So, our first step in the process is we will give you a fast and loose rate based on your geographic area, number of vehicles, and we will give you that indication rate right away right on the portal " - Dan Abrahamsen "I think like with anything in life or in insurance, what starts as super complex and foreign can quickly kind of peel back to something more manageable, you can get your hands around it." - Dan Abrahamsen "You never want to be giving off-the-cuff guidance, if you're not entirely sure yourself. I do think that the educational component, we're committed to it, we're here to kind of push some of this forward." - Dan Abrahamsen Resources Mentioned:  Dan Abrahamsen LinkedIn Cover Whale David Carothers James Jenkins Florida Risk Partners The Extra 2 Minutes
