Come join us for an education event followed by a Happy Hour! Rich Carrico, CIC, CAWC, President of Carrico Maldegen Insurance Agency will present "Solving the Puzzle: Easily Integrate Insurance into Your Financial Planning Process". Most of us have enough insurance knowledge, as they say, to make us dangerous. We know insurance is critical to the financial planning process, but do we really know enough to help our clients? How do we integrate this into our practice without having to become an insurance professional? This presentation will clearly explain how insurance supports the financial planning process, address the risks your clients are facing, and provide immediate solutions you can implement to solve the insurance dilemma.
