Q: What is an Insurance
Broker?
A: Insurance brokers are
licensed professionals who sell for various companies. We collect customer
information and submit it to a variety of companies on your behalf. We
then present you with insurance options that meet your needs. An insurance
broker works for you, not the insurance companies.
Q: Why do business with you
and not an exclusive agent?
A: Using
an insurance broker is very beneficial for most buyers. You have a much
better chance of finding the best deal or best coverage possible for your
unique needs because your broker is drawing on a large number of companies
on your behalf. In fact, he or she will be able to access certain
companies that only sell through brokers, giving you more choice than if
you contacted companies directly. Because he or she specializes in
insurance, they can negotiate on your behalf and present you with better
options and recommendations. They will also counsel you on what type of
coverage you need and what you don't, thus saving you money.
Q: What
is your professional experience in the industry?
A: I have over 22 years
of insurance experience in Minnesota and Wisconsin. I have exclusive
agency and claim center experience, and our Agency earned the Premier
Service Agency designation 15 years in a row. Please see our Broker Profiles
link on the right sidebar.
Q: Who
do I contact if I have billing or policy changes?
A: We handle all
billing and policy changes at our office.
No more 1-800-pls-wait.
Q: Who
would I contact if I have a claim?
A: We can set up the claim at our office
and assist you through the entire claim process.
Q: What if my rates go
up?
A: We can re-run your information in our
system to see if one of our more than 15 companies better fits your needs
at that time. You are not stuck with one company when your rates go up or
if you are not satisfied with your current company, you have more choices.
Q: Do
you provide annual reviews for your existing customers?
A: Yes,
we provide this service to interested customers.
Q: Are
you a local company or a national company?
A: We
are local. We have an office in your neighborhood and we employ people
from your East Metro community. Please see Driving Directions on right
sidebar.
Q: What companies do you
represent?
A: We represent over 15
different insurance companies. Please see Insurance Providers link on the
