Being an adult can be overwhelming. You’ve got big decisions to make, money to figure out, and a social life to manage. Plus, you've got to figure out a way to get more vegetables in your body. This is all just a panic attack waiting to happen. Could you bury your head in the sand and eat mac and cheese every day? Yes, but your problems will only get worse, and you may end up with scurvy.

 The best thing you can do is talk to someone. And when it comes to insurance, you'll want a Trusted Choice® Independent Insurance Agent in your corner. Why, you ask? Keep reading.

1.        Stress-Free Choosing

We're inundated with choices. Do you want to take an Uber or Lyft? Should you buy a Mac or a PC? That’s great that you want an iPhone, but what color? And then there’s the choice that causes a rift between most couples: Where should we eat for dinner?

But choices aren’t all bad, and in the end, it’s not the choices that are frustrating but the choosing and all the research leading up to it that’s the pain. From Amazon reviews to YouTube unboxing videos there’s a lot of information out there, and that’s just for the everyday purchases. It’s fair to say that even with all the research we do, we don’t always make the right decision. Remember this girl who thought she ordered a regular chair on Amazon, but received a tiny one?

There can be a lot of confusing choices when it comes to insurance. Doing the research can be overwhelming. And at the end of the process, you’re still not sure if you’ve got what you need. The bottom line is that insurance is complicated. That’s why it’s a relief to have someone on the other end of the phone (or text or email) who knows what’s going on. Your Trusted Choice® Independent Insurance Agent is a trained expert whose job it is to help you make the best choices about insurance coverage. Trusted Choice agents will offer choices, too, but they use their expertise to research your needs, walk you through your best options and make recommendations. When you work with an independent agent, you can feel confident that you and your property are protected. That’s one less choice you need to worry about.

2.        Giving Back Is Simpler

The 21st Century has given us many pro-social outlets. There are so many new ways to give back to your local community. One option is to choose to do business with organizations that are making a difference in the world. Companies like Hand in Hand, Warby Parker and Good Spread all use your purchase to give back to a worthy cause. Doing business with those companies makes it easy to get the warm and fuzzy feeling of giving, all while buying what you need.

For many of us, a company's willingness to give back plays a big part in our decision-making. That's why working with a Trusted Choice Independent Insurance Agent is a no-brainer. Independent agents play a significant role in supporting their communities and giving back. You'll almost always see that they’ve sponsored a community T-ball team, organized a fundraiser supporting an important charity, or made donations to a food bank. When you choose to work with a Trusted Choice agent, you'll know your money is being used for good, and that feels great!

3.        Saving Money Is Uncomplicated

One of the most frustrating things about being an adult is spending hard-earned money on non-fun things. There are times when you feel that your entire check has gone to bills. Not fun. That's why it's important to understand your needs and make sure you're not overpaying or underdoing it. There's nothing more annoying than paying for the cheapest internet package and having to wait while Netflix buffers. And it doesn't make sense to buy the largest cable package when you only stream Hulu and Amazon.

This is where your relationship with a Trusted Choice Independent Insurance Agent makes a huge difference. Your agent will get to know your needs and understand what you're looking for. They’ll make recommendations that fit your budget while ensuring that you have the correct coverage. And just because it's extensive doesn't mean it's time-consuming. You’re busy and they get it. You can communicate with them in whatever way is easiest for you and be on your way. Insurance is a necessary part of life, but it doesn’t have to take much time or deplete your bank account.

Really, there are a lot of reasons to work with a Trusted Choice® Independent Insurance Agent. You'll enjoy some peace of mind knowing that you are protected. And, it gets even better!
