Hire Data Analyst for Insurance Agencies
Senior, direct, no layers
Practical data analyst help for insurance agencies: policy servicing, renewals, and new-business follow-up done properly, on the systems you already run.
A senior data analyst for insurance agencies
An insurance agency lives or dies on follow-up. Quotes go out, renewals come due, endorsements pile up, and every one of those moments is a chance to keep a client or lose one to a competitor who called back first. Most agencies know this, yet the work still runs on memory, spreadsheets, and inboxes, because the agency management system was set up years ago and nobody has owned it since.
That gap shows up in very specific places: renewal lists worked too late, cross-sell opportunities nobody noticed, certificates and documents chased by email, and producers spending their day on admin instead of conversations. The agency does not need more software. It needs someone who can make the systems it already pays for do the follow-up work, and build the missing pieces around them without breaking how producers actually work.
A data analyst turns the policy, claims, and client records sitting in Applied Epic, Vertafore AMS360, and your CRM into decisions: which parts of policy servicing, renewals, and new-business follow-up leak value, where effort pays, and what to fix next, reported in numbers your team can act on. The engagement is senior-only and direct: you work with Omer, the scope is agreed before build, and the work is judged on what changes in policy servicing, renewals, and new-business follow-up — not on hours logged or deliverables counted. Book a free discovery call and we will test the fit before any scope is agreed.
What this engagement covers for insurance agencies
- Reporting that replaces spreadsheets — Live dashboards for policy servicing, renewals, and new-business follow-up, built on system data instead of weekly manual exports.
- Funnel and leakage analysis — Where prospects or customers drop out of policy servicing, renewals, and new-business follow-up, quantified step by step so fixes target the biggest leak.
- Cohort and retention analysis — Which groups stay, which leave, and what early behaviour predicts either outcome.
- Data quality audits — Finding the duplicate, missing, and mislabelled records that make every report suspect.
- Forecasting and targets — Simple, explainable forecasts for pipeline, renewals, or volume, with the assumptions stated.
- Self-serve reporting setup — Dashboards and definitions your team can use without asking an analyst for every question.
Built for the stack you already pay for
Agencies in this market typically run on an agency management system such as Applied Epic or Vertafore AMS360, with EZLynx for comparative rating, plus a CRM or marketing tool such as Salesforce, HubSpot, or AgencyZoom for follow-up. Documents move through DocuSign, phones through RingCentral or a similar VoIP system, and carrier downloads arrive through IVANS. Any new build has to respect that stack: it reads from the management system where possible, writes back cleanly, and never creates a second, conflicting copy of client data.
Analysis here is built on your real stack — Applied Epic, Vertafore AMS360, your CRM, and analytics tools such as Segment, Mixpanel, or your BI tool — with data definitions written down so two reports never disagree.
That discipline matters because the failure mode of outside help is usually a new tool nobody maintains. Work that lives inside Applied Epic and your CRM survives the engagement; work that lives in a separate spreadsheet or dashboard dies the week the engagement ends. Every build here is therefore judged on whether your team can run it afterwards without the person who built it.
From kickoff to delivery for insurance agencies
- Define the decisions
Agree the three or four decisions the reporting must support before any dashboard is built.
- Audit the data
Check Applied Epic, Vertafore AMS360, and CRM data for completeness and consistency.
- Build the core dashboards
Ship the essential views first, with definitions documented.
- Review and act monthly
A standing review where the numbers drive the next fixes.
What success looks like, honestly
For an agency, a realistic outcome is not a vague promise of growth. It is renewals worked on time, quotes followed up within a day, documents collected without chasing, and producers spending more of their week on conversations that close. Those are the results worth measuring, and they are measured in the agency's own numbers: renewal retention, quote-to-bind time, and hours returned to producers each week.
- Outcome 1 — One trusted set of numbers for policy servicing, renewals, and new-business follow-up, with definitions everyone can check.
- Outcome 2 — The biggest leaks in the funnel identified and quantified, so fixes are prioritised by value.
- Outcome 3 — Dashboards your team actually opens, because they answer decisions instead of displaying data.
No prices, guarantees, or client results are promised on this page, because the honest answer depends on your starting point: the state of your systems, the quality of your data, and how much of policy servicing, renewals, and new-business follow-up is actually broken today. The discovery conversation exists to establish that baseline before any commitment is made.

- Built on your stack: Applied Epic, Vertafore AMS360, and your CRM — not a parallel tool nobody maintains.
- Measured on outcomes: Success is judged on policy servicing, renewals, and new-business follow-up improving in your own numbers, not on activity delivered.
- No lock-in theatre: Your systems, data, and documentation are handed over in full, so you are never held hostage by one engagement.
