Why WIN exists

Independence is worth protecting.

Independent agencies are under real pressure from economic uncertainty and a steady push toward mergers and acquisitions. Selling isn't the only answer.

Our members share a similar outlook and drive, and many built their agencies over decades of hard work. Together we reach markets and programs none of us could reach alone, while each agency keeps running its own business its own way.

If yours is one of the leading agencies in your region, we'd like to talk.

100%

ownership of your agency stays with you

100%

of contracted commissions with your appointed markets stays with you

Member benefits

Built to give members a lasting edge.

Every benefit is designed to make a well-run agency more competitive without asking it to give up control.

Keep your brand

Your local name, identity, leadership and agency culture stay exactly as they are.

Protected territory

Memberships are limited by geographic area so members aren't competing with each other.

Profit sharing without volume commitments

Contingency commissions are shared back to members with no premium volume requirement.

Your carrier relationships

Work directly with your appointed markets and keep the relationships you've built.

Stronger compensation

Access superior compensation levels and bonus opportunities through the network.

Markets for your specialties

Reach markets that fit your agency's niche lines of business.

Profit share on smaller books

Earn profit share on books of business that would normally be too small to qualify.

Capital and perpetuation

Get help raising capital and exploring options for growth and agency succession.

A shared voice

Speak to carriers and the industry as part of a multi-state brand rather than a single shop.

In development

What's coming next

  • Centralized accounting, HR, premium finance, education, producer development and recruiting
  • A shared platform for small commercial and personal lines renewals, for agencies that want to streamline
  • Niche programs and products built from members' own expertise and books of business
  • Shared back-office services to lower costs across the network

About WIN

A coalition of best-in-class agencies.

WIN's founding members set out to build a collaborative group of like-minded independents with shared goals: growing their local client base and strengthening each member's profitability and competitive position.

The model rewards individual agency growth and excellent loss ratios with enhanced commissions and profit sharing agreements. That only works when every member holds the same standard, so we review each application carefully. The result is a well-managed network that increases the market value of every member agency.

From a member

“The WIN group has definitely played a part in our agency’s growth over the years. Being able to collaborate with agency owners that know and understand what is going on in our markets has been very beneficial.”
