Can you snap?

Tie your shoes?

Ride a bike?

These seemingly simple activities are included in a compilation of tweets that highlight life skills people never learned.

Number 26 hit particularly close to home:

“The billing lady at my OB tried to explain something about my insurance deductible for about 20 minutes and I almost cried. You could explain deductibles 1000 times to me and I’ll understand it for about 30 seconds, tops.” ”

And then the comments.

Our customers are willing to take to a public forum to share the confusion and frustration they feel about insurance, but so often they are reluctant to admit what they don’t know to the person who is best positioned to bridge that gap - their insurance agent.

And so often they simply don’t know what they don’t know. Insurance is a language we’re not taught - but yet navigating this system is an essential life skill.

When we meet our customers where they are, we see confusion and fear replaced with confidence.

Confidence in insurance? Yes, please!
