The independent agencies in your area, by line and by niche.
A two-person personal lines shop and a forty-person commercial agency that writes trucking don't need the same markets or the same software. Tell the agent the area, the size and the lines: it searches professional databases, public sources and each agency's website, removes the duplicates, and hands you a list.

An area
A state, a metro or a radius around an address. The agent covers the whole area and hands you one list, with no duplicates and no closed agencies.
A size
A two-person shop or a fifty-person agency: headcount comes from professional databases, so you can target the agencies at the right stage.
A line or a niche
Trucking, contractors, restaurants, farms, personal lines: the agent reads each agency's website and keeps the ones that lead with that niche.
Independent or not
The agent reads each website and notes whether the agency is still independent or now part of a larger firm, so you know who decides.
The principal of each agency, and the lines it writes.
At an independent agency, the principal picks the carriers, the management system and the partners. It's worth reaching them directly, and knowing which lines the agency already writes before you call. The agent fills in the columns row by row and verifies every email before adding it.

The website email
The agent reads each agency's website, finds the contact email published there and verifies it before adding it to the list.
The principal
The owner or agency principal, with a verified email and a cell when there is one. They pick the carriers and the tools the agency uses.
Lines and carriers
Personal, commercial, benefits, and how many carriers each agency says it represents: what its website says, sorted into columns.
Online quotes
A column shows whether each agency offers an online quote form or client portal, so you know where it stands on tools before you write.
Automations that spot the agencies on the move.
An agency that hires a producer, adds a new line or sells to a larger firm will rethink its carriers and its tools within months. Each automation reruns its search on schedule and adds what just changed to the top of the list. Those are your signals, and they show up on their own.

Hiring
Every morning, an automation flags the agencies that post an opening for a producer or an account manager, with a “Hiring” badge.
New lines
Every month, the agent rereads each agency's website and flags the ones that add a line, like cyber, trucking or employee benefits.
Service complaints
Every Monday, the agent reads each agency's new reviews and flags the ones where clients complain about claims help or slow replies.
Your own watch
Any watch you can write in one sentence, like agencies that sell to a larger firm: the agent reruns it on schedule and tells you what changed.
A campaign that steers clear of January 1 renewals.
From October to December, agencies remarket the commercial accounts that renew on January 1, and benefits shops are deep in open enrollment. Run your campaigns from February to May and again in August and September: the sending window follows the hours principals are in the office, and the sequence stops on the first reply.
Subject A market for your niche accounts
Each variable is a column of your list, filled in by the agent.
Outside renewal season
October to January belongs to renewals. Campaigns go out from February to May and in late summer, Tuesday to Thursday, 9 to 11:30 am.
Calls from the browser
You call from your browser, mid-morning, when the principal is in the office. Every call is recorded, transcribed and summarized in the list.
Tailored messages
Every email is built from the list's columns, and an agent step rereads the agency's website to mention the lines and niches it leads with.
Stops on reply
As soon as a principal replies, the sequence stops for their agency. You take it from there, and the next follow-up never goes out.
Frequently asked questions
Write “independent insurance agencies in Tennessee that write trucking”. The agent starts from public sources and professional databases, reads each agency's website, keeps the ones that lead with trucking, and hands you the list with each agency's headcount, niche and other lines. It takes a few minutes.
Ask for “the principal of each agency, with their email and cell phone”. The agent looks for them agency by agency, reads the team page of the website, verifies every email and adds the cell when it finds one. When the principal can't be found, the agency's contact email takes over.
Tell the agent once: “every month, reread the website of each agency on my list and flag the ones that announce a new line”. The automation compares with the month before, and those agencies land at the top of your list with the line they added.
A first email that mentions the niche each agency leads with, a call two days later, then a follow-up the agent writes from the agency's website. Emails go out from your own mailbox Tuesday to Thursday between 9 and 11:30 am, calls from your browser, and the sequence stops as soon as an agency replies.
For 500 agencies with their website read, 400 verified principal emails and about 170 cell phones, count around €70 of data on top of the subscription. An agency typically charges €1,500 to €2,500 for a comparable list, delivered once and never updated.See pricing
Yes. The agent reads each website and notes whether the agency presents itself as part of a larger broker or network. You keep the independents, group the ones that belong to the same firm, or target only them.
