Integrity
At Tidewater, we strive to have integrity in everything we do from day-to-day office tasks, to focusing on agent support, to being there to answer questions and solve problems.
Our Core Values
Tidewater Management Group is an Integrity partner with a dynamic, trustworthy support staff that works with agents throughout the nation. We empower our teams to perform with a sense of polished professionalism you won’t find anywhere else.
We value honesty, transparency and authenticity because that’s how you build trust. We aren’t flashy, ostentatious, or overly ‘salesy,’ instead we’re professional, respectful, and kind. We’re a dynamic group of young, energetic, and motivated entrepreneurs focused on providing you the high-quality, personalized support you need to succeed. Supporting excellence.
Family
Everyone that walks into our office feels the warmth of our connections. We truly feel like family and not just co-workers. We were there for each other just like we’re there for our agents. Our family extends much farther then the walls of our office all the way across the country, anywhere we have agents.
Service
It is so important to give back. At Tidewater, one of our favorite things to do is volunteer to serve. From going to the food bank to collecting and donating canned goods, to donating toys to local children’s hospitals, we hope we can make a small difference.
Respect
Respect is an important value to hold when creating and maintaining lasting connections. Mutual respect between us at Tidewater and our carriers as well as between us and our agents is something you can count on.
Partnership
Partnership is at the core of Tidewater. Without the partnership with all of our agents as well as our partnership with Integrity, we would not be where we are today.
We partner with agents nationwide in 49 states.

From the moment I spoke with Mike and Janna at Tidewater, they have treated me like family. They have gone above and beyond to help me grow my business and educate me not only about the marketing aspects but also the contractual side of the industry. For that, I am extremely grateful. Tidewater is simply the best FMO out there, and I would recommend all of my fellow agents to reach out to them for assistance.

The entire Tidewater team has been great to work with and very supportive. If you’re an agent looking for a FMO to partner with, you should strongly consider Tidewater Management Group.

Couldn’t be more pleased with my partnership with TMG. Everyone at the Raleigh office is more than happy to offer their guidance and support through any obstacle I may come across. They have provided so much training through their website and social media accounts. They’ve reached out during crucial enrollment periods offering a helping hand if needed as well as throwing some amazing leads my way. Thanks TMG family!!
