North Bay NARI Builders’ Roundtable Presents:
"Remodel
your Insurance Costs"
Don
Bury is a former insurance broker who saw the ills of the insurance
industry from the inside, and decided to expose the industry’s
inner workings and secrets by educating insurance buyers whom
he often sees being victimized by the system. He is currently
the President and Founder of Insurance Cost Reduction Services
(ICRS), which has created over $20 million in insurance premium
reductions for contractors since its inception in 1993. The
average annual premium savings of businesses using Don’s
information and techniques is an astounding 20-50%.
This is one event you don’t want to miss!
It’s a fact that most contractors are unnecessarily overpaying
on their insurance by 20% or more, and are nowhere near the
bottom pricing of the market – regardless of what their
brokers may be telling them. In order to find the true bottom
of the commercial insurance market, contractors need to arm
themselves with information and resources that help them level
the playing field. Helping contractors do just this is the life’s
work of Don bury, a 30-year risk manager and insurance expert,
who has, to date, helped contractors and other businesses save
over $20 million in reduced insurance premiums through the education
and resources he provides.
You will learn:
-
How you can save money and improve your insurance coverage
and service
-
Valuable techniques
-
Usable methods and tools that you can take away to begin
immediately lowering your insurance costs.
-
How to get the most from your relationships with brokers
-
How to inspire your brokers to provide the highest possible
level of service
