If you’ve been reading this blog a while you may know that I’m a pilot and I own a couple of airplanes. But I don’t insure them. Someone in my office argued that I should but I think aviation insurance is complicated and specialized enough that I’m just not comfortable being my own brain surgeon.
And I have one of the best insurance agents in the world handling my account (by the way I know what I’m talking about – our company OAA is a partner in nearly 100 agencies)!
How do I know he’s one of the best? Here is what he does for me:
OK, so a lot of this is par for the course. But it’s a good checklist (pilot slang!) for any of us to make sure we’re hitting the basics.
But where he really shines is when you have a claim. Unfortunately, as a plane owner and president of a flying club I’ve participated in several. In every case:
He always asks “is there anything else I can do for you?” His attitude is whatever it takes.
I’ve watched his business grow dramatically over several years. It gives me great satisfaction to see him become more and more successful!
Oh, by the way, his office is 1500 miles away from my home and we have never met. But I consider him a friend.
How many of your customers feel that way about you?
