The pipeline looks full on the 1st , then collapses by the 15th.
The situation this course is for
Every month starts strong: targets look achievable, agency submissions are flowing. But by mid-month, the funnel empties , deals stall, underwriting feedback loops stretch, and commercial clients delay decisions. You're left scrambling to refill the pipeline before quarter-end, sacrificing margin for velocity. This isn't a motivation problem , it's a structural gap in how pipeline hygiene is maintained day-to-day.
Who this is for
Commercial sales leader in a large insurer managing agency-driven pipelines under renewal and efficiency pressure
Who this is not for
Individual contributors not managing agency teams, or leaders focused only on retail or personal lines
What you walk away with
- Identify the 3 structural leaks causing mid-month pipeline collapse
- Implement a weekly rhythm that surfaces stalled deals before they disappear
- Deploy a lightweight agency feedback loop that closes information gaps
- Align underwriting touchpoints with sales milestones to prevent handoff delays
- Build a self-correcting pipeline dashboard that flags risk before the 10th
