Why ISG United
Built on partnership, not control.
Most aggregators are built to capture agents. ISG United was built by an agent, for agents. Here is what that means in practice.
The Comparison
ISG United vs. traditional aggregators, clusters, and MGA franchises.
This table is the entire pitch in one scroll. Read it slowly.

| Commission structure | 25% to 50% split, forever | 100% of commissions go directly to your agency |

Our Commitments
Six commitments we put in writing.
01
No upfront fees. Ever.
Every dollar you spend with ISG goes toward growing your agency, not paying for the privilege of being here.
02
100% commissions, direct deposit.
Your carriers pay you directly. In most situations we don't touch, split, or override your commission.
03
Your agency name, on everything.
Your office door, your business cards, your marketing materials, your book. All you.
04
Profit sharing, shared.
When the collective book earns carrier bonuses, we distribute them to the agencies that produced the premium.
05
A contract you can actually read.
Not thirty pages of fine print. You can read it in ten minutes and know exactly what you're signing.
06
Transparent leadership.
Our team answers their own phones. No middle layer. No gatekeepers.
Why We Do It This Way
The greed factor was built in. So we built the alternative.
11 years
Captive.
Someone else's name on the door, someone else's rules on the wall.
The exit
Independent, sort of.
The aggregator took a piece of everything we built. Independence with an asterisk.
2016
We built it ourselves.
The program we wished had existed. Run the same way today: on mutual partnership, not greed.
Built on partnership, not control. That sentence is the whole company.
