Why Client Retention Matters In Insurance
Client retention rates reveal far more about an insurance agency than marketing claims ever could. Industry research shows that winning a new insurance customer costs approximately 5 times as much as retaining an existing one. High retention demonstrates consistent value delivery and client satisfaction.
Harper's exceptional client retention stems from clients genuinely valuing our service. They aren't locked into contracts or trapped by switching costs. They choose to remain with Harper year after year because we consistently deliver superior results.
Traditional insurance brokers struggle to maintain relationships as clients get passed between different account managers and underwriters. Harper eliminates this frustration by serving as your dedicated agency throughout your entire relationship. You work with the same team from initial quote through policy renewals and any claims that arise.
Our retention rate also reflects the quality of our carrier partnerships. We don't place clients with substandard insurers offering cheap premiums that disappear at the first claim. Every carrier in our network maintains AAA ratings and a proven track record of paying claims fairly and promptly.

How Harper's AI Platform Delivers Better Results
Technology fundamentally transforms how Harper delivers insurance services. Our AI-powered platform doesn't replace human expertise; it enhances our ability to serve you more effectively. The combination of advanced technology and experienced insurance professionals creates superior outcomes.
Traditional insurance brokers rely on manual processes that consume time and create delays. Gathering information, requesting quotes, reviewing options, and binding coverage typically takes weeks. Harper's platform reduces this timeline by 80-90% through intelligent automation.
Our AI analyzes your business information and instantly matches you with the most appropriate carriers from our 200+ market partnerships. The system considers factors like industry type, revenue, location, coverage needs, and claims history. This data-driven matching produces more accurate quotes and better coverage recommendations.
How Our Platform Works:
- Instant Risk Assessment - Our AI evaluates your business profile and identifies potential exposures requiring coverage. The system considers industry-specific risks that generalist brokers might overlook.
- Smart Carrier Matching - The platform analyzes which carriers in our network offer the best coverage and pricing for your specific risk profile. We present only relevant options rather than overwhelming you with choices.
- Automated Quote Generation - Our technology streamlines the quote request process across multiple carriers simultaneously. You receive competitive quotes in minutes rather than waiting days for responses.
- Seamless Documentation - The platform automatically handles policy documentation, certificates of insurance, and renewal notices. You access everything through our secure client portal.
- Continuous Optimization - Our AI learns from every interaction, continuously improving recommendations and identifying cost-saving opportunities for your specific situation.
This technological advantage doesn't mean you lose personal service. Harper's team remains available to answer questions, explain coverage options, and provide expert guidance throughout your relationship with us.

The Harper Advantage: Smarter, Faster, Cheaper
Harper's unique approach delivers three critical advantages that traditional insurance brokers simply cannot match: smarter recommendations through data analysis, faster processing through automation, and lower costs through operational efficiency.
Smarter Insurance Decisions
Our platform analyzes comprehensive data to identify patterns and optimize recommendations. This extensive analysis reveals coverage gaps, pricing opportunities, and risk management strategies that benefit your specific situation. Traditional brokers rely primarily on individual experience rather than comprehensive data insights.
We match you with carriers that specifically want your type of business. Rather than approaching every carrier in hopes of quotes, our AI identifies which insurers in our 200+ market network actively seek businesses like yours. This targeted approach produces better terms and more competitive pricing.
Faster Coverage Binding
Time matters when securing business insurance. Whether you're starting a new venture, expanding operations, or approaching a policy renewal deadline, delays create stress and potential coverage gaps. Harper's platform reduces quote-to-underwriting time by 80-90% compared to traditional brokers.
You receive multiple competitive quotes within minutes rather than waiting days or weeks. Our technology handles the administrative tasks that consume time in traditional brokerage models. This efficiency means you make informed coverage decisions faster and get back to running your business.
Lower Insurance Costs
AI automation significantly reduces our operational expenses compared to traditional insurance brokers. We pass these savings directly to our clients through competitive premiums and reduced fees. You receive enterprise-level service at prices that work for businesses of all sizes.
Our extensive carrier network creates competition for your business. When 200+ insurance markets know we can easily move your coverage to a competitor, they sharpen their pencils on pricing and terms. This competitive dynamic consistently benefits our clients.
Different Coverage Needs, Same Exceptional Service
Harper serves businesses with varying insurance requirements, from simple general liability policies to complex multi-location programs. Our platform and team adapt to your specific needs regardless of size or complexity.

Our platform makes securing the right insurance simple and fast, even if this is your first time purchasing business coverage.

Our team reviews your current program, identifies potential improvements, and delivers proposals that typically reduce costs while maintaining or enhancing protection. We respect your time with efficient processes and clear communication.
Why Harper's Carrier Partnerships Matter
Access to quality insurance carriers makes the difference between adequate coverage and truly comprehensive protection. Harper maintains relationships with over 200 insurance markets specifically because we refuse to limit your options based on what's convenient for us.
Traditional insurance agencies often work with only a few preferred carriers. These limited relationships create conflicts of interest where brokers recommend coverage based on what earns them the highest commissions rather than what serves your best interests. Harper eliminates this conflict entirely.
Our carrier partnerships span the entire insurance marketplace, from large national carriers to specialized regional insurers and niche market providers. This diversity ensures we can place virtually any risk profile with appropriate coverage at competitive rates.
Our Carrier Network Includes:
- National carriers with a broad appetite and competitive pricing
- Specialty insurers focusing on specific industries or coverage types
- Regional carriers with deep local market knowledge
- Excess and surplus lines carriers for hard-to-place risks
- Admitted carriers for standard risks requiring state guaranty fund protection
Every carrier in our network maintains AAA financial strength ratings. We verify this rating continuously and immediately remove any carrier whose financial stability deteriorates. Your coverage is only as good as the insurer's ability to pay claims when they occur.
