When it comes to buying insurance, you have a lot of options. Should you call the company you see on TV? Should you click a button online?
At Buttrey Wulff Mamminga Insurance Agency, we believe the smartest choice is working with an Independent Insurance Agent.
If you’ve never worked with one before, you might be wondering, “What exactly is an independent agent, and why do I need one?”
Here is a simple breakdown of the powerful advantages that come with partnering with an independent agency like ours.
What is an Independent Insurance Agent?
Think of your insurance needs like shopping for a new car.
- A “Captive” Agent (the alternative) is like a salesperson who only works for one car brand (e.g., “Toyota Only”). They can only offer you Toyota models, no matter what your specific needs are.
- An Independent Agent is like a seasoned car broker who has access to an entire multi-brand dealership. We work with multiple top-rated insurance companies—not just one.
The Key Difference: We are not employees of a specific insurance company; we are independent advocates who work for you.
🎯 The Top 5 Reasons to Choose Buttrey Wulff Mamminga
Working with an independent agent is all about getting the right coverage at the right price, with a personal touch.
1. The Power of Choice: We Shop, You Save
This is our single biggest advantage. When you come to us, we don’t just give you one quote. We take your information and shop your policy across all the reputable carriers we partner with.
- The Result: You get to see competitive quotes and coverage options from a diverse pool of insurance providers, ensuring you get the best fit without having to make dozens of calls yourself. This saves you significant time and often money.
2. Personalized Expertise, Not a Call Center Script
When you call an 800-number, you speak to a different person every time. When you work with Buttrey Wulff Mamminga, you are working with local professionals right here in the community.
- We Understand You: We take the time to truly understand your specific situation—whether you own a boat, run a home business, or just bought your first house. This personal relationship means we can recommend custom coverage that generic online policies often miss.
3. We Are Your Advocate When Disaster Strikes
Filing a claim can be stressful. If you bought your policy directly from a big national company, you are on your own to navigate the claims process.
- We Fight For You: As your independent agent, we act as your personal advocate. We help guide you through the claims process, answer your questions, and work with the insurance company on your behalf to help ensure a fair and timely resolution.
4. Coverage That Grows With You
Life changes fast: you get married, you buy a new car, you start a family, or you launch a new business. Your insurance needs to keep up.
- Yearly Review: We don’t just sell you a policy and disappear. We proactively check in to review your current policies, make sure you still have the best pricing, and adjust your coverage as your life evolves. We ensure there are no gaps in your protection.
5. Local and Trustworthy
We live and work where you do. Our business is built on a strong reputation within the community, which means we are dedicated to providing ethical, reliable, and trustworthy service.
- A Familiar Face: You can walk into our office, shake our hand, and discuss your policy face-to-face. We are your neighbors, committed to your financial security.

At Buttrey Wulff Mamminga Insurance Agency, we deliver the best of both worlds: the competitive rates and broad options of national carriers combined with the personalized service and local expertise of a trusted neighbor.
