Smart Choice Named an Inc. Power Partner Award Winner

Smart Choice is the only insurance network recognized as a company devoted to providing agencies with the tools and resources they need to start, run, and grow their businesses.  

GREENSBORO, NC—October 22, 2024— Smart Choice® has been named an Inc. Power Partner award winner in the Insurance category and is the only insurance network to be recognized. This year’s list recognizes Smart Choice among 359 companies in marketing and advertising, health and wellness, financial services, legal, logistics, public relations, and productivity, as well as other critical areas of business. This is the 3rd consecutive Inc. Power Partner award for Smart Choice. 

“When independent agencies are interested in growing their businesses and serving their customers with broad coverage options and competitive pricing, they typically partner with a network,” said Carol Drake, senior VP of personal lines at Smart Choice. “Having 10,000 agencies in our network translates into higher commissions, greater profit sharing and access to over 100 carriers.” 

Every company on the Inc. Power Partner award list received top marks from clients for being instrumental in helping leadership navigate the dynamic world of startups. These B2B partners support entrepreneurs across various facets of the business, including hiring, compliance, infrastructure development, cloud migration, fundraising, etc., allowing founders to focus on their core missions.  

“This is our definitive listing of vendors and suppliers who have demonstrated excellence in serving small and midsize customers,” says Inc. editor in chief Mike Hofman. “As part of the vetting process, our team of editors, researchers and reporters gathered information on companies’ products and services, assessed their reputation as captured in online comments and forums, and collected customer testimonials to ensure that the sales pitch matches the actual client experience. In every case, we spoke to company leaders who were happy to attest to a vendor’s genuine commitment to a mutually beneficial business partnership. We’re happy to be the conduit for that positive word of mouth.”
