re: What’s the point of a State Farm “Insurance Agent”?

Apparently he doesn’t need the business. That’s fine by me but that still strikes me as terrible. Especially if you’re supposed to be running it like “it’s your own business”.

I’d be on the hustle all. the. time. Word of mouth is such a big deal here in LC.

I'm not trying to give you a hard time and I thought just like you do not too long ago. I'm on the other side of things now and there is a balance to maintain.

You're not a bad client per se. To give you the attention you require, at the rates he charges, may be costing him money. If it were me, and this was the situation, I wouldn't ignore you but I'd charge the appropriate fee for my time and you would either pay it or decide to find an agent that can take care of you like you want for the price you'd like to pay.

I've found that's the most amicable way to handle these situations.
