No,I have 4 companies at the time.Those companies are all non-stand co so iam trying to find one that will run credit and give better rates to some of my clients that have good credit and have upscale cars.Also does the weather slow business down? This whole week in houston has been very cold and icy.We have been kinda slow and iam taking this time to do my marketing.
thanks
thanks
That is good that you have 4 markets to start with. I would start contacting all the preferred companies that are competitive in your area. I am in California so I don't know much about Tex. I would look into Kemper, Allied, Travelers, Mercury, Safeco Fidelity National and Encompass. These companies may turn you down at first. Just keep writing business and keep on them and they will come around. You may need to get hooked up with a MGA in the meantime.
