This picture was taken about one year ago at my son Tapp Allen's graduation. A lot has changed in just one year, including the length of his hair-it's alot longer now. I recently had to give an elevator speech at a business luncheon I was at. Normally great at these things I bombed. Someone told me afterwards that I did fine, however I am pretty sure the guy was just being nice. The purpose of an elevator speech is obviously to let someone know what exactly it is you do for a living. If you are in the sales or service business than the purpose of that speech should be changed to what it is exactly that you can do to improve that person's life. In the end that's all any of us are concerned with business wise anyhow? What I should have said was that we have 3 offices located throughout the state of Arkansas and over 150 years of experience. By being an independent agency we are able to shop all of your insurance with literally hundreds of insurance companies and that no one could sell you insurance any cheaper than we can. In addition to providing the lowest possible premiums in the south-we only use insurance companies that are A rated or better.
While our business has grown like crazy since this time last year, we cant rest on our laurels. That luncheon was a perfect example of how important it is to tune up your elevator speech every year-because just like Tapp Allen's hair-a lot can change in a year.
