This is the mission we set out to achieve when we began State Insurance Group 15 years ago. The goal was to provide power through an association of like-minded individuals with entrepreneurial drive and passion for building relationships. Since our insurance careers began in the captive space, there were certain elements that were important as we considered our path for going independent.

We understood the value in being part of an aggregator/network/cluster or franchise and we reviewed those options carefully, but while each one provided unique benefits, it seemed that they were “captive under another cover.” We were looking for something different—a way to be truly Independent while gaining advantages being afforded to large groups. We reinvented the group model and made a way for agents to OWN their agencies, OWN their books, and be the designer of their OWN destinies.
