Our Story
Every business starts with a vision. Anthony’s journey began after successfully building and selling a previous medical business, inspiring him to create a local agency that prioritizes customer relationships over impersonal service.
As he transitioned from that success, a lingering thought grew into a compelling vision: to create an insurance company that felt more like a supportive friend and less like a faceless entity.
From One Vision to the Next
​Selling his previous venture was both an end and a beginning. It provided a rare opportunity to reflect on what truly mattered in business and in life. The idea of starting You Insurance Agency wasn't just about entering the home and auto insurance market; it was about revolutionizing it. The vision is to move away from the impersonal experiences often associated with insurance and build a company that prioritized the community and personalized service.
Our Mission: Community First
In North Carolina, where neighborhoods thrive on connections and trust, we saw a chance to weave these values into the fabric of You Insurance Agency. Our mission is simple yet profound: to provide home, auto, and life insurance with a personal touch. We believe in putting people first, understanding their needs, and offering support every step of the way.
Looking Ahead
As we continue to grow, our focus remains steadfast on the people of North Carolina. We are driven by a passion to make insurance straightforward, empathetic, and accessible. We aim to be the first call you make when you need guidance and the ally you trust when protecting your most important assets.
