Louisiana Agency Success Story – Tracy Shields

We receive inbound insurance referrals from TrustedChoice.com probably four or five times a week, maybe more. It’s really helped out.

Tracy Shields

Paulin Insurance Associates

Metairie, LA

“I think it means a lot to our agency, because we’re one of very few in the New Orleans area that are highlighted as an elite partner [on TrustedChoice.com]. We do get a lot of phone calls for that reason… You pop out to people, and they see you before they start reading through the whole list.”

“We receive inbound referrals [from TrustedChoice.com] probably four or five times a week, maybe more… It’s really helped out – we have three brand new producers… and it’s helping them grow their book.”

“I think we’re probably writing about 50% of what comes in from [TrustedChoice.com] – so I’d say that’s pretty good, because without you, we wouldn’t be getting those leads.”

TrustedChoice.com is the #1 online resource for connecting insurance buyers with independent insurance agents. We rank high in Google search results and have had over 30 million insurance shoppers visit TrustedChoice.com. Become a recommended agency on TrustedChoice.com today. Learn more.
