Kickin' Butt & Takin' Names with Chris Cleveland - Part 1
On this episode of Adjuster Talk, I’m joined – once again – by the independent adjuster and master of networking, Chris Cleveland. Today, we discuss the hard lessons we have learned throughout our careers as independent property insurance adjusters and the importance of building and maintaining your network to grow your business and increase your revenue.
Chris shares his insight and tips on how to maintain communication throughout a claim and why it’s so important. He also explains why it’s critical for new adjusters to conduct their own research instead of relying on groups and message boards online to ask basic questions as well as how to avoid burning out early in your career.
