Franchise Insurance Agency, Inc.

What Franchise Insurance Agency, Inc. does

Franchise Insurance Agency, Inc. (dba Leavitt Group Midwest) is an Ohio-based independent insurance agency operating as a subsidiary of Leavitt Group Enterprises, a diversified insurance conglomerate. The firm serves individuals, families, and businesses across Ohio and the broader Midwest through multiple offices, distributing insurance products as a broker across multiple carriers. Its core offerings are organized into three primary segments: Business Insurance (commercial property, casualty, cyber, D&O, executive liability, inland marine, surety, small business packages, and risk management/captive solutions), Employee Benefits (group health, retirement, and expanded business solutions), and Personal Insurance (home/condo, auto, life, renters, flood, umbrella, and specialty recreational lines). The agency extends into at least nine industry verticals — agribusiness, construction, energy, food & beverage, manufacturing, nonprofit, real estate, restaurant, and technology — and offers adjacent financial advisory services through its Secure Path Financial Advisors sub-brand.

The firm earns revenue via insurance agency commissions from multiple carriers for policies placed, with customers able to obtain quotes across carriers to compare coverage and pricing. Distribution is sales-led, delivered through phone, email, and in-person consultations, augmented by a client portal supporting self-service quoting, payments, and claims management. Marketing is multi-channel, combining educational blog content, email newsletter, organic social (Facebook, LinkedIn), SEO, customer testimonials, and a structured referral program (a $10 Amazon gift card incentive). The proprietary technology asset is the Leavitt Risk Management Center — a web-based suite of safety and risk management tools providing policy management, claims tracking, and loss control functionality to business clients — accessed via an external "lossfreerx.com" URL, indicating it is likely a shared Leavitt Group platform rather than a Franchise Insurance–specific build.

Customer evidence is dominated by long-tenured SMB and personal-line clients (multiple testimonials cite 20–30 year relationships), with no enterprise logos or anchor accounts disclosed. The firm is privately held with no funding history, no disclosed revenue, and no headcount figures. Forward indicators — active hiring across remote/hybrid/in-office modes, a Future Agency Affiliation program, and continuous vertical deepening — suggest a moderate-growth, M&A-aware regional broker rather than a high-velocity venture-backed insurance tech.
