Assistant roles for Insurance Agencies
Renewal, service, quoting-support, certificate and marketing roles for independent agencies, inside licensing rules. Every role is dedicated, on a customized schedule based on your needs and budget.
How dedicated assistants fit insurance agencies
Roles on this page:
Independent agencies juggle renewals, endorsements, certificates of insurance and new-business submissions across many carriers. Producers want to sell; account managers want fewer manual steps.
A remote assistant can handle the unlicensed service and data work. Anything that requires a license in the relevant state, such as advising on coverage, quoting to a client or binding, stays with licensed staff.

What these roles do not do
Clear boundaries protect you, your clients and your assistant. They are written into each scope of work.
Unlicensed assistants do not advise on coverage, quote rates to clients, bind or solicit where a license is required; state rules vary and the agency decides.
Licensed staff review coverage comparisons and endorsement changes.
Client data is protected under your agency's information security program and applicable state insurance data rules.
Outbound calling and texting follow TCPA and do-not-call rules set by the agency.
General information only, not legal, tax or compliance advice. Your compliance owner decides what applies to your business.
