Intetested in hearing from independent agent associations

[John J90]

Hi all,
I plan on going into business for myself selling commercial property casualty insurance to small to mid size businesses. I will be starting without a current book of business. I am interested in hearing from agency associations that can give me access to insurance carriers licensed in New York. My email is John.Jefferson90@gmail.com. Thank you.

There are a couple of prior posts in this formum that might be helpful under "Re: Looking for an opinion" and "Re: New Insurance agency startup". Good luck.

The groups you may want to consider joining is a cluster, alliance or network. While some assocations do provide you with markets, a cluster type group is a better option in a number of ways. Please search this forum for "clusters" you will find a piece I wrote about this. Also check out my website, I have a list of these organizations as well as Associations.
