Testimonials

I don’t know why I didn’t call you guys sooner than I did.  Everything from the first consultation, to going through the process, gathering the information you needed, to the final product was an extremely surprising and most pleasant experience.  For my business I now have three times the coverage, an extra $100K in life insurance and my premiums total  over $1000 less than they used to.  The ability that Insurance Brokers of Minnesota has to “shop my business” to all their different companies that they represent got me the absolute best deal I could get.  It started with Gary Sorenson, but he handed it off to Ashely and Josh and it could not have gone more smoothly.  They were true pros through the entire process, explained everything to me clearly, answered my questions, and at the end I received a binder with all of my coverages clearly outlined and total premiums due.  Simple, straight forward and professional.  I have to say that in the past I am not sure I always trusted my agent to feel I was getting the best deal.  With this team I can tell you I have complete trust and KNOW that I am being represented with the best coverage at a great rate.  You can trust these guys at Insurance Brokers of Minnesota.  Thanks Gary and team and I look forward to working with you on our new location opening soon!

Over the years, Insurance Brokers of MN has provided services to North Star Services Management and I have been nothing but impressed! It is all too rare these days to know someone personally and professionally who demonstrates integrity and honesty. I am honored to be counted as Gary’s friend rather than just another client.

Owners Tony & Josh Zens of Prince Bait said after a review with Gary he was able to improve their coverage and save them $5,200 per year on their business insurance.

I have been doing business with Gary Sorenson and Insurance Brokers for over 20 years. Gary has taken good care of me as a customer and has really paid attention to detail on every aspect of my account. Insurance Brokers is always making suggestions to strengthen my policies but also help me watch my overhead expenses. In addition to my business insurance I was able to bring my medical insurance needs to Gary and have been very satisfied with my decision to do so. Gary and the rest of his team, especially Sarah, are all a pleasure to work with.

In the expansive western MN I found myself with major vehicle damage. Aric did an amazing job making sure the process flowed. The crew at IB absolutely had my best interests in mind, and I was in a rental the next day before noon. My truck was fixed and good as new within 3 days. Thanks again to the IB team for keeping my vacation going

I am writing to share with you my experience with Erik Ebeling. I made an appointment beginning of October 2015. I needed someone to help me with finding insurance for myself because I was going to retire and I had no idea where to start. There are so many insurance companies and different policies that to me it is overwhelming.

Erik was recommended out of a list I had of brokers. My appointment with him went well. He is very knowledgeable and listened to what I was needing and wanting in a plan. He gave me his time and attention and didn’t hurry me.

Erik is friendly and easy to talk to. “He has my vote and business!”

There are three things I look for in a professional service provider, knowledge, commitment and relevance. Wyn delivers all three without a doubt. If it’s important, call Wyn first.

Very personable and worked hard to get me a savings with quality insurance.

In the years I have worked with you I have always been impressed by your integrity and concern for your clients. It is rare to find someone whose 1st thought is to the welfare of his clients.

We have been with Wyn for around 5 years now and there is nobody else that compares! His customer service is by far the best in the business. He can take any question that you have and give the simple answer that you understand. We will definitely be sticking with Wyn for years to come!

In my twenty plus years of being in business, I have had about five different insurance agents. None of which I felt inclined to write a letter of recommendation for. This is not the case with Chad Bertram, I had to ask him for additional business cards, because I had passed out all the original ones he gave me, when we first met. These cards were passed out to both friends and business contacts who were looking to better their insurance policies. Chad Bertram was able to give me good coverage advice, significantly improved my insurance costs and improved my AM Best rating for the insurance companies I was using. The AM Best rating actually plays a much larger role in my insurance than I realized, there are a lot of agents and insurance companies out there, but if you are insured by one with a lower AM Best rating it will be reflected in the level of service you receive. Take it from someone who knows and is still dealing with my previous insurance company, and has not heard from his previous agent of 10 years regarding the disputed funds. Chad Bertram will work hard to get your business and will keep working had for you afterwards.

