The ERA Difference
Partner With ERA
Build on your strengths. We’ll power the rest. ERA partners with entrepreneurial agencies that want to scale without sacrificing independence. We provide the infrastructure-technology, market access, shared services, and purchasing power-so you can stay focused on what drives growth: your producers, your clients, and your community relationships. For agency owners looking for a full exit, rest assured – your agency will live on and experience continued success as part of the ERA family.
Resources That Elevate Your Agency
We invest in the capabilities that are hardest to build alone and most impactful at scale. With ERA, your team gains access to modern systems, top-tier markets, and expert support across the back office-freeing your producers to sell and your leaders to lead.
Technology That Works For You
Our technology stack streamlines end-to-end agency operations. From AMS/CRM integration and digital submission tools to analytics, automation, and client-facing portals, we remove friction from prospecting, placement, servicing, and renewals. The result is cleaner data, faster workflows, happier clients, and more selling time.
Expanded Market Access
Leverage ERA’s carrier relationships and program access to win more and win better. Our scale improves placement options, speeds up underwriting feedback, and enhances pricing leverage. We advocate for your submissions and support complex placements with experienced market-facing teams.
Your Legacy Continues
Your agency’s DNA is your advantage. You maintain operational control of your people, brand, and client experience. We partner through principles, not prescriptions-offering best practices and playbooks without one-size-fits-all mandates. If it makes you faster, better, or more profitable, we’ll help you implement it. If not, you decide.
