Marketing Minute: Darryl Powell

Darryl gave us a success story about good business practice. In 2005, they switched car insurance to Powell Insurance (!) and has been with them for years with various coverages. They asked to cancel one coverage and were informed when they did that the cost would go up because it was no longer a “package”. He understood but wasn’t happy.

Six months later, Darryl received a call from the provider that they were looking at their policy to see what they could do better. He hadn’t asked for it, but the woman found car coverage that would be a little more, but their homeowner’s would go down significantly; she’d noticed notes in his file about the previous change and she’d wanted to see what she could do to make things better for him.

We can learn from this and see how we can look at our customers to treat them with better service, without them asking for it.

Presenter: Tom Breslawski

Tom talks about his slides to the group of NRG members who are seated around long tables.

Tom rolled out his newly minted and very fitting tagline 🥁🥁🥁 “I find what others miss”. He gave us personal updates about his background, family, farming and various hobbies.

The crowd was riveted as Tom showed examples of problem areas he finds: from roofs to sub-basement, water-filled cisterns to exterior and interior issues 🤯. We’re now all terrified of our homes but we know one thing: Tom is a true professional who doesn’t cut corners and cares deeply about providing as much information as possible to a future or new homeowner so they can make the best possible decisions when it comes to the largest purchase/investment we’ll have in our lives.
