I am working on a few really provocative blog posts.  This one is provocative but is a repost of something that is really timely.

I hope you enjoyed a positively memorable Christmas and are now looking forward to the opportunities that a New Year will bring.

I am posting today about one agency customer whose Christmas was interrupted by a house fire.  Daniel lives in Cedartown and on Christmas Eve-Eve at about 7pm was shopping with his wife and 8 month old baby girl.  His cell phone rang and the local 911 operator advised him that the Cedartown Fire Department (CFD) was dispatched to and battling...]]></description><pubDate>Sat, 26 Dec 2009 16:02:10 -0600</pubDate><guid>http://www.beelerinsurance.com/blog.aspx?entry=f18dfb11-b2bb-43a5-8fb3-a1534407c84c</guid></item><item><title>Security Tips To Remember</title><link>http://www.beelerinsurance.com/blog.aspx?entry=e551f581-bd3a-473b-a326-3424c3e91f18</link><description><![CDATA[Hello Beeler Bloggers,
Today is Christmas Eve-Eve and we'll soon turn our attention to shopping, family gatherings, and some much needed time off work.

The shopping part got me to thinking about a list of personal security tips that have been around for some time and deserves to be repeated from time to time.  This list is sort of like an old dog  old but good

As many of you know I have never claimed to be the originator of the ideas that I have successfully used.  
Truth is I follow a variety of folks closely and cherry pick the ideas that are good for me or that I find interesting.

You finally did it!  You looked forward to this day for months and months  You paid your car/truck note off and you'll now have some extra money to spend.

Don't forget to contact your auto insurance agent and ask them to delete the loss payee clause from your auto insurance policy.
You may be asking yourself "why should I do this?" 

The reasons you should do this are because:

    The lender no longer has a legal interest in your vehicle

I thought you might get a kick out of this photo.


Did you know that in the Georgia personal auto insurance policy that "business use" voids coverage?  If you use your personal auto in any type of business be sure to notify your agent so he can endorse your personal auto policy or place your coverage on a business auto form.
Until next time,
Chris Beeler

If you're working at home  -- STOP-- and review your insurance coverage. Your homeowners insurance probably doesn't cover your business. A typical homeowners policy provides only $2,500 coverage for business equipment which is usually not enough to cover all of the business property. You also need coverage for liability and business interruption. 
To insure your business, you have three choices--endorsements to the homeowners policy, an in-home business policy or...]]></description><pubDate>Fri, 30 Oct 2009 07:35:29 -0500</pubDate><guid>http://www.beelerinsurance.com/blog.aspx?entry=791f2c34-c0c6-4f74-bed0-976c41915fb6</guid></item><item><title>Google Does Not Like My Blog?</title><link>http://www.beelerinsurance.com/blog.aspx?entry=4ffebaa8-a7ef-4303-8988-e2f1f482cbc9</link><description><![CDATA[Hello Beeler Bloggers,

1) Always contact your car insurance company immediately if there was any damage at all. You do not want to give them an excuse not to defend and indemnify you.
2) All car insurance policies, even a minimum limits $25,000.00 policy, will provide you with a free lawyer in the event you are sued .
