Steve Trout of Rockledge, Fla., dubbed a Rockstar Franchisee by Franchise Business Review

"Steve Trout has done a phenomenal job of leveraging the Brightway model to grow his business into one of the largest and most successful agencies in our system today," said Brightway Chairman and Co-Founder, Michael Miller. "Our franchise model empowers owners like Steve to create their own destiny, but with the support of hundreds of insurance professionals dedicated to his success."

"There are so many fantastic success stories out there; it was painful to narrow our list down to just 50 Rockstar Franchisees," said Michelle Rowan, President of Franchise Business Review. "There were hundreds of deserving business owners. In the end, we picked 50 that really stood out. Franchisees that not only excel in their businesses, but provide strong leadership within their franchise organizations and their local communities."

Brightway agencies enjoy a suite of support in customer service, carrier relationships, marketing, accounting and technology. As a result, they consistently outsell other insurance agencies three-to-one.*

"I grew up in Brevard County, Fla., where my store is located, so it's truly rewarding to own a successful business based on trust earned by helping my friends and neighbors get the best coverage to protect their families' financial futures," said Trout. "Brightway provides tremendous support that allows my team to focus on our customers and growing the business."

Trout opened his Brightway agency in July 2011, and has built his team to nine-strong, ranking among Brightway's 25 percent top-producing franchises. He has grown his business to nearly $11 million in annualized written premium and in the past two years, he grew his book of business by 35 percent.
