This year has really forced most of us to think about what is important in our lives. If you're like me, my family is at the top of my list. And protecting them is my number one priority.

As an insurance agent, we are often asked, "When should I get life insurance?". Many clients think they are too young for a life insurance policy (not true), or that they are too old for a life insurance policy (also not true). If you want to protect your family and provide for them in the event that something happens to you, then NOW is the right time to start a life insurance policy. 

Erie Insurance sums it up perfectly: Planning ahead to secure the well-being of your family is more than a transaction: It's an act of love.

Are you in the process of purchasing a new home for you and your family? We know that there are a lot of nerves and excitement that come with making such a big decision! Not only that, but there is so much information to take in that sometimes it can be overwhelming.

While you've probably thought extensively about what you want in a home, how you are going to pay for it, what repairs you might need to make...have you thought about what insurance policies you are going to need? After all, your new home is most likely going to be your largest investment!

As your trusted insurance advisor, we believe that there are two major policies you will want to investigate.

We are excited to announce that our Charity of the Month for October, 2020 is Operation 143! For every referral we receive this month, $10 will be donated back to this amazing organization that gives backpacks filled food to qualifying children to help feed them over the weekend.

Black bean and quinoa salad is the perfect salad that holds up great in the refrigerator! Prepare it on Sunday and enjoy for lunches all week.  

I started my insurance agency from scratch in 2008.  Just me and more ideas than money.  Shortly after, an agent-friend of mine that became a mentor told me about a “Mastermind Group” that he was a member of.  They were a group of about 12 successful insurance agents from across the country.  They’d have monthly phone calls sharing ideas on everything related to our industry and running a business in general.  Beyond their conference calls, they’d also meet in person three to four times each year, in different cities - hosted by one of their members.
