NS- What can I say... I worked in that segment of the industry for 10 years as an agent and as a Carrier manager (Managing over $100,000,000 in WP)
I loved that segment. It drives me crazy when a preferred agent thinks they are so much more elite because they write a $2,000 auto/home package when the NS agent is writing a $3,500 monoline Auto policy and making more money.
I have worked on the carrier side for Preferred and NS carriers and often times the NS carriers had better loss results/ lower expense ratios and subsequently more profit to share with their agents.
NS does not retain well. 50-60%. That is a reality! There are correct ways and incorrect ways of writing and servicing this segment of the industry in order to see profit. There are huge amounts of money to made in this segment if done correctly.
