June 2025 Update – More Than a Policy – A Partner
June 1, 2025🌞 August 2025 — Keeping Your Insurance in Step with Life🌞
August 1, 2025With vacation season in full swing and a new quarter underway, it’s the perfect time to make sure your insurance is keeping pace with life. In this month’s newsletter, we’re highlighting timely coverage tips, digital protection insights, and a few ways to avoid costly oversights — all while sharing what makes working with an independent agent so valuable in 2025.
💳 Avoid Late Fees — Why Autopay & EFT Make a Big Difference
Late fees don’t just cost a few extra dollars — over time, they add up and can create gaps in coverage that may leave you financially exposed. Even one missed payment can mean:
- Costly late fees that stack up if multiple policies are affected
- Coverage lapses that could put your home, auto, or business at risk
Why Autopay & EFT are the smarter choice:
✅ Consistency & peace of mind — payments happen automatically, so you never miss a due date
✅ Fewer processing delays — EFT withdrawals post faster than mailed checks or credit card transactions, reducing the chance of late posting
✅ Lower costs — many carriers charge fees for card payments, but EFT avoids those extra charges
✅ Potential discounts — some carriers reward autopay enrollment with small premium savings

📩 Mid-Year Insurance Checkup: Why Summer is the Best Time
Why a July checkup matters:
- Summer travel often increases auto and rental car exposures
- Pool ownership, boats, and jet skis may need extra liability protection
- Seasonal hires and interns can affect commercial policies
📩 If you’re unsure whether you’re protected, we’d love to help you review your options.
🌊 Engels Family Spotlight: Lake Life Edition
July is our family’s favorite time of year — and this summer, we made more memories at the lake. From tubing and kayaking to late-night campfires, it was a reminder of how important it is to unplug and soak in the moments with the people who matter most. Just like a great family trip, protecting what matters most takes planning, preparation, and a commitment to safety. These are the same values we bring to our clients every day — whether we’re reviewing your coverage, helping you file a claim, or simply answering a question.
