Why an Independent Insurance Agency?
When you go shopping for something complex and
important, where do you like to buy?
- From a person who sells only one brand?
- From a telephone representative who sells
only one brand?
- From a knowledgeable expert in your local
community who understands and sells many different brands, and can help you
find the best combination of price and value for your individual needs?
Many people don't realize there are big
differences in insurance agencies. When they buy insurance, they are choosing
one of these three options.
1. Captive Insurance Agents work for just
one company and sell only one brand.
2. Telephone Representatives do the same,
and sell "at a distance" over the telephone.
3. Independent Insurance Agents
are vested members of your local community. They represent an average of eight
different insurance companies. They can compare the coverages and prices offered
by these firms to find you the best possible value - the best combination of
coverage and price for your individual circumstances. They do business
face-to-face and are there for you, as your advocate, in time of need.

prices because your agent can compare insurance coverage from an average of
