In his five years with Saunders Insurance Agency, Scott Saunders has facilitated a 22% increase in direct written P&C premium and contributed to the agency’s 45% increase in gross profit over a 10-year period. So far this year, Saunders has written $145,000 in new business premium. He will speak at the annual Mountain State Agency Alliance/Strategic Insurance Agents Association Conference later this year on the use of Facebook and digital media in marketing – an area he is quite familiar with, having spearheaded the rebranding of Saunders Insurance Agency’s marketing campaign.
Last year, Saunders was elected secretary of the Downtown Revitalization Project, a nonprofit that incentivizes growth in downtown Gallipolis, Ohio. Saunders also has served on the Business Advisory Council for the University of Rio Grande Evans School of Business.
