You can not just open your doors as an indeoendent and get those carriers that you are talking about. Auto-owners impossible for a start up to get. Captive is the easy way to go. You can start off writing a good product with a name brand.
I’ve never seen the advantage to being a captive agent, unless you’re selling the State Farm brand name. With so many big names in the independent market that people know in the Midwest like Citizens, Auto Owners and Travelers I don’t think you get any advantage being captive.
