IHT Insurance Boosts Your Business

There is an old saying, “Let sleeping dogs lie.” Such a conservative belief in the immutability of the past is anathema to us at the IHT Insurance Agency Group. Indeed, we  have adopted a philosophy that is almost directly opposed to such a quiescent attitude. We strongly believe that if the old way of doing business isn't working, then it is pointless tinkering about with it – simply get rid of it and create a newer, better-functioning model. And this model, firmly believes IHT Insurance, boosts your business exponentially.

We have adopted this philosophy ever since the IHT Insurance Agency Group was formed. Indeed, we have been causing a considerable stir in the usually placid waters of the insurance industry by introducing ground-breaking changes in the way of finding competitive insurance rates.

In the not-so-distant past, different agents tended to work alone. Naturally, this meant having limited resources, with the single agent having access to only a couple of different carriers and markets. The practical effects this had on the customer was disastrous. It meant that the consumer was essentially deprived of the choice to find the best possible deal on the market, for the simple reason that there were no other options. So, the client would be handed an insurance policy that was very often overpriced and almost always containing details that were non-specific to that client's actual needs. We are not suggesting that the insurance companies were doing this for any unscrupulous reasons. Only that they themselves had only limited choice in what they could offer. Therefore, they adopted a kind of, “One shoe fits all,” policy. A bad system for both insurer and consumer – and one definitely not considered by IHT an insurance solution.

IHT Insurance Agency Group was conceived by a handful of fed-up insurance agents, who realised that the existing system was simply not working. We discussed the situation as often as we could and eventually decided to start our own company, IHT Insurance Agency Group. What we decided to do seems, on the face of it, to be obvious: instead of insurance agents being forced to work alone in isolated markets and with virtually no resources, these agents could join the newly-formed IHT Insurance Group and effectively group all their resources under one roof. Therefore, almost overnight, the agent suddenly found themselves enjoying insurance markets and carriers from all over America. Good news for the agent, and very good news for the consumer.

IHT Insurance Agency Group LLC- Helping You Retain Independence and Control of Your Business

In a business world that slowly seems to be toppling towards monopolization of certain markets, it is more difficult than ever fro small companies to retain their independence without getting swallowed up by larger forces. This, or, in fact just getting put out of business, as competition finds easiest ways to offer your clients with the same product or service, for less of the money. Running one's own company can be hugely rewarding, and being able to work independently a dream for many. Here at IHT Agency, we are committed to helping insurance agents and agencies retain their independence in an increasingly competitive insurance industry.

IHT Insurance Boosts Your Business, by supporting agents and agencies an allowing them to operate without quotas and restrictions, but with all the benefits of big business. One of the key problems faced by smaller agencies is the fact that they usually work only with one or a few carriers. This is usually because they have been able to build fruitful business partnerships and hold positive personal relations with each other. However, this has one very obvious downside. Choice.

In the 21st century, those who fail to offer choice, often risk getting shoved aside by a company offering what they don;t have. In insurance, this is a common occurrence. If a small agency only has one or two insurance price options with their carriers, then it is easy for another larger business to come along and snap up their custom. This can lead to small independent agencies falling apart and losing clients very quickly. 

Here at IHT, our partner agencies get access to our large and ever growing list of carriers, allowing them to offer their clients a huge range of products and prices. Many independent companies choose not to work with companies like IHT Agency, in fear of the large production quotas and other control methods that are usually bound with the contracts. However, here at IHT, we respect and celebrate independence, and therefore don't place any production quotas on our partners- just give them the access to the carriers. In light of this approach to independence, we also give our partners direct access to the carriers, and step aside as the annoying middle man.

This way, they can work with clients and carriers much more efficiently, saving everyone time and money. IHT Insurance Solution is perfect for small agencies and agents looking to extent their portfolios whilst retaining their independence.
