"Are you, another agent and/or an experienced/licensed agency professional looking for a new, unique and refreshing P&C insurance agent experience with an established organization? Please see the following"
Our organization is a long-established independent Midwest insurance agency, and we’ve been serving individuals, families, and businesses for four generations since 1945. We operate on a foundation of unparalleled honesty, integrity, and personal service. We have designed this opportunity to compliment and assist an agent to the greatest degree possible who desires to both grow and derive long-term satisfaction in being a valued team member and trusted insurance professional, both now and in the future. Striking out on your own and negotiating carrier contracts can be very difficult if not impossible. We know this and our desire is to see you become both successful and enjoy long-term success as a team member with our organization. The following outlines key variables we feel set us apart:
- You work as a remote agent with our organization, thus allowing you the autonomy regarding where you work (home, “brick & mortar” office, a rented work space with set weekly hours to meet with clients….all are options) and how you work (tasks you perform vs back office). Please note superior customer service and profitable growth are keys to long-term success
- Do you want to be a sales agent that sells to meet monthly goals/quotas, or a trusted insurance professional, both by clients and in your community? We are looking the the later
- Current comprehensive integrated systems already in place for you that are streamlined to ensure efficiency and ease of doing business
- Training and resources immediately available at your fingertips
- An industry leading suite of insurance carriers and you have immediate access to all carriers (some organizations/aggregators limit your carrier accessibility, and we do not).
- Many carriers we represent do not work with aggregators, and these are some of the top rated P&C insurance carriers in the nation.
- You brand yourself (examples: “Insure with agent John Doe” on marketing materials you might want to develop, or social media. Or, email address that says “insure with johnd.com”), while having the support of a comprehensive established organization to include if you so desire.
- Our culture is based on a team/unified to facilitate greatest degree of customer satisfaction, and not sales goals, quotas and competition. A culture in which you are valued and appreciated
- Commission structure that you get to select and that best meets your personal and professional effectiveness on how you desire to operate with respect to production and service
- Competitive commission structure that has the potential to exceed 14%. NOTE: This is not based on some present insurance company models that pay more commission if you write more business. The percentage presented is derived on what our organization has experienced based on a combination of markets used and our mix of personal and commercial lines, thus your portfolio commission percentage could be higher or lower depending on how you develop your client portfolio (i.e. commercial commissions are generally higher than personal lines commissions)
- Commission are not impacted (i.e.reduced) if you don’t produce at certain levels and/or types of business
- There are no up-front fees to get started with us, as is generally the case with most other similar organizations
- You are vested in your business over time, and you can pass your vested business on to company approved family members, friends, or other agents (if that agent continues with our organization) with no fees
- Training and support from day one
- No cost localized social media marketing designed to promote your partnership with our organization and promoting/branding you as the local agent
- Participation in contingency (bonus) compensation once your production meets established threshold and profitability criteria over time
- Back office support to perform quoting and service tasks, which allows you to focus on sales
- Your are integrated into our website, thus you don’t have to develop your own website as part of our organization, thus making it easy for you to both promote your personal brand as an agent, while leveraging your affiliation with a trusted client-focused top rated organization
- Our industry is changing and we welcome that change as we continue to improve all facets of how we do business, thus ensuring long term sustainability in a dynamic and ever changing industry. Our desire to to stay ahead of change and capitalize where others are concerned with or even afraid of change.
Our organization balances “old school” service (we answer our phones and no voice prompts with phone trees and welcome walk-in clients with immediate service) together with cutting edge technology in the event a prospect/client desires working only through electronic channels. This approach, coupled with superior service, fosters the greatest and primary source for our marketing…simply we ask for referrals, and it’s amazing how effective this has been for us.
As an independent agency, we aren’t tied to any single carrier. Instead, we partner with a wide range of industry-leading, financially stable & reputable property & casualty insurance companies, giving our clients broad access to competitive options across both personal and commercial lines. That includes home, auto, life, and an expanded suite of business insurance solutions—even for hard-to-place risks.
We emphasize a concierge community-based approach because we live and work in the same communities we serve. Our service model is straightforward and down-to-earth, focused on delivering the right coverage at a fair price with responsive, personal support.
Our customer reviews consistently highlight our professionalism, responsiveness, and ability to find strong coverage options—often saving clients money compared to their previous insurer(s). Many testimonials mention our friendliness, expertise, and willingness to go above and beyond, whether we’re assisting with new policies, navigating claims, or helping clients understand their coverage.
Beyond insurance services, we maintain an active educational presence through blog posts that cover topics like bundling policies, seasonal home maintenance, safe driving habits, and guidance on handling accidents or protecting valuables.
Overall, we position ourselves as a trusted professional, service-driven independent insurance partner with broad carrier access, a strong reputation for superior customer care, and deeply entrenched in the communities we proudly serve. We are professional insurance agents charged with protecting client assets. We are not insurance sales people.
