You Know We’re The Biggest… Find Out Why We’re the Best!
It's true, bigger agencies get better options and bigger deals. What if you could become instantly big? Chances are you would gain customers, increased revenue and access to products that you wouldn't on your own—that's where we come in.
Our agency has been around since 1944 and already had multiple appointments with well-known carriers. We joined in 2014 because we recognized the increased value and negotiating strength that SIA of Northern Ohio provides. Our affiliation improved our profit margins and strengthened our carrier relationships while maintaining our independence.

We are stronger together. With over $8.9 billion in written premium and over 8,000 partner agencies nationwide, SIAA is the largest alliance of independent insurance agencies in the United States. Our collective strength delivers profitable growth and benefits to our carrier partners that is unmatched by any organization, including:
Most agents are compensated in one, maybe two, ways. They get commissions and possibly a profit sharing check. At SIA of Northern Ohio we provide FIVE levels of compensation that an agency can earn.
Most carriers provide their agents with annual profit sharing. However, many require as much as $500,000 in premium just to qualify for the smallest bonus. SIA of Northern Ohio members are eligible for higher payouts based on our collective size, regardless of their individual size. This type a bonus is paid on both a local and national level so agents can potentially qualify for two profit sharing bonuses.
Based on our collective performance, SIA of Northern Ohio and SIAA negotiate additional incentives that may be tied to achieving certain growth goals or new policies sold. These incentives, when earned collectively, are paid out to all contributing member agencies.
