Boutique or Big?
Why A Bespoke And Personalised Agency Is Often Far Smoother Than Dealing With One Of The Big Players.
Is bigger always better? You might think this is the case, however, this might not be true when it comes to insurance.
A boutique insurance agency is a bespoke and personalised agency that often serves a specialised niche of insurance, rather than all types of insurance. They are often only the best professionals within their team which makes it easier to deliver the best offerings and give the best quality service to each client.
Whereas a larger company will likely have their employees working over many different types of insurance, rather than specialists, meaning their advice can be more generalised.
More times than not, the boutique insurance agency is better at providing a “full-service” experience. However, both have their differences and similarities – alongside pros and cons.
Here are some of the benefits you can experience with a boutique insurance agency like Aspect Underwriting:
A Bespoke Approach
Unlike most bigger companies, a boutique insurance agency treats each client as an individual, with individual insurance needs. This is because of the smaller, more nimble nature of the business, allowing the team to offer a customised service to the clients. They can also invest more time into getting to know their customers’ needs according to them.
Faster Service
Boutique agencies are also known for their faster service. They often have streamlined processes in place, meaning your policy doesn’t have to pass over multiple desks before a decision can be made and your insurance finalised.
Expertise
Often with a smaller agency comes more experienced team members, who are experts in their field. Since they offer niche insurance policies, they have a deeper understanding, rather than just basic knowledge of the many insurance products they offer.
The experts within boutique agencies know exactly what they are providing – and they are proud of the products and services they are offering.
Boutique insurance agencies are focused on offering nothing but the best to their clients, which makes them much more customer orientated. If you haven’t thought of choosing a smaller provider for your insurance needs, don’t neglect the benefits that a boutique insurance agency can bring you.
