MIssion Statement

5. Current Social Media Presence
Besides a user created
website, Freedom Insurance
Services does not have a
presence on any of the
current social media
platforms. The website is one-
way communication medium
where customers cannot
apply for policies via the
website nor receive feedback
concerning their customer
service.

6. Freedom Financial Services increases premium by rolling over books
from acquired insurance brokers in the area. Instead of reaching to a
new demographic of customers, it is reliant on current policies
underwritten by the various brokers. Though Freedom writes
business through large insurance companies such as Progressive,
NGIC, Geico, and Travelers, there is pressure to conform to more
online services and user-friendly mobile apps.
