Before starting The Insurance Market with Don, Nick started his career as a customer service representative at a regional insurance carrier which helped him hone his excellent service skills. Within the same company, Nick was promoted to a quality analyst based off of his performance as a customer service rep. This role again added to his diverse service skills as he would critique colleagues on there service performance.
