Hi there!

I think I may explain to you a thing or two in this regard!

what carriers will work with new agents that want to go independent?


Carriers who are new at the insurance business, as well as the giants who are on an expansion mode at a specific area may look for you.

I say this, since I have noticed for over an year that those carriers are the ones who'd need to avail the large databases of consumers covered by the personal network of proactive independent agents.

Hi dear!

Are you facing any problems with your performance incentives with the Farmers recently?

I'd still ask you to think well, expecially if you're the only earner for your family. In order to work as an independent agent you need to serve your consumers well as also market your identity along with the product. If you're good at it -you win. If not, then you're gonna lose out of a brand name worthy of the Farmers. Am I speaking sense!

How can you be a licensed, selling agent without and E&O policy in force now?

Are you saying you are captive and now want to go independent is that the question?

You must mean if and when you go independent getting an e&o then right? This isn't a big deal...think you could call a number of companies about this.....Hopefully some seasoned agents will weigh in on your thread with more info re: independent agencys..... :D
