The people at this office are exceptionally responsive. David Gamble has assembled a full team that can support agents across all our product lines. For newer agents and staff, the training that they have available is the best in the industry. They office is constantly hosting continued education classes that range from life and financial services to commercial. In addition, the promotions that the office runs do a great job of motivating not only agents, but also the staff. Finally, I appreciate that the recruiting team at the office has been persistent about referring new staff candidates to my office. As a former district manager, I have a lot of respect for the operation that Dave manages.

I began working with insurance in 2012 and the journey has been an excellent experience. Dave’s office comes with a lot of perks. I’ve heard that other dms don’t offer the same level of support that we receive. The district office employs a variety of specialists including Jeff who is a master of commercial and Mary who focuses on life. When I need something from them or Dave, they’re always available to help. In fact, Dave recently offered to hold weekly meetings with me to ensure that I have all the tools I need to continue to grow. I appreciate how much passion he has for his business and for Farmers.

I have been working under Dave at the district office for over 5 years. My job in the office is to help develop products and train agents with their Personal Lines insurance needs (Home, Auto, Specialty). Along with training and development I work with agents to troubleshoot issues and help review policies. My goal is to provide a resource for new and experienced agents to make sure their customers are getting the best service possible. Even though I may not be an agent, I would say the best part of working here is seeing the agents meet and exceed their goals. I love the staff here; District 2958 is awesome!

Dave is a talented manager. His office provides over 100 years of generational experience that I can draw on for aid. While a preestablished book is beneficial in this industry, I have experienced significant growth in my business despite opting to develop organically. Only recently have I started to yield a return on my investment, however I feel that I am building something that will pay dividends for decades to come. The team at this office has been essential to my success.

Having recently launched my agency under Dave’s guidance, I have had access to many perks. I’ve been able to utilize the knowledge of his staff to develop my office in its early stages. Everyone has been incredibly reliable and ready to assist at all hours of the day. They’ve aided me in building a strong marketing strategy that has driven rapid growth in my new agency.

Dave has built a fantastic team who helped me become an insurance agent. I have never worked with a company where the support was so easy to reach. Having a district office with a DM who is willing to invest heavily in his staff is invaluable. The ability to contact Amor for P&C and Jeff for Commercial lines issues has heavily impacted my growth.

As a new Farmers agent, starting my own business has been a great experience. Becoming an agency owner has been a smooth process from the recruitment stage to opening my location. I couldn’t be happier with the district that I am a part of. My district manager has done a great job at building up a team of product line specialists who are always there to lend their expertise. I feel like the district is my own personal team who is there to enable my growth.

As a California native, I have owned an agency under Farmers Insurance since the 80’s. I have a passion for my business and am still satisfied with my decision to become an insurance agent. In my tenure, I’ve educated myself about the industry and I’ve seen district managers come and go. Given the amount of experience we have, there’s not a huge need for support from the district office. That said, if we ever need anything, they’re on it. Mary Deckman in particular has been an excellent resource for quoting and binding life policies. One of the guys in my office, Frank has a 19-year-old son. Frank told his son that if he ever wants to get into the insurance business, Dave Gamble is the way to go to be successful.My main concern is with the company. I don’t want to see Farmers pull away from allowing us to provide the level of support our customers deserve. We need to be able to do what’s right for our customers instead of being forced to focus on sales.

I could not say enough if I had all the time in the world. District 58 is amazing. I have worked with Farmers for many years and have never come across a District that is so helpful, knowledgeable, supportive and kind. Everyone who makes up this district is a true treasure. From the staff in the district office to the quality of agents in this district, everyone is fantastic. I personally have felt supported and appreciated every step of the way. I appreciate all the training, personal one on one time, pep talks, advice, marketing ideas, system help, etc. Dave Gamble is the driving force for this district, and it shows. All the special gifts he gives in such a kind and humble way, flow down to his staff. Dave really is a genuinely wonderful human being, and he holds himself and everyone to the highest standards of ethics. This district makes me want to be a better agent and a better person.

Dave Gamble is one of the best dms at Farmers. He is supportive. He provides guidance and encouragement which is often needed. He cares what happens to his agents. His Commercial Expert Jeff McMillian works his heart out to help you succeed in your commercial business efforts. He is very clever and inventive on finding ways to write business the right way. Mary Deckman- could not ask for a better life specialist. She will help you win your case with great tips and ideas. Dave has a great team and you could get a better district to work than this one.If you are considering being an agent talk to Dave.
