News & Views: Your Specialty Insurance Shop
Newsletter – Friday, February 2, 2018
In the insurance industry, we often make analogies to shopping. I like to make insurance analogies to food shopping! I love shopping at specialty food shops. Don’t get me wrong, for everyday needs, my local Giant Eagle is essential! I know the people who work there and I get to see friends and neighbors as I walk the aisles! But for special occasions and needs, I’ll drive to the Strip District in Pittsburgh. There are several blocks of specialty food shops – cheeses, breads, biscotti, coffees, meats, even a Pennsylvania distiller’s craft liquor store. I don’t eat these foods every day, but I value the fact they exist!
As your insurance wholesaler, we like to think of ourselves as a specialty insurance store. But I’d take it one step further, we are the indoor marketplace with all these specialists under one roof. You can call Tuscano to find that coverage or market to fill a need. Whether that need is trucking, habitational, contracting, work comp, or professional (and that’s only a few of the products we write).
Insurance producers like you need us to provide access to the wide array of exposures and risks that land on your desk. Instead of driving 50 miles you have the convenience of calling or emailing Tuscano and we do the shopping for you. When your contractor insured needs pollution coverage, seek out a specialist who understands the exposures and an insurance company who could successfully mitigate a loss.
Truckers need specialized insurance coverage for their business of hauling goods for other people. You can call Tuscano and talk to any one of our four awesome trucking underwriters. They are specialists and extremely knowledgeable and qualified to help you insure your customer. It is incredibly important to write this business with a market that specializes in trucking insurance; they know how to protect and service your customer.
You wouldn’t insure a valuable collector car on a standard auto policy, would you? You don’t have to because Tuscano offers a specific comprehensive policy for collector and antique vehicles. High value, old, fast or tricked out, your insured trusts you to find them the best insurance policy value. That value includes having a company that knows what coverage add-ons are beneficial and how to adjust a loss fairly.
When you find yourself faced with a risk that is beyond the scope of your standard markets, we want your reaction to be “Awesome, I’ll call Tuscano. They make brokering insurance easy and I’ll have a great experience doing it.” Okay, that may be a bit of an exaggeration but we still think we make insurance fun so humor me.
Whether it is a restaurant, a high-value dwelling, or a professional liability exposure, Tuscano is your specialist because we have a team of specialists engaged and ready to help you.
Have a great day!
