“We believe our size gives
us a competitive advantage
against both smaller and
larger agents and brokers.
Against smaller brokers we
simply have more volume
and therefore more clout.
Against the public brokers
we typically have better
access to the top executives
of our carriers because our
top executives are directly
engaged – we aren’t stuck
going through the carriers’
middle manager chain of
command.”
