We’re Here to Help You Build Your Business

We LOVE working with agents and helping them succeed. When you work with us, we become part of your team.

...

As insurance agents ourselves, we know the challenges you face. We knew we didn’t want to be “bid and quote” agents, that we had to offer much more to our clients.

So we decided to build a few exciting web apps that deliver unprecedented value to employers and make prospecting and retention drastically easier for agents like us, who also want to lead with value and actually make clients’ lives easier.

And here’s the thing: we didn’t decide to sell these apps to build a business. We’ve been extremely successful in insurance.

But at our core, we love working with other agents, sharing our perspective, helping them grow. And we’re passionate about helping employers across the country send their employees home safely every single day.

We’re just a team of midwestern guys and gals who get excited about bringing a new approach to selling insurance—and we’d love to have you join us!

Josh Boss

Master Implementer (& Almost Olympian)

If implementation is your need, then Josh is your guy. As a young kid, Josh was an avid swimmer. He made it to the Olympic trials during college and took 16th in the nation—and he even got into Sports Illustrated! He was also recently admitted to the swimmer hall of fame, and was consistently named the #1 swimmer in the state of Michigan.

You may be wondering what does swimming and his role at Emerge Apps have to do with each other? Focus and execution…and winning! To be a swimmer, it takes dedication, focus and hard work. Josh has brought that same level of tenacity to Emerge Apps to expertly plan and implement these tools for you and your clients.

That is a key difference with us and other platforms—we consider implementation and execution the most important aspect of our company. Josh is all about helping you WIN with your best clients and prospects as the leader of our implementation team. But don’t worry, Josh doesn’t wear a speedo when he works with your clients!

Randy Boss

Insurance Industry Legend (& Mountain Climber)

For the past 45 years, as an Agent and Partner at Ottawa Kent Insurance in Grand Rapids, MI, Randy has worked with his clients to improve their bottom line by creating safer, healthier, and more productive workplaces. He is always looking for innovative ways to help his clients, while continuing to drive organic growth for his agency.

This led Randy to co-found Emerge Apps with his son, Dustin, to help agents and employers EMERGE from the insurance commodity trap by utilizing innovative technology and value-based strategies.

He brings his years of boots-on-the-ground strategies that have been proven out in the field to help other agents implement these same book-growing strategies that worked for him and his agency.

Randy has a ton of experience, but don’t call him “old.” He’ll remind you of when he just scaled a cliff at a recent business trip and made it to the top, while all others (who were 20 years younger) couldn't make it halfway.

...

The “Boss guys” may be center stage, but the real magic happens with our amazing team behind the scenes. From compliance experts to customer support, Emerge Apps only functions because of our excellent team of folks making it happen.
