Who's Number One?


If you are a college football fan like me, you’ve probably been amazed at all the volatility in the BCS standings, especially with the top ranked teams. It seems that on a weekly basis, there has been a major upset and whoever the new #1 and #2 teams are, they have been bounced out by someone else. It happened again this past weekend when Kansas was defeated at home by Missouri, who then claimed the #1 spot themselves. I can’t remember a football season that has been as unpredictable as this one. It makes for a very entertaining time for football fans.

How volatile is your business? Do you go through stretches where things seem topsy-turvy in your world? That may not be as entertaining to you as a college football season. The reality is that change and volatility are part of any business or industry. How you respond to it will decide your success or failure.

The one constant you always have is how well you present your company. Risk positioning is the concept of making your organization as attractive to insurance companies as possible. This will allow you to get the best pricing available and save you MONEY! A great by-product of that is that with better housekeeping and an eye directed at improved risk management, you will have less claims and reduce the hidden costs of those nasty things. It’s a win-win all the way around. Regardless of what’s happening in a volatile insurance marketplace, you will always be positioned for great pricing on your premiums.
