Brightway Insurance Co-Founders are among Florida's most influential executives
JACKSONVILLE, Fla., Oct. 27, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Brightway Insurance Co-Founders and brothers, David and Michael Miller, are among the state's most influential leaders recognized in Florida Trend magazine's Florida 500 publication. The magazine selects executives for its annual Florida 500 list based on extensive contacts in regional business circles, interviews and research.
"David and I are honored and humbled to receive this recognition from Florida Trend," said Michael Miller, who is the President and CEO of Brightway. "When we set out on the journey that led us to establish Brightway in 2008, we looked at what the marketplace offered consumers and asked, "'What should be?'"
He continued, "From there, we developed a model that provides consumers what they want—more choice of top-rated insurance brands and expert counsel from a local Insurance Agent—and that empowers Agents with all-encompassing support so they can focus on their customers and building their business. Our Win, Win, Win operating mandate keeps everyone in the business financially aligned with our business partners and ensures everything we do must be a win for customers, a win for franchisees and a win for the company. That clarity coupled with the amazing work of our people have been the secret sauce to our growth and success."
Some of the recent milestones demonstrating their company's continued growth and success are:
- Celebrating 13 years in business in August
- Reaching $800 million in annualized written premium in May
- Surpassing 300 franchise stores in May
- Adding the 26th state to the Brightway franchise map
In addition to launching a successful company that has created nearly 1,300 jobs, the Millers are a passionate about making the Jacksonville community a great place to work, live and play.
