Sound familiar?

Breaking in has been harder than you expected.

You’re not afraid of hard work—you’re just not sure where to aim it anymore to see results.

Without experience, you feel invisible to the firms.

You didn’t expect to feel this lost after doing everything the internet told you to do.

You’re not just waiting, you’re losing time and money.

You know you’re capable of becoming a top performer once you get plugged in—you just need someone to give you a shot to prove yourself.

You need help becoming a name they can trust.

You’re ready to do what it takes to become a complete-package, claims-ready adjuster.

(And if there’s an honest leg-up with the firms, you’re taking that too.)

That’s why I created Fast Track.

No need to reinvent the wheel or waste more of your life chasing scraps of advice online.

This program is everything I wish someone had shown me when I was getting started—the exact systems I used to outperform the competition on every deployment.

Without cutting corners on the training you need to become indispensable to your firms.

Firms begged me for this for years…

The Fast Track To Deployment Training & Certification Program was created at the specific request of top firms in the industry—companies I’ve worked with personally for over two decades. They’ve seen my work product, and my willingness to help new adjusters succeed.

So when I launched AdjusterTV, the emails started pouring in…

Their big ask? That I use AdjusterTV to create…

A pipeline of claims-ready new talent firms can rely on when the big call comes.

Fast-Track to Deployment teaches you the core skills firms require new adjusters to show up with, and test you so I can personally certify to those firms that you are ready to work.

Will your name be on that ready-roster?

CASE STUDY | Pete B.

From “Nobody’s Hiring” To High-Paying Commercial Claims

Before FTD

Pete had zero experience—but he didn’t want that to keep him from sounding competent when he showed up to his first storm. He joined FTD to get the “on-the-job training” he knew he wouldn’t find on the job.

After FTD

Pete started working immediately after graduating and quickly proved himself ready for bigger, better assignments. Here are just a few examples of the high-ticket claims he’s been busy handling since certifying and earning his referral...

“I've inspected everything from daycare centers, YMCAs, campgrounds, 70 building retirement communities to the 160,000 sqft commercial building I did yesterday! Thank you for setting me up for success!” – Pete B.

CASE STUDY | Corey B.

Skipped Experience Requirements For Steady Income in Daily Claims

Before FTD

Corey quickly realized his license hadn’t actually taught him how to be an adjuster. With hurricane season looming, he joined FTD for the crash course and firm connections he needed to break in fast—without waiting until next storm season to find work.

After FTD

Almost immediately after certifying he deployed to Hurricane Helene and closed 50+ claims in 2.5 weeks. He blew his competition out of the water, earning a highly sought after daily claims role. Fast forward a few months, a high-profile claim surfaced and the owner of the firm handpicked him to handle it.

C
“For a newer adjuster to be entrusted with such a significant claim speaks volumes about the effectiveness of your program. Your training not only shortened my learning curve but also ensured I was prepared to step up when the opportunity arose.” – Corey A.

“Your guidance made the process seamless and efficient.”

- Fast Track Graduate, Corey A.

CASE STUDY | Carl B.

From "Lost" To Last Man Standing On The Storm

Before FTD

After a 6-year break, Carl tried to jump back into the industry by going straight out on a hurricane deployment—only to find himself completely lost. Not wanting to blow his next shot, he joined FTD to get himself quickly up to speed.

After FTD

With all the gaps in his training filled, and his streamlined new process dialed in, Carl headed off to work another hurricane for one of our partner firms. Here's the update we received when he got home...

C
“Just arrived back home from Hurricane Helene. I was one of the last to leave the storm after receiving 109 claims! Manager said he would recommend me to anyone that would listen! Thank you so much for the training! – Carl B.