I have had my insurance through Chad for over two years. No matter what issues I have, he has been very willing to assist me and get me the information that I need. He is well versed in all types of insurance planning where other agents are generally unaware. Overall Chad has been great to deal with

My husband and I decided to see if The Michael Zumbusch Agency (Insurance Brokers of MN) could save us money on our insurance coverage. Going with them saved us $900 a year and we increased our coverage considerably on our homeowners. We are glad we left our former company to go with Wilson Mutual. We enjoyed dealing with Dan as he worked hard looking out for our best interest.

Thank you to Mike Zumbusch for all your time and effort in putting together a great package for our insurance needs. We totally appreciate the great customer service and the commitment to answer all our questions.

Our appreciations to Mike, Teri and Kim for your time, experience and energy put into finding this great package for us. We have never been excited about insurance….until now. We really feel as though your motives and interests are truly for the best interest of your clients. I look forward to working with you and recommending you to others

Thank you so much Kim!!! You have been so wonderful to work with! I will tell everyone I know who is looking for insurance that this is the agency to deal with and you’re the person to ask for! Thank you so much again!

Ben reviewed and updated my business and workers comp insurance to make sure there were no gaps in coverage. He is knowledgeable and works hard to ensure a quality insurance product. He is willing and able to answer any questions I have and even offers to help new businesses get set up correctly andon the road to success.

We have been dealing with Harold for over twenty years. We have nothing but positive things to say about Harold and staff. Its so nice to have trust and friendship with your insurance representative.

We have known and dealt with Harold for close to 30 years. He is a very responsible agent who is easy to work with and always strives to do his best for his clients. He is not only our insurance agent, but also became a personal friend.

Insurance Brokers of MN, Inc. has been a great asset to our Company. Our agent Harold Matson is always looking for ways to keep us with competitive quotes. Whenever our needs change Harold quickly responds to our needs. Also we recently made an insurance claim and our agent quickly followed up to make sure our losses were recovered. 

We switched from our agent to Insurance Brokers of MN Agent Chad Nelson IN PL. We loved the ease of doing business and the 24 hour service we receive. Coupled with friendly, knowledgeable staff, Chad & Insurance Brokers of MN made our switch an easy choice!

Greg and Becky were extremely helpful in finding me an insurance company that would work with my home office business. Fast, efficient and courteous. Thank you!

Greg & Becky Ott of Insurance Brokers of Minnesota – Jordan, MN office have been our Commercial and Personal Insurance Agents for the past decade. These two are a wealth of knowledge when it comes to insurance and have a great staff working with them. Greg & Becky are sure to remind me each year to review all of our policies with them and they ALWAYS find ways to save me more money each year by making adjustments upon their review. You won’t be disappointed if you let Insurance Brokers of MN, Inc. handle all of your insurance needs.

Greg at Insurance Brokers of MN in Jordan, MN was the best agent to work with. He really got things done for my company. He is very kind and understanding.

Greg and Becky are awesome to work with.I cannot say enough good things about them and their company.

I have to tell you, Greg Ott is amazing! I called him with a Medica question and he answered it and then some……..saved me a ton of money and showed me how to get my vaccine paid for by Medicare Part D, whatever that is!!!! He is the best in his field…a good partner to have.

I just wanted to send a quick note to let you know how happy Louise and I were with the first-rate customer service that was provided to us when our car was damaged last month in the deer collision. From start to finish, beginning with Natalie at your office, right on through to Deborah Davis and Lisa Laramee at the Auto Club Insurance Association, the claims process was quick, painless , and above all, courteous. Customer service at its best – thanks!

Jay Peterson and the insurance carrier Acuity have provided us with outstanding service. We were with another carrier for 40 years and decided to switch when Jay gave us quotes which were 40% less. Within 3 months of activation we unfortunately had 3 claims (rare for us) that have been handled with extreme quickness and efficiency. Jay and Acuity claim representatives have been absolutely ideal to work with by showing genuine concern for everyone involved, great understanding and communication of the process and pro-active leadership in closing the claims. We couldn’t be happier and highly recommend them both.

