No-code technology is transforming the insurance industry by automating processes and enhancing customer experience. However, it also presents challenges for insurance agents who need to adapt to new technological trends to remain competitive. No-code platforms provide opportunities for agents to improve their sales processes, increase customer satisfaction, and improve business performance. To fully realize the benefits of no-code technology, insurers and technology providers must work together to provide comprehensive training, support, and resources to help agents navigate this transition. The impact of no-code technology on insurance agents is a rapidly evolving trend that is shaping the future of the industry.
