What is Trusted Choice?
Trusted Choice® is more than a logo, tagline or advertisement - it is a brand created exclusively for Big "I" members to help individual consumers differentiate the services provided by independent insurance agents and brokers. This ground-breaking consumer branding program is making great strides toward putting independent agents at the top of insurance consumers' minds.
The Trusted Choice® brand positions your agency as the place where customers can find:
- Choice of insurance companies,
- Customization of insurance policies to meet their specific needs,
- Advocacy through support and assistance with claims.
These are the attributes consumers are looking for in an insurance agent.
