Here are 9 reasons why you should be doing business with Alexander Morford & Woo, Inc.

1.    The value of relationships:  At AMW we believe that solid, long-term relationships with our retail customers, underwriters, and colleagues are our greatest asset.  We cannot do it alone.

2.    Dedicated wholesale:  Shockingly, not all wholesalers pledge not to compete directly with their customers.  AMW’s sole allegiance and only distribution network is through professional retail insurance agents and brokers.  We believe that this alliance is best for us, for our agents and broker customers, and for our insurance carriers.

3.    The power of teams:  Effective leadership and collaboration produce efficient, comprehensive and responsive service that cannot be matched by individual effort.  At AMW we believe two heads are always better than one.

4.    Service:  AMW wants to be the best service company in the industry.  We take pride in our service standards, and it is our goal that every customer will have a story to tell about one of our staff going out of their way to make the agent’s day easier and serve their customers more efficiently.

5.    Independent excellence:  At AMW we delight in “leveling the playing field” when our client is up against a multi-national insurance conglomerate.  We have the knowledge, skills and markets to compete with anyone.

6.    Innovation:  AMW embraces the latest paperless, web and other office technologies to keep pace with rapidly evolving workplace efficiency tools.  This means that any person in the company can access any insurance file from their desk to answer a question or work through a problem.

7.    Experience:  The three founders of AMW represent over 105 years of combined insurance experience in their respective disciplines, and the average department manager is an industry veteran of over 20 years.

8.    Knowledge:  Every employee at AMW is encouraged and expected to become an expert in the types of coverage that they handle.  We feel that it is our imperative to know exposures and alternatives better than the companies who provide the coverage.  Company underwriters know what their company covers (sometimes).  AMW brokers and underwriters know what is available in the marketplace, both domestic and international.

9.    We care:  Every Thursday a group of volunteers (including one or more of the company Principals) meets in our kitchen to prepare lunch for the local homeless.  AMW actively supports a number of charitable causes and encourages staff to get involved in supporting those who are less fortunate.  We believe it is important not only to give money but to be actively, hands-on involved in our world and our community, in ways both big and small.
