[H2] ERIE wants to help start or grow agencies in each of the 12 states that we operate in. Here are answers to the most frequently asked questions.
What does ERIE look for when appointing a new agency?We look for local, community-oriented, service-driven agency owners who live and work in their community. While insurance experience and prior business ownership is helpful, they are not required. What does the process for becoming appointed as an agency owner look like?The main steps of the appointment process for receiving an ERIE contract include meetings with your local District Sales Manager, producing a written business/production plan, and a credit/background check. The process varies on a case-by-case basis, but it typically takes 2-4 months from start to finish. What type of investment do I need in order to get started?Unlike other insurance carriers, we do not have a franchise fee or specific dollar amount of capital to get started. We recommend that you have money to invest in your new venture, however, there is no set dollar amount. How are agents compensated?Agents are compensated via commission on both new business and renewal business. Additionally, there are a variety of bonus programs to reward agencies for growth, profitability and performance. Do I need to have an insurance license?Yes, an insurance license is required to be formally appointed with Erie Insurance Group, however, we welcome you to reach out prior to becoming licensed in your state if you’d like to discuss the opportunity. How does ERIE support Agents?ERIE offers you a robust support team with an assigned district sales manager, a dedicated underwriter, risk control services and a variety of specialists. As opposed to contacting a hotline for every inquiry, you have a team committed to profitably growing your agency.

[H2] The ERIE-Agent Relationship
A good insurance agent knows more than how to sell an insurance policy. Our agents have a customer-first focus. That means they understand their customers’ needs and potential risks, and take the time to explain the coverage options.
As an ERIE Agent, you’ll also manage your own business, meet sales goals and provide quality customer service. Keep in mind that you’ll need current insurance licenses (if you don’t already have them) and a detailed business plan.Personable
