What People Say About SIAA and MIA
From member agencies across Mississippi, from the carriers who partner with the network, and from the trade press.
From Our Members
We have added markets and combined premium volume to give us compensation previously not available. We also have a perpetuation plan in place for my agency.
Albert Moore, PresidentAlbert Moore Insurance Agency, Inc. · Pearl, MS
The main reason for joining SIAA was a lack of markets for a small and rural agency. Not only did we get more markets, this availability of markets allowed us to generate enough premiums and commissions to pay our initial joining fee.
Douglas Russell, PresidentIndianola Insurance Agency, Inc. · Indianola, MS
I needed to do something fast… My SIAA regional Master Agency set me up with a turnkey operation that immediately gave me access to companies. The longer I’m part of the organization the more I understand and appreciate the advantages SIAA gives me as an independent agent.
Paul Johnson1st Alliance Insurance Agency · Olive Branch, MS
MIA is a great way for smaller agencies to access more markets than would otherwise be available to us. The bonus commissions and contingency opportunities are an added benefit. We’ve been a member for two years and wish we had done it sooner.
Scott PalmerPalmer Insurance Agency · Forest, MS
From the Carriers
The system SIAA devised helps agents acquire the products and services of top insurance carriers, which on their own would have been elusive, at best.
Roger Jean, CEOLiberty Mutual Regional Agency Markets
Through their SMA/ISM business model, SIAA provides a real service to independent agents who are interested in income growth, increased agency value, and perpetuation. SIAA takes an active interest in the selection, management and success of network members, which benefits all parties, including The Hartford. As a national company partner, we also enjoy favorable access to significant amounts of profitable premium, translating into attractive compensation opportunities for SIAA members.
Bruce Anderson, DirectorNational Client Practices · The Hartford
We are excited to be an integral part of the SIAA distribution network and believe this relationship will help us meet and exceed our growth objectives. We are proud to align ourselves with an entity dedicated to the growth and preservation of the independent agency system.
Gregory ToczydlowskiSenior Vice President, Personal Lines · Travelers Insurance Company
From the Trade Press
SIAA’s Master Agencies offer attractive benefits to member firms during current market conditions.
Rough Notes Magazine
As SIAA signs up more and more satellite agencies, their combined premium fosters substantial profit and commission overrides, which SIAA trickles down to its Master Agents and their Members.
