FREE of charge!

How does your agency measure up?

Have you ever wondered how your agency’s financial performance stacks up against that of your peers in the Independent Agency System?  Until now, you’ve been able to compare yourself only to similar sized agencies that don’t enjoy the superior productivity and profitability generally associated with IMMS Membership.

We’re pleased to announce an agreement with premier consulting firm Agency Consulting Group, Inc. (ACG), publisher of the industry-wide Composite Groups, to create a Composite Group exclusively for IMMS Members.

For the first time, you’ll be able to compare your financial results against a Composite Group of IMMS Members, free of charge!

Here’s how the system works:

1. Click on the link at the bottom of this page to bring up the Agency Benchmarking Worksheet. Scroll down to “Special for IMMS Members,” and then “Click Here” to bring up the IMMS Agency Benchmarking Worksheet.

2. Enter your year-end operating statement and balance sheet information, which will go into the ACG IMMS Members database. Once you’ve entered this information, ACG will delete your agency identification from the database.

3. You’ll receive a user ID and Password that lets you view the IMMS Composite Group alongside the National Composite Groups for comparative analysis of your results. Only Members who submit their information to the database will have access to the results.

4. If you’d like, AGC will perform a "Quick Analysis,"comparing your agency against the Composite Group for only $30.

Remember, the more Members who provide their data, the wider the basis for comparative analysis!

What’s more, all Members will receive a free e-mail subscription to THE PIPELINE, ACG’s excellent newsletter for agency principals. THE PIPELINE has been providing leading edge information to agency principals for more than 15 years. We look forward to your using the valuable insights in each issue.

If you have any questions or difficulties entering data, call AGC at (800) 779-2430 and they’ll be happy to help you.
