The Associate Agent Program provides business professionals seeking an entrepreneurial startup opportunity with access to a 24-month business support program and a nationally recognized brand. You will have the opportunity to work with representatives of the Companies who can help you develop additional skillsets you can leverage in your business. In addition to learning from experienced industry professionals, Associate Agents will have access to the award-winning University of Farmers® training program, which includes resources designed to help enhance knowledge and introduce tools that may help the Associate Agent grow as a business owner. If an Associate Agent meets all applicable eligibility requirements, they will have an additional agent appointment opportunity, if such an opportunity is available.
You will work out of your own, fully branded Farmers Insurance Office in our University Place District Office. You will receive ALL New Business Commissions you write as well as ALL the renewal commissions those policies generate when they do renew.
To graduate the program, Associate Agents will have 24 months, beginning on their appointment date as an Associate Agent, to complete all eligibility requirements in place at the time to become appointed under an Agent Appointment Agreement, which may change from time to time in the Companies’ sole discretion. The Companies may communicate the applicable eligibility requirements or any changes to such requirements through bulletins, email or other media.
An Associate Agent seeking appointment under an Agent Appointment Agreement must meet the following minimum criteria to be eligible for appointment consideration:
• Active property, casualty, life and health licenses.
• Achieve $250,000 in Cumulative New Business Gross Folio Premium (GFP) within 24 months after their appointment date as an Associate Agent. The premium must be written in the Associate Agent’s producer code. Eligible New Business GFP is capped at $5,000 per policy and excludes CEA, Flood, and Kraft Lake® business. Note: If an Associate Agent is seeking appointment as a Retail agent, the Cumulative New Business GFP target will be lowered to $180,000.
Upon graduation, the Associate may transition to any other Entry-point (Retail West, Acquisition or SEED) with any capital requirements listed waived because of their participation and graduation from the program. You may also be eligible for financing an Acquisition Book, if available, thru our Farmers Federal Credit Union.
*In addition, approximately 5 months after graduating and starting their selected full-time entry point, Farmers will pay an additional bonus up to 30K!!!
