Our reputation says it all.

I had been reading Brightway’s marketing materials for years while working as a producer at a captive agency. I finally decided to look more closely at the Brightway opportunity when I realized that I’d gone as far as I could in that position. Now that I am operating my own agency in Tennessee, I can tell you that I regret wasting all of those years not offering more choice and expert consultation to my customers. I wished I had joined the Brightway family sooner. It was a big step, going from a producer to running my own business, but it’s the best decision I have ever made.

Tim Walters Brightway, The Walters Agency

Brightway delivers the support that allowed me to move to a new community and start an insurance agency from scratch. Once open, I spent my time networking and relationship building with professional referral sources in the greater Charlotte business community, a luxury unavailable at my previous agency.

Dimitri Apostle Brightway, The Dimitri J. Apostle Agency

Becoming a Brightway Agency Owner has been a very exciting, liberating, and wonderful experience thus far. My home life has drastically improved, and my insurance acumen increases every day; I couldn't be happier with my decision to join the Brightway system.

Mike Milano Brightway, The Milano Agency

The partnership that exists between my agency and Brightway is one that makes us very confident and optimistic about our long-term success. Brightway is committed to a very open style of communication and is genuinely concerned about issues that are brought to them by Agency Owners.
