Member Testimonials
"The South Carolina Insurance News Service is many things to many people. It is about media relations, consumer education, regulatory and legislative networking and relationships, industry networking and relationships, legislative monitoring and relationships, media tracking, editorial review board networking visits, III relationships and information, and more. etc....It is really a little of everything and somehow delivers on it all.
"
- Bill Tucker, Nationwide Insurance
"I believe the South Carolina Insurance News Service is among the best run of any state insurance news service. The information provided by the SC INS, including legislative updates, compliance issues, media relations, and educational issues, are vital. And the organization that you provide is unparalleled among any industry trade group."
- Dan DeLamater, Southern Mutual Insurance Company
"There is no substitute for communication and education and nobody does that job better than the SCINS. The consumer as well as all media sources are much more knowledgeable about all aspects of insurance because of this effort."
- Larry Wilson, State Auto Insurance
"Membership in SCINS is the best source for information related to insurance legislation, updates on insurance news around the state and nation, and offers an opportunity to interact with others companies doing business in the state. We have many common interests and I think SCINS is the best opportunity for us to put up a united effort to demonstrate to the public what we really can do for them. I first became involved with SCINS because of the work done with the Arson Hotline. This effort is just one example of how we serve the public."
- Robert Bedell, Southern Mutual Church Insurance Company
"Farm Bureau was one of the founding members of the News Service. We have seen the organization grow from one with a single purpose for educating the public on a specific auto insurance issue to one where it can educate the public and the media on almost any insurance relevant topic. For all practical purposes it has become the first source that the local media (TV, radio and newspapers) considers when they want information about current insurance issues. The News Service also prepares a very comprehensive review of all pending insurance legislation in the state’s General Assembly.
While each of our member companies have their own unique slants on issues, the News Service offers a forum where we can come together to present a united front on issues of the date. I would encourage any insurer that writes in South Carolina to join the organization."
- Bruce Mackay, CPCU – Vice President, Operations, SC Farm Bureau Insurance Company
"State Farm has been a member of the News Service since the inception over 30 years ago and believes the News Service plays an integral part in our industry. The Insurance News Service offers benefits to member companies such as proactive and reactive media relations, speaks for the industry with one voice, and opportunities to build relationships with other members of the News Service."
- Bruce White, State Farm
""SCINS is the “go-to” source for information on the insurance industry in South Carolina among consumers, media, public policymakers and insurers. It is among the leaders of state insurance associations in utilizing the Internet as a powerful tool to broaden its communications reach to its key constituencies.""
- Cary Schneider, Insurance Information Institute
