Are you hoping to start an agency in the service industry? How about starting your own insurance agency?

In the past decade, the insurance industry contributed more to the US GDP than banks for the first time. Insurance statistics show that the industry has been pretty good lately, and the trend is not slowing anytime soon. Factors driving growth in the insurance sector include sustained economic growth, better interest rates, and greater investment income. Besides, insurance companies adopted investments in technological and operational efficiencies during the pandemic, a move that has helped the industry thrive.

However, building an insurance agency is no small task. Ensure you have enough equity and get ready to work hard and make smart decisions.

In this list, you'll find real-world insurance agency success stories and very profitable examples of starting a insurance agency that makes money.
