Four local Allstate agents recently received “Quality Service Agency” awards from Allstate Insurance Company. Recipients of this prestigious award were: Brett Stenmoe, Bothell; Mike McGinness, Bothell; Bob Smith, Woodinville; and Steve Lindstrom, Woodinville.

These awards indicate that these agencies are among the top at Allstate in customer satisfaction and retention and that they have consistently exceeded customer expectations throughout the past year.

In order to achieve the award, these agencies had to meet specific customer satisfaction measures and must have customer satisfaction processes in place that support Allstate’s goal of providing outstanding customer service.

Six sales leaders from Allstate’s Northwest Region have been recognized by the company for their outstanding leadership and have received the 2005 Allstate Key Manager award. The award winners are Cindy Hill, Herb Hossfeld, Jennifer Oldenburg, Shawn Rogerson, Mike Schrand and Larry Wenneborg.

The Key Manager award recognizes leaders who have accomplished their sales management goals throughout the year by effectively managing the markets and agencies they oversee. These individuals are among 100 sales managers throughout the country to receive this award. There are nearly 600 Allstate sales leaders throughout the United States.
