🎉 One Year in Business 🎉

Today marks one year since Smith Insurance Agency opened its doors, and what an incredible year it has been.

Over the past year, we've had the privilege of helping individuals, families, farmers, and business owners throughout our community protect what matters most. We've celebrated new beginnings, helped navigate unexpected losses, and built relationships that mean far more than just insurance policies.

This first year has been filled with growth, learning, challenges, and countless opportunities to serve. None of it would have been possible without the trust and support of our clients, referral partners, friends, family, and community members.

We are especially grateful to those who have chosen to do business with us, referred their friends and family, left reviews, shared our posts, and supported us along the way. Because of you, we've also been able to give back to our community through local sponsorships, donations, grants, and volunteer efforts.

Our mission remains the same as day one: to provide honest insurance guidance, build lasting relationships, and help people protect their dreams while managing life's everyday risks.

Thank you for making our first year such a success. We're excited for what lies ahead and look forward to serving our community for many years to come.

Here's to Year 2! 🎉

A lot of renters think their landlord's insurance covers their stuff.
It doesn't.

Your furniture. Your electronics. Your clothes. Your personal liability.
All unprotected...unless YOU have renters insurance.
And it costs less than a Netflix subscription.

Seriously. Let's talk.

We get it. Life insurance is uncomfortable.
But you know what's worse?
Leaving your family to figure it out without a safety net.

The conversation takes 20 minutes. The protection lasts a lifetime.
Let's have it. 📲

We'll go first: "finding out your boat coverage lapsed right before July 4th." 😬
Your turn, drop it in the comments 👇

This weekend is about more than the start of summer.
It's about the men and women who gave everything so we could protect ours.
Thank you. 🇺🇸

From the Smith Insurance Agency family to yours: have a meaningful Memorial Day.

Summer cookout season is here.
And with it...a reminder that if a guest gets hurt at your home, you could be responsible.

Does your home policy actually protect you in that situation?
Most people assume yes. The answer is sometimes no.
Know your coverage before you fire up the grill. 🔥

Most people renew their insurance every year without looking at what changed.
Prices go up. Coverage gaps appear. Life changes.
This month — take 10 minutes to actually look at your policy.
Or let us look at it for you.

Today, we were honored to present a $2,000 donation through the Agent Charitable Fund - Farm Bureau Insurance of Michigan to support the grocery giveaway program at North Branch Wesleyan Church. Their program helps provide groceries to local families in need each month.

At Smith Insurance Agency, we believe being part of this community means more than simply providing insurance policies. It means supporting the people, families, and organizations that make our area such a special place to call home.

We are incredibly grateful for partnerships like these and for organizations that dedicate their time and energy to serving others.

In the same level of importance, thank you to our amazing clients and supporters. Your trust in our agency allows us to continue giving back and investing into the community we all care so deeply about. Because of you, we are able to be part of meaningful programs that truly make a difference.

Neighbors helping neighbors, that’s what community is all about. ❤️

Most people think they're covered.
Then a major lawsuit happens and they find out their policy caps out way before the damages do.
An umbrella policy fills that gap, and it costs less than you'd think.
Ask us about it. Seriously.
