In this episode of Agency Ascend, hosts Chris and Jessica sit down with Wes Spencer, co-owner of Spencer Insurance DFW, for a masterclass in agency growth and strategic decision-making.
Wes shares how he and his brother navigated the transition from a captive agency to full independence—one of only eight agencies nationwide to take advantage of Nationwide’s Partner Choice buyout. He explains how they built a thriving, referral-driven business by prioritizing relationships, client education, and niche commercial markets. Wes also dives into the role of faith and stewardship in leadership, and why long-term thinking beats chasing short-term margins.
This is Part 2 of our conversations with Spencer Insurance DFW. See our previous episode with his brother, James Spencer.
