Let me start with what brought me over to State Farm. Back in 2004, I was working in the field as an adjuster for another company at that time. Well, on August 13, 2004, Hurricane Charlie hit Punta Gorda, FL. I was called down to assist and this really hit home for me. I was able to see how having the right insurance coverage can be beneficial to people, and how having the wrong insurance can really hurt people. I have several stories to tell, but all in all, some people had the coverages to get the repairs completed without a hiccup, but others didn’t. This is when I decided that I was going to become an Agent and to help educate people and help them understand the coverages so that they can make an educated decision on what fits their needs.
Before I came to State Farm, I made numerous calls to friends that are current Insurance Agents from several different companies. Towards the end of my research, I called back a good friend that owns several locations from a competitive company. He and I worked in the beverage industry together for many years, so I had built strong relationship with him. Since we did come from the beverage industry, he literally told me, “If you want to go to the KING of the Insurance Companies, go to State Farm!”. It was at that moment that I made a call to my current State Farm Agent and asked what I needed to do. This started the process and opened the door for me to become a State Farm Agent, and I am so thankful that I did.
We landed here in Buffalo and absolutely love it here. We have been here for just over two years and in May 2025, we moved to a new location on Hwy 75 (214 N. Buffalo Ave) and are truly excited about being here and the future within this amazing town. If you are in the area, stop in and say hello and grab a cup of coffee or bottle of water. We would love to have you.
Sincerely,
Alan Neal
