History of the Local Insurance Agency tells us that things are changing….in the internet-fueled world of the years past, we learned that people would rather shop on their own, from the comfort of their sofas. Lots of what I would call “pop-up e-insurance” websites offered opportunities for sales reps from parts unknown to collect phone…
Have you already worn yourself out from the summer activities, and running a little dry on fresh ideas? I’ve decided that living in the Ozarks is one of the greatest places to be in the summer and fall…so many festivals, farms and fairs to explore, and so little time! You probably heard about a little…
It’s probably one of the greatest gifts you can give to your child, but perhaps an “unlikable” one at that. It isn’t fun, it isn’t “tangible”, and you certainly don’t hope it’ll ever be needed before they are their elderly years. It isn’t a conversation most parents want to have, but rather than think of…
July is known to some as the “month of grilling”. To others, it’s a chance to “blow” through a couple hundred dollars’ worth of fireworks and take your spot in the neighborhood as the “firework champion”. In Southwest Missouri, thanks to an overly rainy Spring/Summer, our rivers are still float-worthy, so maybe you’ll kick back…
It’s easy to update your car insurance—maybe your health insurance—ok not “easy”, but necessary on a yearly basis, so you’re sure to get the job done.

Meet Nicole Van Kirk, from Clever, MO. She has brightened the front lobby and office of IGO now for almost three months, greeting clients, answering phones, helping with marketing, and helping 8 licensed agents manage their schedules, and we appreciate her in so many ways! She loves to read—romance and mysteries—but also has a passion…
We know insurance isn’t your favorite subject—in fact, we know it’s probably one of the more dreaded topics of conversation since it sometimes means confusion and frustration. We know how you feel because we’re in the same position as many of our clients—looking for an individual health or life plan because we are either self-employed,…
It’s actually been celebrated since the Civil War to commemorate the many sacrifices made of both Union and Confederate soldiers—but in 1971, Memorial Day was officially declared a national holiday. However you’ll be celebrating, you’ll likely have some house-guests with hungry tummies-you’ve got the grill ready, but how about breakfast, since after all, who wants…
How long does it take in your home from the last day of school to the first whine…”I’m bored!”?
