FORT WORTH, TX, March 01, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Insurance is a cost-effective way to help protect valuables, but State Farm agent Linda Allen has another idea that might help as well: Labels.
"As we carry more electronic gadgets in our daily lives--cell phones, laptop computers, tablets--the risk of loss or theft is greater than ever," said Allen, who has an insurance agency in Saginaw, Texas. "Experts recommend that you label your valuables so they can be returned to you in case they're found by authorities or a helpful person." Labels with name and contact information can help verify the owner, saving time, replacement costs and the valuable personal and business data the devices hold.
Allen has taken this advice a step further: Anyone who contacts her office can obtain free personal labels for their devices. The offer is available to anyone who has items to protect. She said the program would be especially valuable for travelers who carry many valuables with them across the country on a regular basis.
Allen hopes that the free labels will allow people to avoid the permanent loss of their phone or computer. "Labeling dramatically improves the odds of getting lost items back," she said.
For a free set of personal labels, visit Allen's office at 8101 Boat Club Road, Suite 240, call 817-236-7200 or e-mail her at [email protected]. Allen is the author of Out with Customer Service & In with People Service, a book about applying good service to every facet of life.
