Division Manager: John Ruhlman
Recommended States to obtain Licenses
Obviously the more areas you can write business, the more opportunities you allow yourself. As a new agent considering adding additional licenses, you should know that there are key states that tend to have a greater return on investment than others, which is why we recommend focusing on them first.
​
That being said, John is licensed across the U.S., and can advise you well beyond this list as well. State licensing is easy to pick up, so do not stress about having a specific state if you stumble upon a lead that you are not currently active in.
Ohio
Texas
North Carolina
Arkansas
Missouri
