In this episode of Agency Ascend, we sit down with Austin Jordan, a Regional Sales Manager with AmTrust Financial Services in the DFW area who shares his career journey, lessons from the field, and practical advice for agencies transitioning into commercial insurance.
He talks about the importance of mentorship, building trust through service, and how agencies often solve problems clients don’t even know they have. More than just tactical advice, Austin opens up about what drives him: legacy, family, and purpose-driven leadership. This conversation is packed with insight for producers, agency owners, and anyone looking to grow with intention.
