Some big changes have been happening at the Goodenow Insurance Agency. If you've been in the office lately, you may have seen a new face running around. Our newest team member, Jack Dunn, he was the owner of Dunn Financial Services, Inc. We have merged with his business and are now Goodenow Insurance and Dunn Financial. We will have an article on Jack in the next newsletter.

We have also launched a new website and our own Facebook page. Please visit those pages and give us your feed back or comment on any of our posts.

You may have also noticed a big picture of Don Goodenow in the SJ-R back in June. That is because we have purchased the former North Branch of the Lincoln Library and are in the process of remodeling that to become our new office.  
New Office Progress
If you have driven down North Grand Avenue East and noticed changes in the 700 block on the north side of the street, you might have some questions. The Goodenow Insurance Agency purchased the former North Branch of the Lincoln Library and are remodeling that building to make that our new home office.

Please check our Facebook Page for periodic updates and we'll also send you links in our newsletter.

Medicare Open Enrollement

Medicare's Annual Enrollment Period Drawing Near:  October 15th - December 7th      

 

If you are currently on Medicare or going to be turning 65 anytime in the next year, you will soon be bombarded by more information from more places than you thought existed.


The time to make next year's Medicare decision begins on October 15th and runs through December 7th. This is the time each year when you can change which Medicare plan and/or prescription drug plan you will have for the upcoming year. It's the time of the year when you can't turn on the TV without seeing some advertisement or open your mailbox without having some letter about an option that might be available to you. In most instances we have those options and can help you understand what it is that you just received.

 

While the types of plans available can be confusing to understand because of the number of changes that might occur, Jerry Faulkner or Don Goodenow can help you to understand how those changes might affect you.  

 

We believe that no one company is the best fit for everyone. In that light, we choose to represent several different companies representing several different choices for you.

 

It's not too soon to start planning. Call now to schedule an appointment to discuss the new plan information with us Monday through Saturday beginning October 1st, which is when the new plan information can be discussed. Appointments can be made to be in our office, your home or place of business, whichever you might prefer. 

 

We already have several appointments scheduled so please call early to schedule appointments so that we can coordinate best with you. The office number is (217)523-5443. You can reach Don at extension 12, or Jerry at extension 14. Jerry's cell number is (217)638-1938 and Don's cell number is (217)899-3300 or email Jerry at Jerry@Goodenowinsurance.com or Don at Goodenow@Goodenowinsurance.com

Excuses, Excuses.  What's Yours?
Five reasons people make buying life insurance anything but a top priority.

Buying life insurance rarely makes the top 10 on our to-do lists and we have plenty of excuses as to why. Here are the top reasons people push it off, and why these are not good ideas. Click here for full article.

Are you a Landlord?
Whether you see real estate as an investment opportunity or you're looking for ways to pay the mortgage on your old home as you wait for the seller's market to rebound, you may have considered being a landlord. Being a landlord, of course, is about more than just collecting a rent check every month. In...Read full article
