our history

Milliken Agency Services was formed in 2017 by Matthew Milliken and began as "Mount Washington Valley Consulting", which pays homage to the White Mountains of NH, where Matthew lives. The focus of the business has always been emphasizing operational execution by optimizing technology and driving efficiency for clients.

Growing its client base and the staff to support this growth, with a back office team that has industry experience and works remotely, new services have been introduced like "Epic Admin". This allows Milliken Agency Services to work closer with its clients providing recurring value. This is critically important due to the difficulty agencies have in recruiting and retaining talent.

With the addition of Gary Milliken (Matt's father) to the leadership team in 2019, the company was re-branded to Milliken Agency Services, rounding out what we believe to be the best consulting duo in the industry. With the collective experience in the ownership and management of agencies, and the back office support of our team, Milliken Agency Services can provide operational assistance that is difficult to find elsewhere.
