Wright-Gardner Insurance Associate Publishes First Children’s Book
Jan 08, 2010 – Hagerstown, Maryland: Wright-Gardner's own, Blakeley Jackson, took two years to write a book about her own personal journey when faced with a Dad that was sent to Iraq. She had a hard time explaining to her children why he was leaving and couldn't find any resources to help her that were not focused on war and fighting.
So since she couldn't find a book, she decided to write one of her own. Her book has examples that parents can follow and engage their children in to show the missing parent they still care. One of her examples deals with a little boy who sets up a calendar, that not only counts down the days until his parent returns but encouraged him to write in the calendar space what he did every day so he could share this when his dad came home.

No need to surf the net to find what insurance products and services are right for you, your family, and your businesses. Through our useful links and educational videos, you have everything you need to make an educated decision.
Hagerstown, Maryland - August 1, 2009 - Hagerstown's Wright-Gardner Insurance, one of the leading agencies in Maryland for close to 100 years, has announced the addition of the first three-dimensional insurance Web site in the state.
"Since the Internet was first used as a communications tool, insurance agency websites (including ours) were essentially one-dimensional brochures. We decided to make our site much more effective by bringing it alive with three-dimensional features to better communicate with our clients…and vice-versa." Those words of Christian Wright, Executive Vice President and majority owner of Wright-Gardner, are how he explains his agency's foray into the digital world.
"While we all know the Internet is a powerful tool, we weren't taking advantage of its incredible capabilities. E-mail, live chat, videos, social networking are increasingly becoming the primary business communications media. We needed a way for our clients to reach us instantly, evaluate their polices, look for additional products and actually conduct business on line. We needed a website that was exciting, informative, educational, and, yes, entertaining," added Mr. Wright.
The new site, www.wrightgardner.com contains voice-over introductions, 75 live videos, smart forms for quoting, and a series of communications tools including on-line chat, glossaries, quizzes, and practical help for making tactical financial decisions.
Mr. Wright concludes: " We invite anyone, client or not, to visit our exciting website and witness the Internet move we think heralds the future. While we are proud of our new site, we know it will continue to be enhanced in our quest to find new ways to better serve our clients”.
