“I’ve had a really good time on the independent side,” says independent agent Vianey Butterfield. “I’m not a fan of being in a box or being constricted and the word captive is synonymous with that.”

When well-conceived and well-executed, a succession plan will allow you to enjoy retirement while leaving your business and clients in good hands.
