WHY AN INDEPENDENT AGENT?

There is a difference in where you buy your protection. Many people don’t realize there are three sources for insurance:

• Captive Agents, who can sell you the insurance of only one company.
• Telephone Representatives, who can offer you the insurance of one company, and only on the telephone.
• Independent Insurance Agents, who represent a number of insurance companies, and research with these firms to find you the best combination of price, coverage, and service.

 

Your Independent Insurance Agent:

• Is a licensed professional with strong customer and community ties.
• Gives you excellent service and competitive prices because your agent can access the insurance coverage from more than one company.
• Unlike other agents, is not beholden to any one company; thus, you don’t need to change agencies as your insurance and service needs change.
• Assists you when you have a claim.
• Is your consultant working with you as you determine your needs?
• Offers you a choice of insurance plans and programs.
• Is a value hunter who looks after your pocketbook in finding the best combination of price, coverage, and service.
• Offers one-stop shopping for a full range of products-home, renters, auto, business, life, and health.
• Can periodically review your coverage to keep up with your changing insurance needs.
• Treats you like a person, not just another number.

There is a difference!
