The claims department is like an emergency room,problems to be fixed and unsettling emotions that run high. From the smallest problem such as a broken windshield, to the severity of a total loss claim paying out the policy limits, hand-holding and follow thru is extremely important. The service I provide to my client is vital to their understanding, satisfaction, and reassurance just WHY they choose Manry Rawls as their Insurance Agency. Trust is the foundation of any relationship - and the relationship I have with my client is that they can trust that I am on their team and will serve them to my best ability.

The business environment has changed dramatically over recent years due to globalization. While our culture is accepting imports, other cultures are learning sound business tactics in order to compete. Insurance, being a true cost of operations, needs to be watched on a regular basis as a tool to enhance overall business for strength. Manry Rawls is an established provider of sound insurance products and I am proud to be a part of the team.

Because we work as a team to support our clients and insurance companies, the work I do with others behind the scenes makes a difference. I value that everyone's efforts matter and that we work as an organization to support our clients. It is those client and insurance company relationships that make my job rewarding.

I take my commitment to provide my clients with the insurance coverages they need very seriously, and I spend much of my time focusing on that promise. My clients often ask me to advise them or give them my thoughts on business issues other than insurance. I am always happy to pass on information or ideas I have learned from many years of interaction with clients and business associates. I am successful only if my clients are successful.

I have been a part of the Manry-Rawls team for over 25 years. During that time, I have worked hard to develop relationships with my clients that are as long lasting. Many now are more like friends than customers. I pride myself on providing my clients with the best possible service I can. My goal is to help them understand their coverage needs so they feel more comfortable with the insurance industry as a whole and Manry-Rawls specifically.

Job satisfaction is achieved with me when I can partner with a client to assess their insurance needs and then put together an insurance program that best fits their operation. Being able to uncover an area where we can help a client where he/she has not had coverage or being able to offer a service that fills a need with a client is what I strive to attain. Fulfilling these needs gives me great pleasure and has enabled me to nurture and maintain strong relationships with my clients for many years.

My job is to get the message out about the products and services that our agency offers, and I think I have more fun than anyone else here! It makes it easy to "advertise" an organization when the integrity, knowledge and standards of service are set so high. It is easy to "sell" Manry Rawls, because I believe in Manry Rawls!

Since entering the insurance industry, I have seen many changes in both the needs of my clients and the way I am asked to do my job. As my clients' challenges have grown so has my freedom to meet them. With that freedom comes an increased sense of responsibility to help my clients and the satisfaction of being a part of the growth of their businesses.

We at Manry-Rawls will always strive to give you the service that you deserve and expect to receive."
