Biggs Refer-a-Friend Program       Coffee Cup

We consider it the highest compliment when our clients have the confidence in us to refer their friends and family.  To show our
gratitude, we launched our Refer-a-Friend program in 2010.  This program is our way
of saying thank you for all the referrals you have trusted
us with over the years.  Here is how it works...

When those you refer call our office for a quote, we will ask how they heard about us.  When your name is mentioned, we will send you a $5 Starbuck's card and also make a $5 donation to The Council for the Homeless. 

In addition to the Starbuck's card, with each referral you provide, your name is entered in our monthly and year-end drawings.  The monthly winner will receive a $50 VISA gift card and the yearly winner will receive a $500 VISA gift card.

Winter Storms Ahead:  Are You Ready?
 
We admit it:  As insurance pros, our picture of winter isn't exactly cozy.  Winter storms mean traffic snarls, hillsides turning to sheets of ice, and cars sliding around like hockey pucks.  Cold temperatures can cause pipes to burst.  Heating your home with fireplaces and holiday lighting can increase the risk of fire.  Here are a few tips to help reduce weather-related hassles:
  • winter-proof your car - snow tires, antifreeze, wiper blades
  • do not overload circuits
  • when storms hit, do not drive if at all possible
  • if power is out, do not leave candles or fires unattended

If you have any questions regarding your coverage, call us at 360-695-3301 and will help review your options.
