Dear Business Owner:
Welcome to the latest edition of Marcotte the Magazine!
We have received a great deal of positive feedback since the
magazine’s inception one year ago and hope to continue to
provide the type of useful information that will help you make
the best decisions possible for your business.
The foundation of Marcotte’s success is our system of core
values, which guides us in everything we do:
• Get it done
• Do it right
• Put the client’s best interests first
• Focus on fun and family
As we have continued to grow and evolve as a company, these
values have been first and foremost in every hiring decision we
make. By underscoring these values, we ensure that our team
is always rowing in the same direction, working together to
please and delight our clients.
Part of our mission involves community service, and I am happy
to report that during the first year of our “Marcotte Miracles”
program of giving back—not just monetarily but through time
donated by every employee each quarter—we exceeded our
goal by almost twofold. That commitment to helping others
drives us at Marcotte every day and strengthens our resolve to
work toward our goal of giving away over $1 million over the
next 10 years.
I like to tell my team here that when they’re in the midst of a
tough decision, they should focus solely on the best interests of
our clients and act accordingly. When seen through this lens,
every decision is transformed from murky gray to black and
white with clarity, and the path ahead becomes crystal clear.
Best wishes for a successful year-end and enjoy the magazine!
Sincerely,
26 INSURING YOUR VALUABLE PERSONAL PROPERTY
