AMS360 for accounting?
Do any AMS 360 users think that the accounting functionality is limited? Do you use a separate accounting program such as Peachtree or Quickbooks? I am very curious to know if anyone would actually use AMS360 for day to day general ledger accounting. Thanks.

QuickBooks
Any other insurance agencies out there use QuickBooks to manage your expenses and prepare end of the year taxes, or do you find it to be redundant with your agency management system?

Would joining both PIA and IIAB be redundant?
I am very curious to hear opinions on whether it would be redundant for me to join both the National Association of Professional Insurance Agents (PIA) in addition to the Independent Insurance Agents & Brokers (IIAB). It seems that they both offer the same services/benefits. Does one provide, or...

What insurance policy form would cover property and liability for a DJ that works weddings and other such parties at catering halls and other such locations? Would a Business Owners Policy suffice?

Joint Underwriting Association vs. a state Auto Plan?
What is the difference between a Joint Underwriting Association and a state "Automobile Insurance Plan"? Don't they both serve the same purpose of covering high risk drivers on a mandatory basis?

Do you purchase Damage Waiver when renting a car?
Even though a typical Personal Auto Policy will cover a vehicle that the insured rents while on vacation, do you think it is worth it to still buy the insurance offered by the car rental agent?

Re: Attorney considering CPCU- thoughts?
I have also studied for the CPCU and recommend it. It will be a reflection of your dedication to the industry. It is time consuming though. It is very interesting to hear a lot of people start the exams but do not end up taking all eight exams to finish. But it is not your only option, consider the ...

Direct carriers muscling us out of the market?
I am seeing an increasing number of ads from carriers offering auto and home insurance. Should independent agents be concerned that purchasing personal or even commercial insurance from agents will become obsolete?
