Did you know the odds of picking a perfect March Madness bracket is a mere 1 in  9,223,372,036,854,775,808. That is 1 in 9.2 quintillion, according to many mathematicians! Each year, fans spend countless hours working on their brackets. Some are more familiar with Duke’s perimeter shot than their own insurance policies… even though the odds of getting hit by an uninsured driver or having a major loss to your home or business, are astronomically higher than a 16 seed upsetting a 1.

At Buckner insurance, we are all too familiar with the game of statistics. We know anything can happen at any time to even those with the best odds. Like all teams preparing for their season, it’s best to have a game plan and be ready. Life moves at a fast pace just like basketball and you never know when a turnover could cost you the game.

Start with reviewing all of your policies with your agent at least once a year or every time you have a major life event, like adding new players to your team, when your oldest goes off to the Pros, when you acquire that championship ring, or build a new stadium. We are here not only to help coach you but also to protect you. Think of us as your full court press defense against life’s unexpected!

​Grange insurance is one of the many companies we represent and write for in our agency. They are such an awesome company! A couple of weekends ago, Grange Insurance invited all of their agents and their families to the Columbus Zoo. We got to hold a baby kangaroo!! Here are some pictures from our zoo adventure!! 

Ashley has been with Buckner Insurance a little over 12 years now. She is licensed in Personal and Commercial insurance and has a big hand in all of our marketing and community outreach. She has a son named Colton and a dog named Rigs.
