In the commercial insurance world, the path to success looks deceptively simple: bring in more accounts, build a bigger book of business, and your agency thrives. But here’s the truth that most producers don’t realize until it’s too late — chasing small accounts is a trap that leads to burnout, low profits, and stalled growth.

In fact, data shows that most producers don’t actually have a sales problem. They have a client selection and back-office workload problem. And this is exactly where Insurance Virtual Assistants can help agencies flip the game.

The Big Lie Producers Believe

Many producers are taught to believe that writing dozens of small accounts equals security

“If I lose one small account, it won’t hurt — I’ll just replace it.”

At first, it makes sense. But in reality, this thinking keeps producers chained to low-revenue accounts that consume time without moving the financial needle.

Let’s look at the math:

• Producer A writes 75 small accounts every year. In 3 years, that’s 225 clients generating a $300,000 book of business.
• Producer B writes just 5 larger accounts a year. In 3 years, that’s only 15 clients — but the same $300,000 book of business.

On paper, they look the same. But here’s the difference:

• Producer A is buried under 225 service-heavy clients, answering emails, managing renewals, and putting out fires.
• Producer B enjoys the freedom of just 15 high-value clients, with more time to prospect, grow, and enjoy life.

The numbers prove it: it takes 34 small accounts to equal the value of just one large account.

Why Producers Get Stuck

Most producers don’t fail because they can’t sell. They fail because they:

• Spend too much time on small, service-heavy accounts.
• Get trapped in “busywork” instead of revenue-generating activities.
• Lack the support to handle day-to-day administrative tasks.

Instead of building wealth, they end up managing a treadmill of low-value accounts.

A Smarter Growth Strategy for Insurance Agencies

Try this :

• A producer can replace 43 small accounts with just 1–2 larger accounts.
• To build a $1M book of business, you don’t need 2,000 small accounts. You need around 60 larger accounts.

But to achieve this, producers need time — time to prospect, build relationships, and present strategic solutions to high-value prospects.

That’s exactly what Virtual Nexgen’s Insurance VAs deliver:

• They take care of the service hell of small accounts.
• They keep your agency operations running smoothly.
• They empower your producers to shift focus from managing clients to winning clients.

Final Thoughts

Commercial insurance producers don’t fail because they lack talent or motivation. They fail because they:

• Chase too many small accounts.
• Get buried in back-office tasks.
• Never make the shift to high-value growth strategies.

By partnering with Virtual Nexgen Solutions, your agency can finally break free from this cycle. Our Insurance Virtual Assistants give your team the freedom to focus on landing larger accounts, scaling your book of business, and achieving long-term success.
