About Options Insurance
Jim Steed Agency
A Message From Jim Steed
With over 32-years in the insurance industry, I learned that many insurance agents are held captive to a single insurance carrier. These captive arrangements serve to pigeonhole both client AND agent into only one carrier offering. Where’s the competitive shopping in that? I created an independent agency representing several nationally and regionally branded carriers, which allows us to provide numerous OPTIONS for our clients with every quote package we run. NO captive/single carrier approach here; rather, we get an array of rates from numerous carriers who are all bidding to win your business. Then, every 4-5 years, we do it for you again: We re-quote you with all our carriers in an effort to reduce/re-set your rates by strategically moving you to a new carrier at just the right time. This allows my agency to establish long-term relationships with our clients that’ll last decades…not just a few years.

Many insurance agents are unfortunately held captive to a single insurance carrier; however, we’re an independent agency representing several nationally and regionally branded carriers. This allows us to provide numerous OPTIONS for all our clients with every quote package we run. Instead of receiving a “take-it-or-leave-it” rate from a single carrier, we get an array of rates from numerous carriers who are all bidding to win your business. Then…every 4-5 years, we do it for you again, re-quoting you with all our carriers and reducing your rates by strategically moving you to a new carrier at just the right time. This allows my agency to establish long-term relationships with our clients that’ll last decades, not just a few years. Let us show you what we can do to provide proper protection while reducing your annual insurance spend!

A Message From Veronica Coyle
They say diamonds are a girl’s best friend, and that was certainly true of me for over 2-decades as I worked in retail jewelry stores and outlets. But Options Insurance was intriguing and had a unique sparkle, so when Jim presented me with a chance to change careers and move into insurance in 2019…I was sold! My family was already a client at Options Insurance, so my transition was made easier by the trust I had developed with Jim in our agent/client relationship. I had no insurance background but studied for and passed my insurance exams in only 4-weeks…the rest is history. I’m now thriving in my insurance career and truly enjoy providing creative solutions and caring for our Options Insurance client family.
