PARTNERSHIP was the first person willing to figure it out . His can-do spirit and resourcefulness seamlessly matched our Midwest values of hard work and collaboration , and I felt confident in a partnership with Spectrum Insurance Group immediately .
Although I was impressed by Mike ’ s approach to doing business , the results he delivered spoke for themselves when it was time to seal the deal . Mike sat down with me to understand our needs in depth . Not only did RC Mowers need business insurance but it also needed benefit insurance , workers ’ compensation insurance , liability insurance , and other types of coverage . To be honest , I didn ’ t even really know what we needed . I was looking for someone with a better vantage point to provide guidance , and that ’ s exactly what Mike delivered .
Once he had a handle on our one-of-akind approach and innovative business model , Mike got to work . He was able to get me in touch with some of the most well-respected insurance companies on the market . Mike was able to convince some of the same providers that weren ’ t willing to sit down with me earlier to come to the table and have a discussion . He was a liaison that advocated for my business needs while also helping the insurance companies understand our company and our products .
At the end of those discussions , we had better coverage than I could have ever expected . From that moment on , I knew Mike was going to do whatever he could to help protect the business I had worked so hard to build . He has been our Spectrum Insurance agent ever since .
Working with Mike is more than easy ; it ’ s truly enjoyable . When I reach out with a question — which , there are a lot of questions when you ’ re leading a “ revolution ”— he and his team at Spectrum are quick to respond , dedicated to finding the right answers , and helping us build a path forward . That level of service is hard to come by these days , but with Spectrum , it ’ s the standard .
Within the last two years , we had someone slip and fall in an icy parking lot . We ’ re no strangers to cold , icy , Green Bay winters , but I truthfully didn ’ t know how to respond from an insurance angle . I didn ’ t know if I should work with workers ’ compensation insurance or something else , but after one phone call with Mike , I had a confident plan of action . Being able to rely on my insurance provider as somewhat of a business advisor in pertinent situations is something I ’ ll never take for granted . Many of my peers in the industry don ’ t have the same dynamic with their insurance agents , and I regularly recommend Mike at Spectrum Insurance .
As a whole , Spectrum is a large-enough insurance group to provide multiple types of insurance that businesses need to operate safely . Whether you ’ re working in a labor-intensive industry like mowing or have your own accounting firm , securing the right insurance shouldn ’ t be an afterthought . Working with a variety of different businesses and business models is just a normal Tuesday for Spectrum . They ’ ve mastered specialized and sometimes hazardous sectors like robotics , autonomous machinery , and industrial , yet they are still small enough to provide personalized service .
At RC Mowers , we pride ourselves on doing business differently . We ’ ve created a whole new “ ecosystem ” of service , aka , our way of seeing and doing business . Our approach to mower design and manufacturing is revolutionizing the entire industry . Sometimes I think we found Spectrum because of our shared values . We both conduct ourselves differently than other companies that surround us , and that ’ s what makes us successful . I can ’ t imagine a day where we don ’ t work with Mike and the greater Spectrum team ; they ’ ve been with us since the very start .
If you ’ ve ever wanted to take a chance on a new business venture or simply expand your current offerings , I can ’ t recommend highly enough that you partner with an insurance agent you wholeheartedly trust . I ’ m not sure RC Mowers would be where we are today if we didn ’ t have Mike in our corner , helping us break down barriers and open minds . Thank you , Mike Tiedt and Spectrum Insurance for being invested in the success of RC Mowers . +
