Independent Insurance Agents Are Like Handshakes

Whether you love or hate digital technology, you have to admit that it makes our lives easier. Today, we can sign documents online and even work with people across the country whom we’ve never met in person.

Convenience and speed are great for some things, but what about personal connection? When you’re making important financial decisions for you and your family, there’s nothing like an informative, in-person meeting that concludes with a handshake.

That handshake says everything without saying a word. It symbolizes partnership, understanding and trust. It instills confidence and puts your mind at ease.

A Trusted Choice® Independent Insurance Agent offers you the best of both worlds. Even if you’re happy signing your insurance documents online, your personal Trusted Choice agent is there for you, ready to shake your hand in person. And there are so many benefits to having a real business relationship with a real person, rather than an online chat box.

Experts Who Care

The best and worst part about life is that things change. For example, you could risk a lifetime’s worth of accumulated assets should events take an unpredictable turn.

It’s during those times of transition or hardship that a personal touch is most important. When you shake the hand of your Trusted Choice agent, you’re partnering with a financial advisor, a fellow community member, and someone who likely will become a friend. That partnership means your independent agent will be there to offer expert advice and solutions as your life changes. Navigating the world of insurance is no easy task on your own, but you’ll have an ally in your corner walking you through the entire way, simplifying the process.

 Your Trusted Choice agent will help you figure out the next steps and offer support where needed. Or a word of thanks or congratulations. Because that’s what partners do.

What Do You Need? How Do You Get It?

Everyone is different, and every family is unique. When it comes to insurance, there is no one-size-fits-all solution. An independent insurance agent understands how to assess your insurance needs. After a session of brief, but incisive questions, your Trusted Choice agent will gain the critical insights and information to offer tailored coverage options that are appropriate for you and your family. Because independent agents usually live in or near your own community, their knowledge is both in-depth and local. In fact, they may know what you should consider before you do.

 Your Trusted Choice agent will spend the time necessary to understand all of your concerns, worries, goals and hopes. Whether you choose to work with them in person, over the phone, or through email, you’ll definitely feel a sense of relief knowing that you’ve been heard and that the things that matter most to you are protected.

  Perfect Combination

What lies ahead for you? Retirement? A career pivot? Some part-time philanthropic work? More travel? It’s exciting to think about the possibilities. Over the years, you've worked hard to build toward the future, planning that your needs will be covered with extra room for fun. If you’re like most of us, you look forward to having extra time and flexibility in your schedule. Finally, you'll get to experience alarm-clock-free mornings, enjoy your favorite hobbies, or visit with friends and family. Or launch a new part-time business. Or help out in your community. The last thing you want to do is spend your hard-earned time and money trying to sort out insurance.

But at this stage in life, insurance is absolutely critical. Don’t leave it up to chance. With a Trusted Choice agent on your team, you can trust that you've got the right coverage at the right price to fit your life. Independent agents have the time and expertise to evaluate all the choices and get you a competitive rate that fits your budget.

Focus on the things that matter most in your life. Shake the hand of your Trusted Choice Independent Insurance Agent.
