Two days after Hurricane Katrina, Travis Torrence opened the doors to Travis Torrence Insurance Agency in St. Francisville with no customers and a bleak insurance outlook for Louisiana. "We opened for business with not one customer," Torrence said. But through old fashioned hard work and 24/7 attention to customers' needs, Torrence has grown to over 400 customers throughout Louisiana and Mississippi in less than three years.
Travis Torrence Insurance Agency primarily writes policies for Allstate Insurance, but has several other companies in its portfolio as well. Auto, home and renters policies are naturally among the most popular customer needs, but Torrence also offers an array of financial services including fixed and variable rate annuities.
"We take the approach of getting to know our customers and helping them to better understand their insurance and financial needs," he said. "Each customer has my cell phone number and I make myself available when their schedule allows - evenings, weekends, holidays they are off of work."
Torrence counts companies and municipalities among his customers by offering 401(K) and group insurance products such as cancer and disability policies.
He is also a strong believer in being involved with the West Feliciana Community. Torrence will soon begin his third year teaching Junior Achievement. He is the newly elected Chairman of the West Feliciana Boy Scouts fundraising committee, a member of Rotary and the President-elect of the Greater St. Francisville Chamber of Commerce.
