Anticipation is everything

By Charles Martin | April 16, 2008

The hothead utilizes Chubb’s Masterpiece Policy as insurance coverage for Treehouse.  An unexpected letter arrived today. 

All the elements of good customer-keeping:

  1. unexpected surprise in today’s down fincancial markets
  2. no up-front costs
  3. anticipating my needs and safety before I might

I have a real problem arguing with folks that don’t appreciate good insurance.  Sure, EVERYBODY wants to get your money and the insurance companies are all crooks … ya ya ya.  You hear it so many times.  Actually, in the real world, all your insurance company wants you to do is be a little cautious and certainly not careless. 

Chubb is one of those companies that is very silent, doesn’t need to market much and stands on it’s history as an A1 provider of insurance to all types of people.  They know I’m proactive, so they are too. 

In the end, we all win.
