The reason is simple. The more agents know about your life and the things you value most, the more they can educate you on the best choice for your insurance portfolio.
For example, are you traveling more frequently? Did you get married this year? Or have a baby? If you are already a parent, has your child gotten their driver’s license or gone off to college? Are you ready to up or downsize your home? Did you move? Have you purchased any fun toys, like a boat or snowmobile? Did your business grow?
Any events that occurred during 2017 could have an effect on your insurance. Below is a list of questions related to your home, auto and business insurance that are designed to start a conversation.
If you own a CAR…

• A teenager is learning to drive for the first time.
• Your teen driver has a GPA of 3.0 or above.

• You sold an automobile to a family member.
• Someone in your family took a defensive driving course.

• Is someone in your home traveling more frequently?
