Ask Your Peers  MGA/Program Administrator Opportunity

Over the past year we've had great success in a niche market and I'm very interested in discussing an opportunity to grow this segment. With that being said we have two MGA's we currently deal with for different underwriting appetites however the process is slow and far from seamless. I'd like to build out a much better process and partner with one MGA willing to give us some level of authority. Anyone know of an MGA and/or direct carrier that would be willing to discuss this further? I've also contemplated obtaining our surplus lines license and going after the carriers direct with the program idea but it's costly and no guarantee I'll find someone to play ball.

Any input and/or resources to point me in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.

This is geared towards the Aesthetician & Tattoo industry and we are strictly selling the product at this point as a retail agency.

We are a program administrator with writing authority for SASSI, our specialized program that offers coverages for Salons, Spas, Nail Salons, Barber Shops and Beauty Schools. We write an admitted product through an A+ rated carrier, so you wouldn't need your surplus license to work with us. You can look at more detail about our coverages at www.sassiagency.com. We would be happy to have a further discussion with you on the potential of a partnership with you and your agency. The best person to contact at Brownyard Group would be our Sr. VP of Operations, Sean Brownyard. His email is [email protected] and his direct line is 631-666-5050 x113.
