FRANKLIN, Tenn. – With the addition of Matt Sykes to the HometownQuotes agent services team, HometownQuotes agents can expect another friendly voice on the other end of the line. With prior insurance agency experience, Sykes has keen insight to this industry and looks forward to assisting agents grow their businesses.
"It's a privilege to be here and I look forward to growing with HometownQuotes to make it a bigger and better place for agents to acquire leads and build their agencies," said Sykes.
Prior to coming on board with HometownQuotes, Sykes worked for an insurance agency in Brentwood, Tenn., calling leads and writing policies, gaining experience on the agent side of the insurance lead generation spectrum.
"As HometownQuotes continues to grow, our requirements for potential agent associates become more stringent. Bringing Matt on board will improve our productivity and help us give the agents that work with us more time and attention they deserve. Plus, his insight and ability to build a rapport with someone over the phone is invaluable to this business," said HometownQuotes Chief Executive Officer Hunter Ingram.
