In my nearly forty years in the insurance profession, I have noticed those insureds who are given a basic knowledge of the options which are being offered to them, as well as explanations of their existing coverage, are the clients which an agency will retain for a number of years. This Guide does not provide each and every coverage issue nor is it to be utilized as a replacement in reviewing your own policies. Instead it is hoped that the information contained herein will assist you when reviewing the insurance programs which may be offered to you by your agent or insurance company. The insurance industry changes yearly, but by being provided the basics and a firm coverage understanding, you may be not only protect your business by being assured your business is insured appropriately but the benefit may be fundamental in providing changes which may be required by members of the public. I have been very fortunate in my career to have worked for numerous agencies and two insurers, managing the difficulties associated with soft and hard markets and the ability to have mastered solutions for unique territorial problems associated with the East and West coasts as well as those of the Midwest. In my passion to continually educate myself in an industry I love, I have had the opportunity to extend my knowledge to not only a few segments of the insurance industry but to all areas of property and casualty insurance. I began my career at a time where one had opportunities to learn if one was willing and able to extend themselves by self-study and experience. With the lack of college level insurance education and the fact that even with education through the many programs offered through the American Institute for Property and Liability Underwriters, Inc. and other insurance schools, a graduate must still work their way up the ladder. This does not usually entice a graduate to enter into the insurance industry when many other vocations offer higher scales of remuneration t

An excellent resource for beginners!!!!,
This review is from: The Savvy Businessperson's Guide To Property & Casualty Insurance: Applications and Practices (Paperback)
I found the book to be very helpful in understanding insurance coverges. It is a great source of information for a person seeking a career in insurance. The coverages in this book are explained to you where you can understand what the author is trying to explain to you. Usually insurance books lose the readers interest once it's starts explaining the coverages in legal terms and not in everyday language. I Keep the book in my desk as it is a great reference book. I recommend this book for anyone getting into the insurance business as well as a seasoned agent.

Excellent Reference for Business Owners.,
This review is from: The Savvy Businessperson's Guide To Property & Casualty Insurance: Applications and Practices (Paperback)
I found that this book provided numerous legal aspects of great importance to business owners or comptrollers. All forms of business property and casualty insurance are covered in an easy to understand format that one can use as a reference guide. I have found no other book that explains the complexities of this important business field. One can read the actual insurance manuals and bore yourself to death; Or you can use this book, as I do, to answer all of my/your questions on property and casualty insurance. Your comptroller should have this book on his shelf. It has aided my company immensley. Highly recommended.

Junk,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Savvy Businessperson's Guide To Property & Casualty Insurance: Applications and Practices (Paperback)
I don't even know why I bought this. I should've looked up the author before wasting $30. The book is massive and has no real structure and almost reads like it's a novel, except it's supposed to be used as a reference book.
Elaboration's pointless and at this point would be dishonest. I threw this junk out in the garbage last week. I'm actually embarrassed I bought this when I know self published books are usually garbage. It fills a niche, however, and common sense eluded me.
