MCP071: Behind the Scenes of Public Adjusting w/ Ron Snouffer

🎙️ You're in for a treat with today's #MeetCoolPeople episode. I had the pleasure of chatting with Ron Snouffer, owner of National Claims Negotiators, a leader in insurance claims consulting services. If you've ever tangled with your insurance company over a claim, you know how much of a headache that can be. 

Well, Ron's your go-to in this industry!

This interview ended up being like two interviews in one…

Ron shared his unique journey, from working with insurance companies to becoming a public adjuster. It all started when he noticed how the insurance business wasn't always about the clients. That realization led him to switch sides and become a fierce advocate for homeowners and property owners, especially during devastating natural events.

In our conversation, Ron brought to light some vital nuggets for property owners and those in the entrepreneurial world. His insights into claims adjusting were eye-opening for me and I asked him to share some key points to help us all be better prepared in our lives in case there’s a disaster. 

Then, we went in a different direction and talked about entrepreneurship, where I picked his brain on the things that can help entrepreneurs thrive in today’s economy. He shared a few great nuggets about the importance of knowledge, preparation, and strategic growth.

🎯 Our Great mix Of Key Takeaways (both related to insurance & entrepreneurship):

• Know Your Policy (insurance): Understanding what's in your insurance policy is crucial. Ron highlighted the importance of knowing your deductibles and how they could change depending on events like wind or hail.
• Document Everything (insurance): Use your smartphone to take pictures and videos of your property inside and out. This simple act can save you tons of headaches when verifying damages with insurance companies.
• Adaptation is Key (entrepreneurship): Ron emphasized learning and adapting to changes within your industry. As the world evolves, you’ve got to keep your finger on the pulse of the industry or you’ll risk being left behind.
• Business Growth (entrepreneurship): For entrepreneurs, especially new ones, Ron stressed the importance of systems and processes. Get those in place early o,n and it will help you scale much faster and with less stress.
• Help and Collaboration (entrepreneurship): the power of collaboration and learning from others will get you where you want to go much faster than trying to go it alone. Joining associations or mentorship programs can provide valuable guidance.
