February is Life Insurance & Heart Health Month!

Hello  ,

Welcome to our very first newsletter! We want to be sure to give you the most value out of these, so we will be hearing from people within our community as well as the latest in what is going with Omnia, any insurance updates as well as fun reads and possibly a video here and there from yours truly!

First and foremost, I want to say thank you for all of the encouragement and prayers through the launch of my new business! Owning my own independent insurance agency is something I didn't think would happen for me, when I first started looking into this years ago. If you want to learn more about us and why we are different, read on!

WHAT TYPES OF INSURANCE WE OFFER:

With our agency being independent, we can offer multiple quotes from different carriers so you have more options! We currently offer Personal lines (auto, home, renters, condo, etc.) as well as commercial lines (business, workers comp, general liability, errors & omissions, business auto, etc). We most recently added disability and life insurance as well - for both businesses as well as personal lines of insurance.

OFFICE UPDATE:

As of right now, I have a pending location, I am awaiting the lease to reach my inbox! I will keep you all updated and please don't forget to like our Facebook page!

In the meantime, read on to learn more about what we're doing, learn from those in your community and please feel free to share this on social media and with your friends/family.

Blessings,

Mindy Cook

February is Heart Health Month

Heart disease was uncommon in the early years of the 20th century. In 1900 it was the fourth most common cause of death, trailing infectious diseases such as pneumonia and tuberculosis.

Three decades later, heart disease deaths have become the commonest cause of death in the US and still remain the leading cause of death in the US today.

It doesn't need to be that way!

The healthiest hearts in the world have been found in the Tsimane people in the forests of Bolivia. Researchers found that diet and lifestyle had a major impact on these unique findings. Of course, most of us cannot revert to a hunter-gathering and early farming existence, however, these offer lessons for all of us.

A Widow's Story

Sure we have all heard that we need life insurance, but do we really need life insurance? In this case, I wish I would have met this couple sooner. This couple had a business together, a very successful business together. The husband did not have any life insurance in place in the event something happened to him, for his wife and daughter. Some would read this and think that was very selfish, right? Well, for this couple things got busy with their business really fast and it fell to the backburner. Unfortunately there wasn't a financial professional in their life to ask them about life insurance needs at this time.

As time went on, the business was a steady success, however one day the husband received some bad new about his health. They had applied for life insurance while he was sick, however the premiums were just too much for their budget. It was too late. He was ill and passed away not much longer after he was diagnosed. Unfortunately due to lack of planning with the business and with personal items, there was no life insurance available to the wife and daughter. After the husband had passed, they not only had a loss of his income but also medical bills.

For the wife and daughter left behind, their way of life changed drastically, as you can imagine.

I share this story with you not to make you sad, but to help remind you that if you do not have any life insurance in place for your family, to please do so right away. We can help. A quick meeting to determine how much you need then we would go right into the application process, which depending on your medical history and the amount requested shouldn't take too long.

If this story resonated with you or served as a reminder for you to get your own life insurance policy in place, please reach out to us by phone, email or even book a consultation and get the ball rolling right away.
