Hey all,
Question for you vets in this market. I have a L&H agency, been running in that line for about 7 yrs. We focus mostly on senior market but i am well versed in all the segments. I am contemplating starting a P&C side to the agency becuase we have at least 10k clients and well over 250k leads in markets we cover. I think it should be an easy cross sell opportunity. My question is two-fold...first, which carriers are good in MD,DC,PA,DE area and also in FL. I would only be able to work with independant contracts becuase i will NEVER be captive with anyone.
Second, does anyone have any advice about what commission levels/renewals I should look for as a newbie on the dark side?
I know I am not going to command much respect with no book, but i dont want to get taken to the cleaners either!
Any other thoughts on the move will be welcomed as well.
thanks
