PIA Welcomes New Sponsors

The National Association of Professional Insurance Agents (PIA) is pleased to announce the first group of insurance agents signing on as sponsors. These sponsors are supporting the association’s new program called Local Agents Serving Main Street America. This first group, according to PIA, is demonstrating “commitment to the success of the independent agency distribution system.”

This commitment, per PIA, will enable all of those that belong to the organization continued success. Their branding program, per the group, is an advertising campaign that will not cost their members any additional monies. It will spread across the nation, and will be in local publications for their members.

Several auto insurance agencies have signed on, such as AIG Agency Auto, Auto-Owners Insurance Company, MetLife Auto & Home, Motorists Insurance Group, State Auto Insurance Company, etc. PIA members will be able to pick from more than 251 advertisements to run locally.

The group says that since their purpose is to help their members increase their business; they set the price at free for the branding program. Their carrier partners will not pay anything either. They ask instead that they use their advertising dollars to support the PIA members.
