Travelers Auto Insurance To Begin Direct Sales
Sunday, March 15th, 2009
Diane Levick in the Hartford Courant reports that Travelers Auto Insurance is expanding into the direct-to-consumer sales market. Unlike many major auto insurance companies, Travelers has solely relied on independent insurance agents until now. However, with an increasing amount of policies sold directly (two-thirds as of 2007), the company has joined firms such as Progressive Auto Insurance and Hartford Auto Insurance in selling through both avenues.
Currently, the Travelers auto insurance quotes available online or over the phone will be identical to those available through agents, though the insurer reserves the right to change those rates in either direction.
