This week marks 20 Years since we opened our doors as a brand-new agency...
The official date was 9/1/06. The real estate market was booming, and our plan was simple: Open our office in this growing area and run it lean and mean as a husband and wife to minimize expenses as we grew. Seemed like a foolproof plan, UNTIL the plan came to screeching halt when Irma became pregnant with our twins and spent the next 7 months sick all day, every day 😭
With our plan out the window, the next several months presented numerous challenges (that's a huge understatement). There were some highs to help offset the lows, but as the real estate market and overall economy worsened significantly, there were several times where we weren't certain we'd even make it through.
Thankfully, our reputation for taking great care of clients began to yield more referrals, which was such a wonderful blessing. Referrals continued to increase over the next several years...we now receive between 1,200 - 1,500 referrals each year from our wonderful clients, professional partners, and online recommendations. We are SO THANKFUL for each and every referral, as it means the world to us when you trust us with your dear friends, family, neighbors, and clients...and we take that seriously!
Over the years, we've expanded our office significantly and added more team members to help serve our clients. We expanded into Commercial Insurance last year and just added our new office in Parrish this year with plans for additional offices over the coming several years. Our twins (Amelia and Brody) even joined the agency after High School, which is another wonderful blessing!
We are SO Thankful for each person who has played a role in these past 20 years, whether it's been serving clients as a member of our agency team, as a client who trusted us with their insurance protection, a referral partner who shared our name with a friend, or any other of the million ways you've touched our hearts 💖
We are truly and eternally thankful for each one of you, and we look forward to serving you as we continue to expand our options, offerings, and locations over the years ahead...We truly appreciate you!
