Have you heard of term life insurance and are wondering if it might be right for you? Term life coverage is designed to provide a financial benefit to your chosen beneficiaries if you pass away during a selected coverage period, often 10, 20, or 30 years.

Here are a few reasons many people choose this type of coverage:

🔹It can be a good fit during life’s busiest financial years, when others may be relying on your income the most.

🔹Coverage may be more affordable when purchased earlier, as premiums are often based on factors such as age and health.

🔹You can choose coverage that aligns with your goals, like paying off a mortgage, supporting children through college, or preparing for retirement.

🔹It can provide protection at a lower cost, allowing individuals to obtain higher coverage amounts for a lower premium.

🔹 Some policies offer flexibility for the future, with options to convert to permanent life insurance later on.

If you’d like to explore coverage options or see what a policy may look like for your situation, feel free to reach out. We’d be happy to answer questions or put together a quote for you.

Most people think of life insurance as protection for the people they love. And while that is absolutely true, there is another dimension to permanent life insurance that is worth understanding: its potential to serve as a supplemental source of retirement income through what is known as a life insurance retirement plan (LIRP).

Swipe through for a clear and straightforward overview of how LIRPs work and how they can fit into a well-rounded financial strategy.

If you have questions about LIRPs or want to explore whether this strategy makes sense for you, feel free to send our office a message. We are here to help.

What does 31 years of showing up for people look like? It looks like Beverly. 👏

Last Friday, Beverly celebrated 31 years with Watkins Insurance Agency! That's more than three decades of taking care of our clients and our team.

Beverly leads our Commercial Lines team and keeps our Operations , HR and accounting running smoothly. But what truly sets her apart is simple: she puts clients first, every single time. When someone needs something, she's the first to jump in.

Recently I ran into a former client who told me she'd give anything to work with Beverly again. She said Beverly was always on her game, and her response times were unmatched. Can you imagine a better compliment? 💙

Beverly, thank you for 31 years of loyalty, excellence, and heart. We are so lucky to have you!

Drop a congrats for Beverly in the comments! 👇

You probably know that saving money for a rainy day is smart, but did you know that a life insurance policy can be a part of that strategy?

Some life insurance policies can build cash value over time, and this cash value can help protect you and your family “on a rainy day.” Additionally, some life insurance riders and your death benefit can help protect your family financially if anything were to happen to you.

If you have any questions about your life insurance policy, give us a call, and we can help ensure it is meeting your needs.
