Yo Jackie, take it easy

Jaqueline,
I only stated that considering the length of your tirades on this forum, you must have alot of time on your hands. If you spent this much time studying the A.M. Best A-4 Reports from your state, you would know who is writing non-standard auto and their volume. That might tell you who is likely to appoint you. If you think Hartford or Travelers or Zurich should walk into your inexperienced office and appoint you due to your alleged disabilities, think again. We all started marketing by walking in and out of businesses who would not speak to us. We all got doors shut in our face.
Other posts are correct, I am a company marketing person and based upon your willingness to complain and whine before even writing any business, I would not appoint your shop.
I did not intend to sound male or female with my post. I have many years of experience and have dealt with problem retail agents, problem general agents and problem companies. I steer clear of those problems when practicable.
You continue to want something handed to you? You sound extremely democratic. You obviously have probably figured out the free rides available to you from your state and have "sucked them dry". Whatever, you may not like this business, but I do. You may not be in the correct business? Maybe, you should try another occupation if you think you have been treated unfairly?
I think you expect a free ride from an industry that only makes money by the professionalism of the retail force from who they accept business. Being the front line underwriter for millions of dollars of premium and "RISK", every company has an inherent right to expect their producers to be fully qualified to underwrite the business submitted. You seem to want to be able to "learn" on the financial "back" of others.
Good luck with your "I deserve a chance no matter what the cost to another" attitude.
I would suggest a Dairy Queen. "You want fries with that?" Sounds like you would take much less risk with your assets and the assets of others doing that.
Sorry if you do not like what you are hearing, but I do not like your "give it to me free" attitude. You do not deserve anything free. You should gain the experience necessary to be an attractive retail producer to potential companies. Telling them they are not being fair will not result in producer agreements...
Good luck and I suggest another forum to whine. Try Dear Abbey...
Feel free NOT to respond.
