I am having a very difficult time in obtain carrier's appointments for my wholesale bussiness in California. Does anyone know any carriers that are offer Contract Apointments in the state of California? Or a Wholesaler that is willing to do a double for a year or so?

New venture wholesaler or a seasoned wholesaler, it's always difficult to secure contact appointments unless you have a volume and/or are willing to do a bookroll. Also, I doubt that any of the other wholesalers would want to double broker as this may violate their existing contract or their terms of E & O. What are you trying to wholesale? Found a niche yet? Want to discuss some opportunities? Please contact me at bindscott@yahoo.com if you want my feedback.

I too am a Wholesaler, rather small operation, but I stay very busy with limited markets. The problem is that if my lead market declines I might as well decline due to lack of other markets. If there are other small wholesalers that basically specialize in a specific niche of P&C as I do, it might do us all some good to set up a private forum where we can offer advice to each other for all types of problems such as Tax filings, new Wholesale markets, etc. I also have 30 years experience and can usually help point you in some kind of direction. I specialize in only a few coverages, so I am always sending business to a friend. I think we can set up a free group on yahoogroups. If interested just send me an email and I will try to set it up. terryhornassocs@aol.com

Barrett Business Services is a Self-Insured PEO in California with competitive rates and the ability for the insured to receive up to 1/3 of their annual premium back each year in a rebate (minus the cost of claims). We do not require volume for an appointment. We normally work with retail agents since we need to go out and qualify each account we bring on, which frightens some wholesale agencies from being circumvented. We do honor our relationships however so if you want to start writing comp with us, call me. Just know that I will need to have my teams go out and meet each prospect.
