Partner with Indiana Big I The Big I Indiana serves Indiana’s independent insurance agents, developing programs and services designed to help member agencies achieve more collectively than they can individually. This commitment to help independent agents operate their businesses fairly and profitably is our mission.
As a Partner, your company will be able to support members of the Big I Indiana and build upon the initiatives that have served members for years. Now, more than ever, independent agents rely on the Big I for products and services that provide them a competitive edge, as well an unparalleled legislative and regulatory representation.
This program was created for companies, wholesalers and vendors that wish to gain exposure to Big I Indiana members and support the association on an ongoing basis. The foundations you will help build today will serve the independent agency community in Indiana tomorrow and beyond.
