Pull Out Your Existing Insurance Policy And Have An Expert Review It…….
By Mark Mathosian

During tough economic times like this, every dollar counts and you need to save money every way you can.  Jim Glasgow and his associates at Jim Glasgow Agency, Nationwide Insurance, understand this and watch out for your interests while helping you choose the best insurance for your home, auto, and business.

Glasgow is a native of Winston-Salem, attended public school here, and graduated from East Carolina University in Greenville. He is married with four children and has many hobbies, which mostly evolve around water sports like boating and jet skiing.   Jim feels strongly that you get the best service from local business people who have a real interest in the community, as well as your well-being. These are not just words.  Glasgow is a big supporter of several local charities and non-profits in the Triad area.

Glasgow’s agency recently sponsored a fund raiser hosted by Cancer Services, Inc., an organization that raises money for cancer services in Forsyth County.  In May, he also helped sponsor the Susan G. Komen Foundation Race for the Cure, with monies going towards breast cancer research.  Other organizations he supports include the March of Dimes, Bikers for Babies, and the Davidson County Little League baseball team. I think you get the picture.  Local company, local interests!  Now, on to some money saving tips.

How Glasgow Can Help You

The fact is, when it comes to purchasing insurance, you are better served by dealing with a local agent rather than buying insurance on-line, which many people do today.   Why?  Because a local agent will sit down with you and discuss your specific needs.  “Buying on-line is a one way deal,” according to Glasgow.  “When you purchase insurance from an agency with its roots in the Triad, your local person is a counselor.”  Glasgow believes, and I agree, that if you have a relationship with a local representative, you will be a “better informed and educated, insurance buyer.”

Glasgow and his associates will help you understand the fine details of the policies you now have and help you identify gaps in your insurance coverage that should be filled.   Likewise, in this ever-changing world, you may have too much coverage right now or may be able to save money by replacing your existing policy. This is very feasible in this day and age when all insurance companies are competing for your dollars.

Insurance companies, like other businesses, adapt to the current economic times.  They realize you are more careful today than ever with your money.  Consequently, the insurance companies lower the costs of their policies to stay competitive.  The fact is, you may be paying too much for what you already have and may receive a better deal just by asking.

According to Crystal Mendenhall, one of Glasgow’s insurance agents, “The biggest mistake people make today is that they do not understand what they are buying and become over insured or under insured.  Many people have policies for years but don’t review them because it is a hassle,” she explained.  Mendenhall and other customer service representatives and insurance agents at Glasgow’s agency will help you understand what you have and help you make decisions which will benefit you and your business.

Mendenhall also suggests that you annually review all of your insurance policies.   “Things change all the time,” says Mendenhall.  Perhaps you moved to a new location or hired someone new to work for your business.  Is the new location covered? The new employee?   You certainly don’t want to wait until something happens to get answers to these questions.

Glasgow has several offices in the area and all of his employees are friendly and helpful.  Give Crystal a call and get your insurance house in order.  You will likely save some money and aggravation along the way!

Contact information: Glasgow has four offices throughout the area.  The main office is at 3809 Forrestgate Drive, 336-768-7906.  Call Crystal at 397-0289 and you can learn which office is closest to you.  Also, be sure to visit the Jim Glasgow Agency- Nationwide Insurance Facebook page to learn more about Glasgow, his business, his employees and associates, http://www.facebook.com.
