Commissions are all about the same, except for workers comp which stinks for the work you have to put into it.
The big key is, finding a niche where you ALSO have a market happy to write it.Many carriers won't touch a hotel/motel.Many won't do gas stations.Pizza shops are too small, manufacturers can be high hazard.Printers are high fire hazard. Governmental entities are hard to place, and there's extreme competition, plus they get shopped out every year.
It's hard for someone ELSE to suggest a niche market that you can work in.What has worked for ME, is the video/televison production area. LOLDON'T ask me to share my markets with you!!You'll have to dig up your own, and build your OWN relationships with the underwriters.
