“Every door we knocked on was insured by a national brokerage. They don’t visit the client, they bombard them with emails, and they expect them just to renew” We head to Newport to talk with one of our newest Broker Partners. Ben Tweddle, who has over 20 years’ experience under his belt, works alongside friend (and fellow director) Ben Hasler at Protex Insurance. Their investment into the local community in their first year is obvious to see, as they focus on their commitment to superior customer service. Ben, who loves working in the motor trade sector, talks about: 🐶 his first job at a steel company🐶 the importance of partnership, both between him and Ben, and also Momentum🐶 ‘Tex’ – the potential four-legged mascot If you want to join Alistair on a future episode, drop our Marketing Team a message.
