Re: Best P@C Nitch Market
Keep in mind that niche markets are usually pretty high risk operations...(= big claims) and P&C companies that appoint agents to write these kinds of risks don't just let any agent have binding authority. You will have earn it, especially an agent new to property/casualty lines.
I fully agree that P&C Niches do require extra knowledge in a particular subject to a degree... You can market to shops and Dealers for garage stuff all you want too. But keep in mind the agent who knows his way around a shop already is going to walk in before you or after you. Did his niche find him? Probably more like: Who he knows and what he knows.
