Why Choose an Independent Agent

Some people think it doesn’t really matter where they buy their insurance. But this misconception could be costing them money, service and protection. Buying insurance isn’t like buying groceries. Insurance is an important safety net for a family, a car, a home, or a business. Don’t treat the purchase lightly!
There is a difference in where you buy your protection. Many people don’t realize there are three sources for insurance:

• Independent Insurance Agents and Brokers — represent many insurance companies and research these firms to find you the best combination of price, coverage, and service to meet your needs and expectations.
• Captive Agents — sell the insurance for only one company.
• Telephone Representatives — offer insurance for one company and only on the telephone.

When you stop to think about it… why wouldn’t you choose the agent who can give you the most choices?
