Harper Partners

Turn the commercial clients you can't write into income.

Send us the commercial business you can't place and keep 50% of the commission on everything we bind. A real partnership — not a lead sale.

You send the commercial you can't write.
Every commercial ask you turn away is commission gone. A forwarded email keeps it — and you stop saying “sorry, we can't help you.”
You keep 50% of the commission.
On every commercial line Harper writes and binds from your referral. You never touch the account after the forward.
How It Works

A dead end becomes a payday.

For small personal & auto brokerages: send us the commercial walk-ins you can't serve. When Harper writes and binds the business, you earn a share of the commission — backed by the brokerage that actually places the coverage.

STEP 01

Forward the client you can't write

A commercial walk-in you can't place? Forward the email. That's the whole ask — no portals, no paperwork, no new workflow.

STEP 02

Harper writes and binds it

We quote, place, and service across every commercial line — GL, property, workers' comp, commercial auto, and more. White-glove placement; your client is in expert hands, start to finish.

STEP 03

You get paid when we bind

Once Harper binds the coverage, you earn 50% of the commission — tracked per referral and paid 60 days after the account settles. A check for business you were turning away.

A Real Partnership

Keep 50%. Send nothing but a forward.

Small brokerages lose face telling a commercial client “we can't help you” — with nowhere good to send them. Harper Partners turns those dead ends into income: forward the account, we place and service it, and you earn a share of the commission on everything we bind.

Common Questions

FAQs

Do I need a commercial license?
Yes. This program is open to licensed agents only — and you must be licensed in the state where the business is being written. Commission can only be shared with an appropriately licensed partner.
Which commercial lines can I send?
All of them. General liability, property, workers' comp, commercial auto, BOPs, professional and management liability — every commercial line, not just the hard-to-place risks. If a walk-in needs commercial coverage you don't write, forward it.
Do I have to service the account?
No. Once you forward the client, Harper takes it from there — quoting, binding, servicing, renewals, and claims. There's no portal to learn and no ongoing work on your end.
Who owns the account?
Harper does. Referred commercial accounts belong to Harper. You earn a share of the commission, but you do not own the account or the book of business, and you hold no servicing rights or obligations over it.
How and when do I get paid?
You earn 50% of the commission on business Harper binds from your referral, tracked per partner. Payouts are made 60 days after the account settles. Commission is earned only while a policy stays in force — if an account cancels or goes unpaid, the corresponding commission is reconciled and charged back.
What does it cost to join?
Nothing. There's no fee to join — you don't pay us anything. You earn only when Harper binds business from a client you forwarded.
