Corporate Insurance Solutions

What Corporate Insurance Solutions does

Corporate Insurance Solutions, LLC is a privately held, independent insurance agency headquartered in Scottsdale, Arizona, with regional offices in Santa Ana, California and Nevada. Founded by Seth A. Miller, CPCU, the firm serves businesses, families, and individuals across the Southwest United States through an advisor-led brokerage model. Its product portfolio spans commercial lines (BOP, general liability, commercial property, commercial auto, workers' compensation, umbrella, professional liability, cyber liability, EPLI, D&O, crime, inland marine), industry-specific programs (construction, manufacturing, wholesale/retail trade, transportation/motor carrier, and social services), employee benefits (group health, level-funded plans, ancillary and voluntary benefits, Section 125, and ACA/ERISA/COBRA compliance), personal lines (homeowners, auto, motorcycle, renters, condo, umbrella, life, health, dental, vision, disability, and specialty coverages), and life insurance.

The company operates without proprietary technology, instead leveraging third-party platforms — Zywave (exclusive client access for risk management and HR compliance), Billy Certificate Management (construction certificate tracking), Canopy (insurance data import), and insurer-branded portals such as InsurLink by Vertafore — to support service delivery. There is no proprietary app, API, or AI capability. The technology strategy is partner-dependent and focused on extending the agency's value-added services rather than building internal IP.

Corporate Insurance Solutions earns revenue through insurance placement commissions paid by carriers on bound and renewed policies across all lines of coverage. Pricing is individualized per client risk profile with no public rate cards or self-serve tiered offerings. Distribution is entirely direct and advisor-led, with no digital self-serve channel, marketplace listing, or product-led growth motion. The firm markets primarily through its corporate website, which functions as both an educational resource and consultation request portal, with no disclosed social media, paid advertising, or content marketing programs. The company is founder-owned with no external institutional investment, no disclosed funding rounds, and no M&A activity.

Expansion highlights6 records

Others

• Acuity Insurance: A-rated regional carrier that CIS accesses through its multi-carrier network. While a carrier rather than an agency, Acuity is a key SHM relationship and previously employed CIS's founder, making it a relevant market-access peer.

Broad incumbents

• Brown & Brown: National insurance brokerage with a strong regional agency model serving commercial and personal lines. Operates comparable advisor-led commercial brokerage units and competes for the same Southwest mid-market clients as CIS.
• Arthur J. Gallagher: Major global insurance brokerage with extensive retail and wholesale operations across the US. Competes for mid-market commercial accounts and offers overlapping commercial lines, benefits, and risk management services.
• Aon: Global insurance and reinsurance brokerage competing for mid-market and enterprise commercial accounts across the Southwest. Comparable in product breadth but operates at materially larger scale than CIS.
• Marsh McLennan: Global insurance brokerage and risk advisory firm. Represents the upper-end incumbent CIS competes against for larger Southwest commercial accounts as those clients scale.
• USI Insurance Services: Mid-to-large US insurance brokerage with strong employee benefits and commercial property/casualty practices. Comparable to CIS in combining benefits advisory with commercial placement for middle-market accounts.
• NFP: Large national insurance broker and advisory firm offering commercial, personal, and benefits solutions across the US. Comparable to CIS in product breadth and employee benefits focus, but with significantly larger scale and acquisition-driven growth model.
• Hub International: Large global insurance brokerage with significant US regional operations including the Southwest. Overlaps with CIS in commercial property/casualty, transportation, and employee benefits brokerage.

Direct peers

• Heffernan Insurance Brokers: Independent insurance brokerage headquartered in California with multi-state operations serving commercial and personal lines through advisor-led engagement. Closest direct peer given comparable regional independent brokerage model, multi-carrier access, and integrated commercial/personal/benefits offerings.
• Leavitt Group: Regional independent insurance agency network operating across the Western US with commercial, personal, and employee benefits practices. Comparable as a multi-office independent agency serving commercial middle-market accounts with carrier-agnostic placement.
