Spotlight on Harris, Reed & Seiferth Insurance Group

​Jill Emeny

This week we meet Britany Reed of Harris, Reed & Seiferth Insurance Group in Miami, who shares her passion for nurturing her business, talks about the challenges of unplugging, and also offers some advice for those just starting out.

J: How did you get started with your business?

B: On starting Harris, Reed & Seiferth Insurance Group, I was looking for a career and life change, and a business that I could dedicate my life to building and nurturing. I wanted to build something that I could establish financial strength, freedom and independence for myself, and also provide that fortitude to my clients. I felt this business called upon all of my aspirations and business experiences. It enabled me to build a career that provides me and those lives I touch with lasting purpose and honor. I set very high standards of excellence and integrity for myself, my staff and the results I provide to my clients, which provides me with the foundation to earn the opportunity to work with the people I dedicate myself to.


J: How do you make use of Google products in your business?

B: G Suite is a key player for us, coupled with the ability to incorporate apps like DocHub, Contacts, Analytics, Forms, Drive, Hangouts, Calendar. Even Maps keeps us running efficiently. We're always looking for latest Google updates on recommended partner applications.  


J: What’s your biggest challenge today?

B: Unplugging. I’m HORRIBLE at this. I try to put conditions in place so that I don’t email after 8pm and I don’t respond to clients after 12pm on Saturday, but it always seems to creep in.


J: What do you hope for in a year’s time?

B: As we are currently licensed in seven states, we are hoping to solidify licenses for the remaining, or at least half, within the next year.


J: What’s your best advice for a new business owner?

B: Anything is possible. Dream big, aim high in your ethical and professional standards of excellence and, with relentless dedication, you can achieve a business and life that is filled with great purpose, substance and fulfillment.
