Hello, I'm looking for some insight on how to start a Independent agency in Michigan. I've looked online and can't seem to find anything. What is the process on becoming appointed by different companies and what compaines are the best to write for? What about getting computer programs to quote for different companies, and also a reccomended company to get a errors and emmision policy through. Do companies require much to get appointed by them or is i pretty straight forward? All your help is much appreciated.
