New P and C Agent Needs Advice

Well put! The point about good clients don't shop on the internet is sooooo true, but missed by soooo many.

Nothing wrong with working internet leads. It's just a different type of clientele. Yes, I've gotten some great clients from internet leads, but those are more the exception, not the norm.

I've gotten great clients online, but I can see that I have also a great relationship with my local clients.

I think you can run into some good personal lines clients online, but I do not see many good commercial lines clients going that route.

I don't want to be harsh but I just told you where to start. Find out what type of commercial business your carriers do well (bind over 40% of quotes) , run a list and hit the phones. There is no secret recipe for success in this business other than having a good product and getting in front of enough people.

Exactly what I'd do if starting out all over again
