Our Philosophy

Be an extraordinary person. Someone who goes the extra mile. Someone who makes decisions carefully and deliberately. Someone who strives for the very best in everything they do. Be confident in what you have to say and the stories you have to tell. Because you are extraordinary. And you prove it every day by the choices you make and the experiences you create.

Anyone can purchase insurance. But it takes an extraordinary person to purchase insurance that truly aligns to their individual needs. You don’t fit into a box. And neither do we. Together, we can Be Extraordinary.

Our customers are unique in the way they take pride in making responsible choices. We connect them with the best coverage at the most cost-effective prices—never sacrificing quality for price. We call it savings with integrity.

A little about ourselves

With offices located in Melbourne and Orlando, Florida, the team at Erb and Young works with clients all across the state to ensure they have the coverage they need for their specific situations. All of our clients are unique and our experienced agents take the time to become familiar with clients to present customized insurance options. Whether it’s Home Insurance, Flood Insurance, Car Insurance or Boat Insurance, Erb and Young can determine the perfect plan at an affordable price. Finding the appropriate insurance on your own is no easy task, but our team is here to do the hard part for you so you can be reassured that whichever plan you choose, you are covered.

What our clients are saying...

Karen Joss

In my 20 years of commercial property management I have never experienced the kind of excellent service that Erb and Young has provided to me over the past few years. There has been no hurdle thrown at them that they couldn’t handle.

Brett Young

President & CEO

Brett, a fishing enthusiast and self-proclaimed insurance nerd, feels most at home when he is on the water with his wife, Teeci and their 4-year-old son. He considers himself a team builder and has enjoyed developing the Erb and Young team alongside his brother, Taylor, and their partner and friend Rod.

Rod Erb

Chief Marketing Officer

Rod, a former professional golfer and Michigan native, started Erb and Young 7 years ago with his passion for sales and professional development. Outside of his work, raising his two kids with his wife Susan has been the most humbling and rewarding accomplishment of his life.

Taylor Young

Chief Operating Officer

Taylor, a UCF basketball grad and Florida native, enjoys boating and weekends outdoors with his wife Pinky and their two long-haired dachshunds, Yeti and Reese. He believes in the power of long-term relationships and that happy employees create a better customer experience.

Jessica LaPlante

Vice President of Relationship Management

Born and raised in Melbourne, FL, I have over 15 years of experience in the insurance industry, specializing in relationship management, team leadership, and delivering top-tier client service.

Beyond the conference room, I’m a mentor, problem-solver, and culture-builder—passionate about developing talent and creating opportunities for growth. Insurance isn’t just my career; it’s a family affair, with two of my daughters working alongside me in the industry. At home, I juggle life as a proud wife and mother of four daughters (three of them teenagers—so I’m no stranger to negotiation and crisis management).

When I’m not leading teams or strategizing client solutions, you’ll find me out on the water—boating is my favorite escape. Whether it’s strengthening client relationships, empowering my team, or shaping the next generation of insurance professionals, I’m committed to making an impact.

Matt Main

Vice President of Agency Distribution

Experienced Insurance and Risk Sales Agent with over 20 years of expertise across various insurance fields, programs, and plans. A results-driven sales coach with a passion for continuous learning, consistently exceeding goals and client expectations.

Eric Atsma

Vice President of Marketing and Sales

As a purpose-driven sales leader, I thrive on team success and the positive impact we create together. My passion lies in building Florida’s leading insurance marketing and sales team while inspiring others to surpass their own expectations.

I believe in the power of purpose—helping individuals grow, expand their networks, and cultivate strong, lasting relationships. Every connection is an opportunity to drive meaningful success, and I approach each interaction with a commitment to adding value.

My mission is to push boundaries, foster innovation, and lead a team that redefines industry standards. Let’s connect and explore how we can collaborate for growth and success.

Amanda Trammell

Executive Director

Born and raised on Florida’s Space Coast, Amanda is a proud mom of four, finding her greatest joy in watching her children grow and thrive—especially on the field. With a passion for excellence and a heart for others, she thrives in creating meaningful connections, bringing out the best in people, and making those around her feel valued and uplifted.

Whether supporting her team or her family, she leads with care, energy, and a drive for high performance, always striving to bring joy to those she serves.
