By expanding through complementary strengths and delivering peerless levels of service and capabilities to partners and policyholders, CopperPoint has reached exceptional levels of renewal retention, new business and financial performance – despite the volatile business landscape.
“Our momentum is driven by our focus on five essential areas,” comments Marc Schmittlein. “The talent and expertise of our people; the scaling of our technology platform; advanced data and analytics; deep relationships with our limited distribution network; and, not least, maintaining policyholder value through exceptional customer service.”
The ongoing technological investments are always, however, in service of the human strengths of CopperPoint: its success has always been based on relationships, and the conviction that the role of insurance is to ensure the safety of the worker, the workplace and the success of each business.
“We can now offer coverage, capabilities and convenient quotes through straight-through-processing to more small businesses, expanding the CopperPoint experience from large and middle market accounts,” adds Marc.
CopperPoint’s limited distribution network is key to redefining this experience. Hand-selecting the very best agent-broker partners within Arizona who align with CopperPoint’s high service model helps identify insureds who understand that tailored service and risk management minimize losses and costs, protecting and progressing each business.
Fully licensed in 26 states, CopperPoint is set to make insurance mean more to more people. This cornerstone of the company culture is embodied by its community giving and volunteer efforts, which this year topped $2 million to 253 organizations throughout the neighborhoods where CopperPoint employees live and work.
