Discover how peer intelligence helps independent insurance agencies grow faster, improve profitability, and make better decisions through ISU Steadfast.
ISU Steadfast helps established independent insurance agencies strengthen market access, improve performance, and build long-term value through the scale, relationships, and infrastructure of one of the largest agency networks in the United States.
Our members remain independent while gaining access to carrier relationships, technology, data, peer collaboration, and resources designed to support long-term growth.
Most agencies don't join a network to give something up. They join to gain access to markets, technology, relationships, and support that would otherwise require scale they have not yet built.
ISU Steadfast is designed for agencies that want to continue growing, strengthening their operations, and planning for the future while maintaining ownership and control of their business.

Our recent success is due, in large part, to our ISU Steadfast membership and greater carrier access through its marketplace. Immediately we have been able to secure better terms and pricing for our clients, place business we would not have been able to without membership and made it possible to win new clients.
Thanks again for the great opportunity to join the ISU Steadfast community. It has spurred us on to new levels of growth that would not have been achieved otherwise and we look forward to our years of partnership ahead!

At our agency, it is about serving our clients and taking care of them. When we see a deposit of commission, we know we are saving customers more than making revenue and we value that ISU Steadfast allow us to do that.
With ISU Steadfast we have the markets and access that allows us to serve our clients in other states, and that’s a game changer.

As a newer, boutique agency focused on the middle market, most aggregators couldn’t get their heads around what we’re building. ISU Steadfast’s professionalism, longevity, and scale set them apart from other networks that were either commission clubs for large agencies or raw appointment access for small agencies. It was clear that the team have built something different and know that ISU Steadfast are the best fit as we continue our growth, independently, over the next century.

All in all, the cost of membership is greatly outweighed by the Networks financial, industrial, and agency relationship benefits, it’s difficult to envision a future where the ISU Steadfast Agency Network is not a central hub for our agency’s success and perpetuation.
