1 big thing - Contest!

Our Agents for Communities Contest was inspired by independent agents who serve their small business communities by providing trusted counsel.

• Agents support their small business clients every single day. Whether helping navigate the claims process after a loss, or providing advice on a number of issues, agents are there for small businesses.

Why it matters: We’ll award one $2,500 prize for the best story about what you mean to your community and small business customers.

We’ll award the second $2,500 prize for the best story about how you give back to your community.

The bottom line: Simply go here to learn more and submit your story. You can type it out, or record a short video on your phone. The entries will then be reviewed by a panel that will vote on the winners.
