Who it’s for

Strategy first,
then the ads.

For mid-size mutuals, independent brokerages, MGAs and program administrators, and specialty insurers across Canada.

Pick your kind of business

You want to grow and keep your customers, and you work through agents and brokers. Chris leans on local search, accurate listings, a clear website and search ads for the lines you want to grow. Quick wins first, then slower builds like local pages and reviews. The plan sends people to your agents and brokers, not around them.

How an ad turns into a quote request

1

Ad

Your ad shows up when someone searches for the work you actually write.

2

Landing page

They land on one clear page about the business you want to write, with an easy way to get in touch.

3

Quote request

They ask for a quote or to speak with a broker or agent.

Mid-size mutuals

You want to grow and keep your customers, and you work through agents and brokers. Chris leans on local search, accurate listings, a clear website and search ads for the lines you want to grow. Quick wins first, then slower builds like local pages and reviews. The plan sends people to your agents and brokers, not around them.

Independent brokerages

People still choose a local advisor they trust. Chris leans on listings, reviews, a clear website and search ads for the insurance you most want to sell. Fast fixes first, then pages and content that keep working. It supports referrals. It does not replace them.

MGAs and program administrators

You mostly sell through brokers, so your website matters most. It should say clearly what you offer, who it fits and how a broker gets in touch. Chris adds focused search ads now, and helpful pages for each program over time.

Specialty and niche insurers

Broad ads tend to bring the wrong people. Chris uses very specific search ads and very clear pages, and reaches buyers who are not shopping yet where they already gather. Sometimes a partner or industry group is the better path.

Frequently asked questions

What happens on the free strategy call?

Chris talks with you about the problem that is costing you the most, and checks your public website and how you show up in search. After the call you get a written roadmap.

What is in the written roadmap?

How people search for what you offer, what your website and listings say today, how an inquiry reaches you, and what to look at first.

How do you reach people shopping for insurance now?

Search ads put you in front of them while they search. They land on a clear page with an easy way to get in touch, and your firm follows up fast. If they looked but did not reach out, a few reminder ads bring them back.

And people who are not shopping yet?

Social, video, banner ads and useful content keep your name in front of them, gently. When renewal comes up, or life changes, they already know who you are. The message is softer: who you are and why people trust you.

What works fast, and what takes longer?

Search ads and a good landing page work fastest. SEO, AI search, reviews, content and brand video build slowly, but keep working. Early on more budget goes to fast things; over time the mix shifts. The actual split is set on the free strategy call.

How would you start with a mutual?

Accurate listings, a clear website and search ads for the lines you want to grow. Then local pages, reviews and community content. People shopping now are sent to your agents and brokers. People not shopping yet hear a local, trusted story.

How would you start with an independent brokerage?

Fix listings, ask every client for an honest review and answer reviews carefully, and run search ads for the insurance you most want to sell. Over time, add a page for each kind of insurance. For people not shopping yet, social posts and short video keep you in mind at renewal.

How would you start with an MGA or program administrator?

Make the website say clearly what you offer, who it fits, and how a broker reaches you. Add focused search ads now, and helpful pages for each program over time. Email only goes to people who have agreed to hear from you.

How would you start with a specialty or niche insurer?

Very specific search ads and very clear pages, so the right people find the one page that fits. For people not shopping yet, helpful content where they already gather, like industry sites and groups. The message speaks their language.

Do you work with firms outside Canada?

No. I work with Canadian insurance firms only: mutuals, independent brokerages, MGAs and program administrators, and specialty insurers, in every province and territory.

How does LocaliQ fit in?

Insurer Signal is run by Chris Gardner. The work is delivered on the LocaliQ platform.

What should I have ready?

A work email, the firm name, the kind of firm, and where it operates. A website or listing helps Chris prepare. You do not need to send unpublished ad accounts in the form.
