Keystone is continuing its expansion in the Midwest by launching in Iowa, signing on new Pioneer Partner Kingsgate Insurance of Fort Dodge. The announcement was made today by Keystone Executive Director of Franchise Sales & Expansion Mark Maurer and Kingsgate agency principal Ryan Smith.
“We are very pleased to have Kingsgate be our first agency in Iowa,” said Maurer. “Highly recommended by numerous agencies, the Smith family has built an outstanding operation and they will be great contributors to the Keystone culture.”
“We chose to partner with Keystone for multiple reasons but the two key drivers were: one, agencies across the country that we have come to know and respect greatly valued their partnership with Keystone; and two, philosophically their organization aligns with ours,” explained Smith. “They are focused on helping dynamic agencies continue to develop and deliver outstanding tools and resources to their valued clients. At the end of the day, that’s our objective.”
