July 30, 2026 · New York City · Only 30 Seats

30 Agency Owners. One Room. The Day That Changes How You Grow.

A closed door mastermind for independent agency owners who are done with surface level conferences. No keynotes or fancy presentations with slides. Just real numbers, real strategy, and 29 other owners who are building what you're building.

Grab Your Seat — $499

Lunch and dinner included. Only 30 spots.

This Isn't a Conference. It's a Room You Earn a Seat In.

Most insurance events give you a stage, a crowd, and a vendor hall. This is the opposite.

The Scratch Agency Event is a closed door, roundtable mastermind built for agency owners who are actively building something. No keynote speakers reading slides.

You'll sit across the table from 29 other owners who are in the trenches, scaling teams, fighting retention, building systems, closing deals — and you'll share what's actually working and what's not.

You'll leave with relationships, strategies, and clarity you can't get from a podcast episode or a Facebook group.

The Room Matters More Than the Agenda

We intentionally cap this at 30 agency owners. No carrier reps. No one trying to sell you something. The people in this room are writing $50K to $5M+ in revenue, building real businesses with real teams, and willing to open the books.

The execution and flow was flawless. Walked in expecting a typical event and walked out with three things I implemented that Monday.

So much value packed into one day. Met owners I'm still talking to months later and learned more in that room than at any conference I've been to.

Hard to leave early when every conversation at the table is worth staying for. Real owners, real numbers, no fluff. I'll be back.

This was a game changer for me. The roundtable format forces everyone to contribute and you walk away with answers you can actually use.

Loved the value the hosts brought and how willing everyone was to open up and share. That kind of room is rare in this industry.

If you own an agency and you're serious about building something, this is the room. I left with clarity, contacts, and a real plan.
