About Us

How We Came to Be

Stuart Ganis started his career as a producer in 1989 and later founded an Independent Agency which grew to 20 million in premium volume within 3.5 years. After being approached by a potential buyer, Stuart realized that there were no industry resources available to smaller agencies that larger agencies have leveraged for decades. After the agency’s sale, Ganis launched a consulting firm serving local insurance agents in the areas of sales, marketing, operations, and M&A advisory services with emphasis on seller representation. Around 2015 our firm changed its focus to seller representation and agency valuations.

What We Do

Since 2007, Stuart Ganis has participated in over 125 M&A transactions including; sell side representation, suymmary valuations, buy-side representation and agency integration.

We frequently speak at industry events and have been featured in several publications, including Leads Council, Property Casualty 360, Insurance Journal, and many others.
