I recently joined the Insurance Perspectives Podcast with Kenny Hendricks of HawkSoft and guest Nicole Johns, an insurance advisor with The Johns Family Agency. We covered how to best use Canopy Connect to level up your insurance game, and the details on our latest integration with HawkSoft.

What does Canopy Connect do?

Canopy Connect is an insurance data intake platform that allows agencies to quickly pull information like policy details, claims history, and renewal documents from a prospect's account.

The prospect signs in through a link and their data is shared with the agency's dashboard in seconds. This saves agencies from manual data entry and gives them a full picture to provide better advice and quotes. Our company was founded to help remove common friction points in the insurance process.

Importance of Trust

Trust and security are core values for Canopy Connect. We don't access or sell customer data—our solution operates purely as a connector between prospects and agencies. Our product gives consumers more control over their data sharing while guaranteeing the information agents get is verified and up-to-date.

Challenges of Working with Insurance Agents

Many agents are afraid to adopt new technology or invest in business growth. However, it's important to calculate the return on investment (ROI and potential efficiency gains. I like to focus on, "What if it does work?" rather than focusing on the concerns.

Benefits of Working with Insurance Agents

I enjoy listening to success stories from agents using Canopy Connect. A fellow marketing aficionado, I also like hearing how agents discover Canopy Connect through our customers' marketing efforts, whether it's through an email link or social post.
