- Identify coverage gaps and alternative solutions
- Track quotes, declinations, outstanding information, and market responses
- Provide producers with market feedback and placement recommendations
- Assist producers with proposals for key accounts and prospects
- Stay current on carrier appetites, underwriting changes, products, and market conditions