Jay Petersen has been our Insurance agent since we started our erosion control business in 1999. He is now helping us cover our next generation.

My husband and I were shocked when we received a 40% increase on our homeowner’s policy after experiencing hail damage to our roof and siding.  Having never had a claim before, we just couldn’t believe the increase. 

I contacted Gary Sorenson and explained how my homeowner’s had increased and asked if he would be willing to provide me with a quote on both my auto’s and home.  He agreed and provided me with quotes from two insurance companies. I was shocked at the improved coverage and the annual savings of over $1,800. 

I really appreciate the attention to detail and the advice that my auto coverage was very low.  I wasn’t receiving this kind of service in the past.

It was nice to work with an agent that actually cares and looked out for my interest.

I would highly recommend Gary Sorenson and the Insurance Brokers staff.

Thank you Gary & Tawni!

Erdman Automation has worked with Insurance Brokers for about 12 years now. They have provided excellent customer service and have been available for all of our needs. I would recommend them to any person or company who is looking for a new insurance agency.

We recently purchased a resort on Lake of the woods near Baudette, MN. Gary Sorenson and his staff at Insurance Brokers of Mn, Inc. have been very helpful and informative. Dealing with insurance can be an overwhelming situation with any small business. We are comfortable knowing we have experience on our side, and people we can call on with any questions we may have. We are relieved to have Gary and his staff, using their knowledge and background to help us make our business successful with the correct insurance coverage.

Gary Sorenson of Insurance Brokers of Minnesota has been thorough and fair in making sure that we are covered properly and not spending extra premium dollars on coverage that we don’t need.

After we did a complete review of our coverages with Gary Sorenson from IBMN We changed over and vastly improved our coverages PLUS saved over $5,000 thousand on our annual premiums. We also changed all our personal insurance and company group health!!

I recently lost my job and will be without insurance soon, your business was recommended to me , for some direction and assistance.

I have had 2 meetings with Erik Ebeling and he was of great assistance. He took the time to ask questions, offer assistance and start the process for me, in a very professional and compassionate manner.

Erik took a very troubling and stressful subject for me and my family, ans at least got us pointed in the right direction for help. A big thank you to Erik for his assistance with us.

I would easily recommend your company’s services to anyone.

We own and operate Margarito’s Mexican Restaurant in Byron, MN. We have been in business several years. During these several years…we have had to deal with a few different insurance companies and a few different agents. We have never had a claim….although some act like we did. Rates went up and up. Agents acted like we were only a policy number. (And out of sight-out of mind.) We knew Wyn Alexander and he is a customer of our ours. We knew that he was an insurance agent and decided to ask him about insurance since we were not happy about the company that we had been with. Well we change companies. ….and dealt with Wyn. Then when Wyn went on his own …we ended up following him again because we were suddenly …”just another policy number” and didn’t like all the unsolved issues we had with the agent that we were passed on to. Now if we call “Wyn” for anything..we will get our issue taken care of promptly. Wyn has our back. Our headaches have been a thing of the past. Well you know.. (like us) as a business owner in whatever business that you are in -you have other things to do and worry about then trying to track down your agent.

Wyn found the best coverage for my business at a great rate. Wyn and his team have been great to work with.

Wyn takes care of our home and auto insurance needs. The service is great and he always understands our needs. We definitely recommend him.

I started using Chad for our auto and home insurance after my wife and I purchased our first car together in September of 2008. Having worked for Chad earlier in my life, I knew that he was a very hardworking, honest person that would get us the best deal that he could offer. It is really nice to have someone who knows what they are doing, who is truthful to the client, and who is easy to get in contact with to answer questions. Chad shopped around and gave us a few different options, allowing us to find the best rate we could receive, which in turn allowed us to save money. Chad is always willing to work hard and put in the time to make sure that his clients are satisfied and that they dont have to worry about their insurance policy. He is also a great friend and someone who not only with service his client, but also get to know them. We are very happy with our service and look forward to working with Chad in the future!

