what we can do for you!
THREE REASONS WHY CJ INSURANCE GROUP IS THE RIGHT FIT:
Contract – We’ve been told that our Independent Insurance Agent’s Contract is one of the best in the industry – in favor of Contractee. After reading through our contract and comparing it to others, you’ll see why!
Compensation – We are receiving some of the highest commission rates from our carrier companies, which we turn around and pay you, our Contractee. This is a cornerstone of growing your income and your agency. These carrier companies have various commission rates, currently ranging from 12% - 22%. The commissions are based on products, state, monoline vs. package, sub-standard vs. standard, etc.
Divorce – This may be a strange term to be using, but in this case, it pertains to the time, if or when a Contractee decides to leave CJ Insurance Group and take their book of business with them – Divorcing from us. As you will read, there is No Buy-Out Fee – If you decide to leave, you take your book-of-business with you – It’s that simple.
YOUR AGENCY OPPORTUNITY:
The goal of CJ Insurance Group is simple: Give quality agencies the tools they need to succeed and let them run their agency as they see fit. All agency owners have a different style, and we don’t believe that we always know best. What we do believe in strongly is that agents want to succeed and by allowing them to run their businesses in a way that compliments their styles and strengths, they will do just that.
We provide you the Tools, the Playbook, Training & EZLynx Comparative Rater (and the EZLynx Management System) to assist you to build your agency.

TESTIMONIALS
“Coming from a captive insurance company, this new opportunity to provide my clients with various options from the best carriers in the country was truly liberating. The opportunity to help each potential customer I come across is exciting and empowering and to earn an income that matches our hard work is second to none. The best career decision I could have made for myself and my family was to open my agency under the CJ Insurance Group Independent Agent opportunity!”
“The structure and guidance on effective processes facilitate the transition for captive agents into the independent world!”
“I can’t say enough about the CJ Insurance Group! I came from a captive agency, but the independent side is totally different. If it wasn’t for CJ Insurance Group helping us every step of the way, we wouldn’t be where we are today. Not only are they an amazing resource, but they truly want what’s best for our agency. I’ve never had the privilege to work with a group of people like this! I feel honored to be able to reach out to them with any questions our agency runs into. To take it one step further, it’s not just Cyrus who is there to help - it’s his whole team. Everyone on his team has their expertise and that’s what is so impressive about them. To anyone who has any concerns about going independent because of the unknown, I promise those concerns will be eliminated because of the help and support from CJ Insurance group!”

Cyrus Jaffery
FOUNDER
Cyrus Jaffery has been in the Insurance industry since 2013. He spent 7 years with State Farm Insurance and was one of the top agents in the country. Even with all his success, something was missing; He couldn’t leave a legacy behind. He also saw insurance agencies trending towards an independent model and knew he this was the future.
His goal was to run his own company without the restrictions of captive companies. He also knew that the conversion ratio would quadruple if you have many companies to work with. With all this in mind, the independent route was a ‘No-brainer’. CJ Insurance Group is one of the highest producing independent agencies in the country and he wants to use his model, systems, and processes to give opportunities to other insurance agents to run their own business.
Per Cyrus, “One of the biggest hurdles we faced when we became independent was the lack of ‘support’. By that, I mean knowing how to quote and maneuver through the various companies websites, etc. We were lost. That’s why we have live, one-on-one training available, and not online modules, for every Independent Agent, so they feel less vulnerable with the change.”

Lon Gray
INDEPENDENT AGENT LIAISON
My name is Lon Gray and my role is training new Independent Agents. When I first became an independent agent, I realized the learning curve and the time it took to become efficient was much longer compared to being a captive agent. That’s why I have made it my goal to make the transition to the Independent channel as smooth as possible with hands-on training and support.
I love to problem solve and find the most efficient ways to use systems. I have a beautiful wife and 2 daughters, you can see me spending time with them and training my German Shepherd on the weekends. I love sports, played college basketball, and have taken up golf as my favorite sport. I will facilitate training with our new Independent Agent’s and afterward, we can play 9 at your local course!
