For the fifth year, Insurance Business America is singling out the best-performing insurance professionals from around the country. These 65 insurance brokers collectively earned $32.4 million in commission revenue in 2018, with six crossing the $3 million mark on their own. In celebration of those producers, IBA created the Platinum Producers Club, which gives special recognition to the individuals that are within the top percentile of all producers.
While the majority of this year’s Top Producers are veterans with more than 10 years of experience, the 2019 group also contains several rookies who have proved that impressive results can be achieved within a few short years.
On the following pages, these producers share the keys to their career success, as well as the strategies they employed in 2018 to garner even more success over prior years.
