The Big “I” Council for Best Practices helps independent agents and brokers boost productivity, increase sales and improve agency operations. Sponsors of the program are leading the charge to improve, grow, perpetuate and increase the value of the independent agency system. By supporting the Council for Best Practices, companies have access to the latest data from leading agencies and influence the future direction of the program. Sponsors are invited to education, event and networking opportunities.
In 2025, an elite group of Best Practices agencies was appointed following a nomination and data submission process. These agencies form the foundation for the 2025 comprehensive study and the 2026 and 2027 updates, ensuring benchmarking data remains current. The Council for Best Practices will meet in January 2027 alongside the Big “I” Winter Meeting to focus on education, marketing and strategic planning for the next three-year cycle, slated to begin in late 2027.
