers already trust the brand.

(39:34) Key Quotes: “You need to embed yourself into places where people already trust the brand.” - Raghav Tanna “Embedded insurance is a buzzword, and I wish there was a different word we can use. Because I think too many people say they can do it. It does not completely destroy the independent agency channel and it shouldn't. It makes people work harder and work differently to get small commercial business for their agency. I think that's the piece that we need to focus.” - Raghav Tanna “I think you need to make 30-40 touch points per customer to make sure they feel heard and feel wanted. Right? You have to do that. Because you have zero touchpoints when you sell them in a digital world.” - Raghav Tanna Resources Mentioned: Raghav Tanna LinkedIn Tarmika Reach out to Ryan Hanley Learn more about your ad choices.
