EAOC Member Spotlight: Shawn Jin Shares How Kingdom Global Insurance Solutions Helps Businesses Protect What They’ve Built

This week’s EAOC morning meeting featured an insightful presentation from member Shawn Jin of Kingdom Global Insurance Solutions, who shared how his firm helps small and medium-sized businesses protect their people, property, and profits through customized commercial insurance solutions and proactive risk management.

As an independent insurance agency, Kingdom Global Insurance Solutions takes a personalized approach to business insurance. Rather than offering a one-size-fits-all policy, Shawn explained the importance of understanding each company’s unique operations, challenges, and exposures to create coverage that truly fits their needs.

From general liability and commercial property insurance to workers’ compensation, cyber liability, business auto, employer practices liability, and industry-specific protections, Kingdom Global Insurance Solutions helps business owners navigate the many risks that can impact their financial stability. Shawn emphasized that insurance should be more than just a requirement—it should be a strategic tool that helps businesses operate with greater confidence.

A key focus of Shawn’s presentation was the importance of clarity and communication. Many business owners find insurance confusing or overwhelming, especially as their companies grow and their needs become more complex. Kingdom Global Insurance Solutions works to simplify the process by helping clients understand their coverage, identify potential gaps, and make informed decisions about protecting their businesses.

Shawn also highlighted the value of taking a proactive approach to risk management. By reviewing current programs, identifying inefficiencies, and improving coverage strategies, businesses may be able to strengthen protection while potentially reducing unnecessary costs. This is especially valuable for companies experiencing growth, expanding operations, adding employees, or facing rising insurance expenses.

The ideal referral for Kingdom Global Insurance Solutions is a growing business owner who has outgrown their current insurance relationship and needs a more strategic partner. Companies with 1 to 250 employees—particularly in industries such as construction, trades, manufacturing, restaurants, transportation, logistics, retail, professional services, and technology—can benefit from a thoughtful review of their insurance program.

Shawn shared that some of the strongest opportunities are businesses struggling with high workers’ compensation costs, frequent claims, rapid growth, new locations, expanding teams, or increased operational complexity. These situations often create opportunities to uncover coverage gaps, improve risk management, and create a more effective insurance strategy.

EAOC members appreciated learning more about how Shawn and Kingdom Global Insurance Solutions help business owners protect the companies they have worked so hard to build. His presentation reinforced the value of having trusted advisors who not only provide solutions but also help businesses prepare for future success.

VICE PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

Happy Friday, EAOC!

Another fantastic week of connections, conversations, and learning at EAOC! This week, we heard from Shawn Jin of Kingdom Global Insurance Solutions, who shared how his team helps business owners navigate the often-complicated world of commercial insurance.

Shawn reminded us that insurance is not just about having a policy in place—it’s about understanding the risks that can impact a company and building a plan to protect the business, its employees, and its future. As an independent insurance agency, Kingdom Global Insurance Solutions takes the time to understand each client’s operations and provide coverage recommendations that are tailored to their unique needs.

Whether it’s protecting against property damage, liability claims, employee injuries, cyber threats, or the challenges that come with business growth, Shawn helps owners make informed decisions and avoid costly surprises. He also highlighted the importance of reviewing insurance programs regularly, especially when a company is hiring, expanding, adding vehicles, opening new locations, or taking on larger projects.

A great referral for Shawn is a business owner who feels their current insurance provider is no longer keeping pace with their growth. Companies with 10–250 employees—especially those in construction, contracting, manufacturing, restaurants, transportation, retail, and professional services—can benefit from having an advisor who takes a proactive approach to managing risk and improving coverage.

The biggest takeaway from Shawn’s presentation: the right insurance strategy can do more than protect a business—it can provide the confidence and stability owners need to focus on growth.

Thank you, Shawn, for sharing your expertise and showing us how Kingdom Global Insurance Solutions helps businesses safeguard what they have built!

See you next week!

- Gary

What People are Saying

In 2008, a former member gave a lead of a local private school. After my initial visit, they signed on as a client and ordered small orders regularly, every year. As they grew, so did their order size. And although the member has not been a member for several years, this client has accounted for a total revenue of $60,000 at very nice profit margins. We have built a very good relationship with the school, and expect they will continue to order much in the years to come.  An example of how EAOC keeps on working...The Lead that KEEPS ON GIVING!

Carlos Salazar, Salazar Associates

We receive thousands of dollars of business each year directly from our members, but more importantly, through our member's referrals. 

Also, we have saved a significant amount of money on services and products our members offer. I am using or have used our CC merchant, our promotional member, our commercial insurance broker, our handyman, our Labor Law Attorney, our pest control company, our Fleet Vehicle dealer, our event center and restaurant member, our florist, our HVAC contractor, our Paving Contractor, our Glass and Shower Door member, our realtor, and have referred them to our friends and customers. 

Ron Dymek, Dymek’s Freedom Plumbing

When I was invited to be a part of the EAOC, I had no idea that a “by invitation only” networking group existed. Well, we’ve been around since the early 70’s. And, what a great group of business associates we have. 

Not only are these members excellent business owners that I can refer my clients to, they are an invaluable source of knowledge for me and my clients. 

Often, merely providing information is just what was needed. These professionals are like my business partners, they are champions of my business as well as their own. 

Joining this group of dedicated business professionals has been the key to my success and I’m happy to be a part of this fantastic group. 

Gizi Clemmer, FirstTeam Real Estate

I joined EAOC because of a friend.  In my first year I have gained over 10k in continual annual business.

Quinton Fasola, ASURE Software

In the past 42 years I have received many good leads that have become good clients.  Many of them are still clients of the firm I am with today (This represented 50% of the clients that I merged into the new firm).  I have used many past and current members for a reliable source of good and reputable suppliers for both business and personal needs, including several members that helped me make profitable investments over the years.

Hal Grimshaw, Belden Hiramoto Liu & Co., LLP

I joined EAOC because Phil Kintz asked me. At the time the cost and early meeting time was a concern. The first six months of membership I received an extra $6000 in volume.

Gary Gregg, Creating With Glass

I have been a member for many years in several different classifications. EAOC has always provided me with a steady flow of leads. However the biggest benefit I’ve received has been “outside” of the core purpose of leads. A past member John Valentine, mentioned to me that he had heard about some industrial land for sale in Costa Mesa. I ended up buying it, building a warehouse and running my business at the time (South Coast Stationers) there for about thirty years. It was an excellent investment.

Pete Sloan,

A lead from Past member Bob Hardman eight years ago resulted in $15,000 of business. A lead from Mel Smith eight years ago resulted in $25,000 of business. Benefits of membership include direct business from other members resulting in $10,000 in business and direct business with other members that resulted in excellent service and financial savings.

Carlos Salazar, Salazar Associates

I have built my entire business on leads from the EAOC. I started my association management firm in 1981 with one client EAOC. In the last thirty four years the business has grown to fourteen associations. We employ eleven full time and one part time employee. I can trace ten of my long term clients to referrals from EAOC that brings in over $500,000 annually. The network of present and passed members has had a tremendous impact on my life.

Gayle Stewart, Gayle Stewart Enterprises

EAOC has been a reliable source of steady business for me for about thirty years. Thank You EAOC!
