Trusted by Business Owners

Kevin is a legendary mentor in my life. I’ve worked with Kevin for many years learning the business of Insurance before he coached me into purchasing my own agency. With his mentorship and encouragement, I’ve accomplished more than I’ve ever imagined and am 2 steps away from all of my dreams coming true! He is a godsend! & I’m truly grateful to have him as a mentor. I thank him all the time for making me a real player in this business, but he’s the real MVP. Kevin not only has put me in the game, but he has put me on track to make the Allstar team. I can’t thank him enough for what he has done for me and my family.

I started working with Kevin about 2months into me purchasing my Allstate agency. My primary background was not insurance. I came in as green as can be. If it wasn’t for Kevin I honestly would be several months behind of where I am today. He helped me with my confidence to know that I can do this. He has helped me to develop the techniques needed to hire, train and coach my staff. He has guided me with tools needed to help my agency run more efficiently, he has helped me with marketing strategies on how to grow the agency organically. He is a wealth of knowledge. I would highly recommend Kevin to anyone who is looking for growth.
Jennie Perez
Let’s talk about Kevin Spann. He’s a great guy. He’s knowledgeable. He’s dedicated and he is willing to help, genuinely willing to help make you more successful. Because I am a witness that he has taken the time to help me succeed. When there is no one else there to help, he’s there to help.
It makes me happy to know that I made the right connection with the him when I joined Craig Wiggins Coaching that he was assigned to me.
 I am just so overjoyed that I get to work with him every month and whenever I need help, he is always there to help. Kevin Spann, the real deal.