Thank you for the solution that you found for me and always looking out for my best interest.

We have been with Steven Graham’s agency for over 10 years. We have two businesses and all of our personal policy’s with Steve’s agency. We had a hail damage claim a few years ago and Steve and his staff were right on it. They made the whole process easy and run smoothly. They are always available to answer all of our questions whenever we call them, which we very much appreciate. I highly recommend the Steven Graham Agency with Insurance Brokers of Minnesota for all your insurance needs

Thank you Mike for taking care of all of our insurance needs. You took the time to find out exactly what our insurance needs were and went above and beyond what we expected! We have never experienced such great service from another insurance company. Special thanks to Kim and Annie as well for ongoing SUBURB customer service. You guys are great!

Mike has been our insurance agent for over fifteen years. In that time he has saved us thousands of dollars on our policies. He has always been very easy to contact and very quick to meet any of our insurance needs. He has been very proactive with our insurance coverages as our lives and insurance needs have changed. Mike and his staff are true insurance professionals; offering unmatched knowledge and experience, with the individual service that you would expect from a good friend. I trust Mike’s advice and service to protect my family from life’s unforeseen events.

I just want to say thanks for always being there for me every time I call, I can honestly say this is the most happy I have been with an insurance company ever!

Harold has been our insurance agent for over ten years and has always given us great service in a friendly and personal manner, which is important in the fast-paced, transient society in which we live.

Harold has been our agent for twenty plus years and with different insurance companies. He has always looked out for us to receive the best price. He is there when you need him to help with a claim or just answer a question.

We have been dealing with Harold for over twenty years. We have nothing but positive things to say about Harold and staff. Its so nice to have trust and friendship with your insurance representative.

I’ve been insured with Insurance Brokers Of MN for 5 years. The ease of doing business with Chad Nelson and his professional staff make it an easy choice for me and my family. I happily recommend all my friends and family to Chad Nelson and Insurance Brokers of MN.

Greg was referred to me as an expert in group health plans – and he is. Greg is knowledgeable about all the various health companies and their many group plans. He saved me time by sorting through the plans and making the calls to find out critical pieces of information that helped me make an informed decision for myself and my small business. His expertise has been invaluable.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Greg Ott when searching for health insurance. The first agent I spoke with recommended that I avoid applying with the major insurance companies because I would likely be denied due to pre-existing conditions. She suggested a high premium plan for uninsurable individuals and quickly dismissed me. When I contacted Greg Ott, he immediately began making phone calls on my behalf and encouraged me to apply for coverage with the major insurance companies to obtain the most affordable care possible. Greg was patient, diligent, and addressed my concerns throughout the entire process. Thanks to Greg’s advice and willingness to go the extra mile, I was approved for a lower premium policy with a major carrier. I highly recommend Greg Ott to anyone seeking assistance with insurance.

My wife and I find Greg and his staff professional and willing to take the extra step to have a satisfied client.

Jay and his team have assisted me with my home and auto insurance for many years. I continue to be a satisfied customer because of the proactive reviews and attention to detail as my insurance needs change. They do all the leg work! I recently received a renewal for my auto insurance that seemed high. Natalie, from Jay’s team, spent a number of hours working with Travelers on my behalf to clean up issues and presented me with a renewal rate much less than expected. I cannot express how much I appreciate the attention to detail. Totally would not want to be doing this on my own! Thanks for all the wonderful years of service.

Jay and Tou have been great to work with for all my insurance needs. Not knowing much about home business insurance and wanting to be fully protected, they took the time to explain every detail, answer every question, and provide me with great coverage at competitive prices. I highly recommend them for any personal or business insurance needs. Thank you!

We needed a broker we could trust and someone we knew had the banks best interests in mind. Not only does Jay provide insurance on our buildings but he was able to assist with our Workmans Compensation insurance as well. Everything we needed with one broker. Jay is honest, trustworthy and versatile
