Adkins Insurance is January 2019 Business of the Month

January 2, 2019 By Joe Pagano

Adkins Insurance at 26263 Gibraltar Rd, Flat Rock, MI

Doug Adkins started Adkins insurance in November of 1990. Just on the edge of the city limit, Doug began his small insurance business after working for some time at MET insurance. His drive to create his own mark lead Doug to opening his insurance agency with the intention of offering many options with many other companies. In offering more, Doug Adkins has created a unique insurance agency for the people of Flat Rock as we know it today. In 2011, Doug made the official move to Flat Rock by opening the new Adkins Insurance at the old Flat Rock theater. His presence within the Flat Rock community is visible in devoted involvement to the Flat Rock train depot and a member of Flat Rock Our Hometown Design Committee. Speaking further to his character, you’ll often see Doug plowing the sidewalks for neighboring businesses.

Doug and the Adkins Insurance Company also are a sponsor of the spring Cruzin’ Flat Rock Car Show.

Kristi is the face you will see walking into Adkins Insurance today. Kristi has been working with Doug since 2013, originally as a secretary. She then decided she would also obtain her insurance agent license in 2014, and later continued her education to obtain her Certified Insurance Service Representative (CISR) designation in 2018. Kristi also obtained a business degree from Henry Ford College in 2016. Kristi provides outstanding customer service, only adding to the profoundly helpful and personal nature of this Flat Rock business. This very nature is truly what defines Adkins Insurance. In working with Doug and Kristi, Adkins provides policies that feel as though they work for you and your budget. In acknowledging the importance of strong and successful small businesses in Flat Rock, it is important to consider the way Doug Adkins brings a personal feel to something so impersonal as insurance policy.

Adkins Insurance is located in the former Flat Roc Theater.

Adkins Insurance offers a wide variety of insurance;

Home
Auto
Commercial
Health, plus Medicare plans along with advantage plans
Bonds
Annuity’s

Adkins insurance is located at 26263 Gibraltar Rd #800, Flat Rock, MI 48134
