Meg Herman, located in Hilton Head Island, SC, worked at her family’s independent agency and years later continues to build a legacy that spans generations. She made the switch to Goosehead in 2018 because she was drawn to the company’s sales-focused model.

After being part of a family-owned independent agency, Meg knows how difficult it is to recruit and manage a service team, secure and maintain insurance appointments, audit commission income from multiple carriers, and leverage technology demands. Since she loves selling and solving problems for clients and referral partners, she’s glad she made the change that allows her to focus on the work she actually wants to do.

Goosehead’s unique model allows Meg to sell more month-to-month and scale by adding new staff—one of which is her daughter. She’s able to keep the family business alive because she knows that she’s poised to be the most responsive independent agency in her area, since she can provide resources for her clients that others can’t.

“You must love people and take enormous pride in creating successful partnerships in the community. The recurring revenue model is a beautiful thing if you’re willing to see the long view.” – Meg’s advice to entrepreneurs looking for a new opportunity.
