Luis Lushman
Luis Lushman is an Account Manager at Next Call Club, where his job is to answer the question every agency asks when performance dips: is it the leads, the process, or something else? With more than 20 years in customer service and over a decade in insurance, including time on the agency side, Luis knows firsthand the pressure of protecting a hard-earned marketing budget. He treats his clients' lead investment as something to actively defend, not just manage. In practice that means staying closely connected through client Slack channels, running monthly deep dives into contact, quote, and close trends, and turning what he finds into clear, data-backed guidance rather than just a status report.

Krishna Reddy
Krishna Reddy is the Chief Information Officer and a co-founder of Next Call Club, where he approaches insurance lead generation the way an engineer approaches a system. Most agencies treat lead providers like black boxes, buying leads, hoping for quality, and reacting when something breaks. Krishna does the opposite. Drawing on a background in Industrial Engineering and Computer Science, he sees structure where others see chaos and optimization where others see complaints. He specializes in ping-post lead buying and quality control for agencies across the US, building data checks that catch problems before they ever reach an agent and using mathematical modeling to optimize each client's lead price and lead quality.

Today Danny works alongside NCC's analytics, digital, and marketing teams, coordinating across departments to find ethical, high-performance ways to lower spending, increase profit, and make the company easier and better to work in.

Ryan Hill
Ryan Hill is a sales trainer at Next Call Club, where he coaches producers and sales teams on turning more conversations into closed business. Known for high energy and a record-breaking track record of his own, Ryan focuses on the parts of selling most reps shy away from: overcoming objections, working every lead to its full value, and making sure no money gets left on the table. His coaching comes from real production experience, not theory. Ryan joined Peachy Insurance in 2018 and quickly stood out for his ability to overcome objections and maximize every lead. He became the first producer at the agency to write over $100,000 in premium in a single month, a number that became the new benchmark for the team. After his promotion to manager, he proved he could do more than sell at a high level. He could teach others to do it too, replicating his results across an entire sales floor. That talent for developing people is what he brings to every team he trains at NCC.

Andrew Filar
Andrew Filar is the co-founder and CEO of Next Call Club, a boutique, white-glove lead and telemarketing vendor built for insurance agents who are tired of getting burned by vendors too big to care about them. After more than a decade in insurance sales and agency leadership, Andrew started NCC to close the gap between the marketers selling leads and the agents buying them. The company focuses on home and auto, runs every lead and call through nine quality checks before it goes out, and measures success by profitability per agent rather than raw volume. Andrew sold his first policy in 2013 as a State Farm producer with no experience and a brutal first eight months. The turning point came when he realized the leads were never the problem, his process was. By year two he was the top-ranked sales rep in Florida. He went on to lead sales at the largest captive insurance agency in the country, then co-founded Peachy Insurance in 2018, scaling it to $45 million in premium in seven years with internet leads as the only marketing source. Through NCC and his writing, he focuses on what actually works in insurance lead generation, what vendors won't tell you, and the math nobody runs accurately.

Carissa McElligott
Carissa McElligot is Data & Analytics Leader at Next Call Club, where she leads the data, analytics, and operations work that closes the gap most agencies live in: drowning in data but starving for insight. Agencies track performance metrics, retention, and lifetime value, but those numbers often just sit there without meaning. Carissa turns that chaos into clarity. She designs dashboards that track what actually matters, translates complex data into plain, actionable insight, and builds the operational systems that bring accountability and efficiency to the agencies NCC serves. She also consults directly with agency leaders on customer service and operations, helping them build accountable, positive, revenue-focused cultures.

Richard Rees
Richard Rees leads and trains the SDR teams behind Next Call Club's outbound program for independent insurance agencies. Most teams work hard on outbound but lose prospects in the first ten seconds, and that is exactly where Richard focuses: building the psychology, talk paths, and coaching rhythms that turn "not interested" into live transfers producers can actually close. Day to day he designs talk paths, runs call reviews, tunes objection handling, and tightens pipeline hygiene so new reps ramp faster and every transfer meets the agent's criteria.
