Wright-Gardner Insurance – First Agency in Maryland to Deploy New Web Technology.

Aug. 6, 2009 - PRLog -- Hagerstown, Maryland – Hagerstown’s Wright-Gardner Insurance, one of the leading agencies in Maryland for close to 100 years, has announced the addition of the first three-dimensional insurance Web site in the state.

“Since the Internet was first used as a communications tool, insurance agency websites (including ours) were essentially one-dimensional brochures. We decided to make our site much more effective by bringing it alive with three-dimensional features to better communicate with our clients…and vice-versa.”

Those words of Christian Wright, Executive Vice President and majority owner of Wright-Gardner, are how he explains his agency’s foray into the digital world.

“While we all know the Internet is a powerful tool, we weren’t taking advantage of its incredible capabilities. E-mail, live chat, videos, social networking are increasingly becoming the primary business communications media. We needed a way for our clients to reach us instantly, evaluate their polices, look for additional products and actually conduct business on line.  We needed a website that was exciting, informative, educational, and, yes, entertaining,” added Mr. Wright.

The new site, www.wrightgardner.com contains voice-over introductions, 75 live videos, smart forms for quoting, and a series of communications tools including on-line chat, glossaries, quizzes, and practical help for making tactical financial decisions.

Mr. Wright concludes:   “ We invite anyone, client or not, to visit our exciting website and witness the Internet move we think heralds the future. While we are proud of our new site, we know it will continue to be enhanced in our quest to find new ways to better serve our clients”.
