Insurance Compliance and Onboarding Specialist

Evan focuses on the parts of insurance automation that get agencies in trouble if they're done carelessly — consent capture, STOP/HELP handling, CMS Medicare-marketing boundaries, and the disclosure language that has to sit inside an SMS or AI conversation. He also leads snapshot onboarding, so he sees exactly where agencies stumble in the first two weeks of going live. He writes clear, practical guidance for GHL agencies serving insurance clients and for insurance shops wanting a done-for-you setup that won't create a compliance headache later.
