What the Crawford Agency is Thankful For

It is the time of year when many reflect on what they truly value and what they are thankful for.  I would like to use this post to let everyone know what my agency is most thankful for.  It is a very long list but I will try and keep it short.

The first thing we are thankful for is our clients.  We truly appreciate each and everyone of them trusting us with their business.  Insurance may not be the shiniest thing but it is as important as anything.  We have enjoyed helping as well as getting to know each and everyone of you.  We know how valuable your time is.

The next thing we are thankful for is Farmers Insurance Group of Companies.  They have given us such a great opportunity and support.  My District Manager has been huge help in my business decision making.  Our underwriters, customer support and internal teams make it all possible to give the very best service.  I'd also like to thank the corporate people who take care of the legal information that make our industry run.  Without any of them we wouldn't be able to provide the service that they do.  They have all provided me an opportunity second to none to do something that I had only dreamed of.  That dream was to own a business and to build my own success.

Finally I must thank my family. They have truly supported every decision that has been made.  Like they say, nothing is possible for a man without the strength and support of their spouse which is true in my case.  Thank you to my wife who is always supporting me and my agency, putting up with me and driving me to be the best I can.

There are so many that I would like to thank but I could see myself going on and on.  I don't think you all would want to read something that just rambles on.  If there was anyone that I missed I apologize but don't think we aren't thankful for you all.  From all of us at the Crawford Agency


, Happy Holidays to you all and remember we just want to help and appreciate any opportunity.

It Has Been a While

Hey everyone,

It has been a while since my last post, so I'm going to do things different.  Instead of writing something completely about insurance or a circumstance, I'm going to tell you what has been going on in my agency.  It has been extremely busy but I won't overwhelm you with everything.  After this blog I will try to be more regular with my postings.

The biggest thing that happened since the last blog was that my agency, The Crawford Agency of Farmers Insurance, got to go to the Topper Club conference.  It was held in beautify Anaheim, California.  Like usual the plan ride was spent with my wife's finger nails in my arm on take off and landing.  She did great though even if this wasn't her first time flying.  I got to meet with agents from across the nation and attend some amazing workshops to learn better ways to serve you all.  We even got the luxury of spending some time in Disneyland's California Adventure.  That is a memory that will never be forgot.  What I got most out of the trip is the realization  is that I am apart of the Farmers Family.  Just like you all, my clients, are.  The way that Farmers comes together in time of need and support just astonishes me and makes me extremely proud.

On the agency front we have been continuing or mission of giving people the appropriate information so that they can make proper decisions for their family.  We are continuing to give people better coverage while saving them money.  It is always a great bonus to save someone money but our main priority to put in place proper coverage.

The agency has also added another to our staff.  We have added Mr. Brandon Trotter as an Associate Adviser.  His expertise are in commercial insurance but is licensed in all lines of business and is able to answer any questions that you may have.

Farmers has been adding some great things to better provide for our communities.  They have recently expanded our affinity discount to include: CPAs, lawyers, architects and pilots to go along with all the other discounts we already have.  Farmers has also added a 24 hour number to call of 1-800-Farmers.  They have also lowered the premium on our simple term products.  What does that mean?  It means you can now get better term life insurance without medical tests for a lot less!  There are so many great things going on that you are missing out if you don't give us a shout.


Our blog may have been neglected a bit but we are still keeping up with our other social media outlets, so make sure to check them out.  We are still available at all times of day.  I promise it won't be so long until our next blog but until then give us a shout because we would like to catch up.
