Hi,
First of all, I would like to thank all the experienced gurus on this forum for taking time to educate and help newbie like me.
I am newly licensed General lines P&C agent in Texas/Houston looking forward to start my own agency. I am have been reading through various posts on this forum about " impossibilities on getting direct appointments with carrier without an existing book of business" but still confused on the direction.
Can you please let me know some of the standard carriers that I can reach out for appointments in Houston area. Also what are some of the best MGA's or clusters that can be approached for carrier access and training, if direct appt wont work.
