Phone Philosophy

Ever call a business only to get the run-around or a menu saying "press 1 for this, press 2 for that?"

Frustrating, isn't it? That's why, when you call Statewide, you'll get a live person eager and able to help you. If you're underwriter is unavailable at the moment, you can leave a voice mail. Be assured, you'll get a call back.

Even better, drop them an email. They WILL respond, fast.

So, what's the 'Phone Philosophy?' It's quite simple. Phone Quotes. It's what we do best. We know you don't need practice filling out applications. We certainly don't need practice reading them. If you have a small to medium sized risk you need quoted, call us. That's right, call us. Let us see if we can quote you over the phone. Sure beats filling out an app. Do the application AFTER you get a quote and sell it to your client. If we can't quote you over the phone for whatever reason, we'll let you know. Then and only then, app it up and send it over. We'll get right on it.
