Annual Base Increase

Your Base Grows With You.

Unlike most producer roles, your base salary at Jeff Zachary Insurance Agency isn't fixed. Every year, your base increases by the average count growth of your Auto, Fire, and Life production. No cap. No discretion. Pure math tied to your results.

The Formula
Applied annually at your 12-month and 24-month reviews.
(Auto Policy Count Growth % + Fire Policy Count Growth % + Life Policy Count Growth %) ÷ 3
= Average Growth % → Applied to Prior Base Salary
Example: You write 10% more Auto policies, 8% more Fire, and 12% more Life this year.
Average growth = (10 + 8 + 12) ÷ 3 = 10%.
Your $38,000 base increases by $3,800 to $41,800 — automatically, at your annual review.
