Why has DGK decided to provide Senior
Solutions services to its clients?
DGK is currently celebrating its 100th year
of business. We believe the reason we
have withstood the test of time is because
we are constantly evolving to serve our
clients’ changing needs. Many of our
clients were coming to us with questions
as both Medicare and Social Security can
be overwhelming. Mailboxes fill up with
many solicitations of insurance during this
time period. Senior citizens deserve to
be educated about the choices that are
available to them.
Why has there been an increase in
senior product offerings in the insurance
industry?
As more Baby Boomers reach Medicare
age, many people are looking to sell
products to senior citizens. We are here
to educate you and offer unbiased help to
find the right plan. We are committed to
being available year-round to individuals
approaching Medicare age whohave
questions or concerns. In addition, our
clients can rest assured that we will always
be available to them for any questions that
they may have.
DGK is currently celebrating its 100
years in business, where do you see
your business going in the future?
The agency started with a one-man
show selling insurance while delivering
produce. We aim to constantly innovate
our business development to coincide with
the changing times. The newly-formed
Senior Solutions division addresses our
growing aging population and its need for
an advocate in Medigap situations.
We are keeping our eye on new trends,like
our younger generation buying tiny homes
or car shares. We will continue to stay
educated about new trends so we can
better address the needs of our community.
