Your Insurance Conference Shouldn't Feel Like Every Other Insurance Conference
Deliver a keynote that actually sticks.
Jake Thompson teaches systems that work when motivation fades.
Jake Thompson is a Certified Speaking Professional (CSP®) who trains insurance leaders and producers to compete when the scoreboard goes quiet. No rah-rah hype. Just proven frameworks that create behavior change long after your conference ends.
Stop Booking Speakers Who Sound Great But Change Nothing
You've seen it before. The conference keynote gets a standing ovation. Attendees feel pumped. By Monday, everyone's back to business as usual.
Meanwhile, your top producers coast after a big quarter. New agents struggle to build momentum. Mid-performers settle into "good enough" territory. And you're left wondering: Why did we invest in a conference if nothing actually changes?
Here's the truth meeting planners don't say out loud: Most insurance conferences waste their keynote budget on temporary inspiration instead of lasting transformation.
Your attendees don't need another motivational speech. They need an operating system that works when the adrenaline wears off.
this isn't about motivation - it's about methodology
Jake Thompson doesn't deliver feel-good speeches that fade by the next policy renewal.
He equips insurance professionals with the Compete Every Day® and Beat Yesterday® frameworks—two battle-tested systems designed to eliminate complacency and sustain performance when external pressure drops.
These aren't inspirational concepts. They're repeatable playbooks that create:
-
Daily competitive rituals that keep top producers hungry after they've already won
-
"You vs. You" competition that makes leaderboards and rankings irrelevant
-
Accountability systems that turn team culture from "every agent for themselves" to "we compete together"
-
Momentum multiplication that transforms isolated wins into sustained winning streaks
You're not just looking for a speaker. You're looking for someone who understands the insurance industry - the pressure to hit production targets, the challenge of retaining top talent, the reality of competing in a commoditized market.
Jake Thompson specializes in insurance industry events. He's worked with insurance associations, agencies, brokerages, and carriers nationwide, from independent agents to Fortune 500 insurance companies.
Jake is a Certified Speaking Professional (CSP®) - a designation earned by less than 17% of speakers worldwide - and the founder of Compete Every Day®, a performance movement reaching 100,000+ professionals across 62 countries.
What makes Jake different from typical conference speakers:
-
No fluff. Every keynote includes actionable frameworks your attendees implement immediately.
-
Industry-specific customization. Jake researches your organization, understands your challenges, and tailors every program to your audience.
-
Systems over motivation. Jake teaches repeatable disciplines that create results 90 days after your conference, not just 90 minutes.
-
CSP® credentialed. You're booking a proven professional, not just a motivational speaker.
Jake customizes his programs for insurance conferences, sales summits, leadership retreats, and producer events. Your attendees won't just feel inspired - they'll leave with a competitive playbook they can use Monday morning.

"I'm thrilled to offer my full recommendation for Jake Thompson! I've been following Jake and his Compete Every Day message since we first connected online in 2017—and his philosophy has been a powerful influence on how I lead and how our teams show up every day.
We recently had the opportunity to bring Jake in as the keynote speaker for our National Sales Summit, and he delivered in every sense of the word. What stood out most was the intentionality and preparation he brought to the table. Jake took the time to truly understand our company, our people, and the purpose behind the summit. That effort showed in his delivery—his message was customized, relevant, and resonated deeply with our team.
The feedback from our post-event surveys was overwhelmingly positive. But what’s even more impressive is Jake’s continued follow-up and engagement with our team. He’s not a “one and done” speaker—he’s a true partner who genuinely wants to see your team grow and win.
If you're looking for a speaker/partner who will inspire, connect, and invest in your team, Jake is the one. Highly recommend!"
