It was a serious car accident that sparked a dramatic change in my career path.

I made a comfortable living throughout my professional career and felt satisfied with being able to provide for myself and my loved ones. I didn't think deeply about the future of my finances or what would happen to my loved ones if anything should happen to me. Then I was hit by a car on the way to work and my perspective completely changed. I was severely injured and saw my life flash before my eyes and didn’t think I would survive. Thankfully, I fully recovered. But I couldn’t stop thinking about how in one instant, I could have been killed, and my loved ones would be left completely on their own, without any financial protection. I immediately started researching my options and found solutions that made me feel confident that my loved ones would be fully taken care of if anything should happen to me.

I became passionate about highlighting the need for proper financial protection to everyone I knew, and when it came time for me to look for a change in my career, I decided to start my own insurance agency so I could help ensure the financial protection of as many people as possible. My name is Douglas Tomlinson. I am the founder of Tomlinson Insurance Agency. We are committed to mentoring future-minded tradesmen to help them achieve long-term financial security.

For almost a decade I have provided my clients with effective solutions to secure their financial future. Many of my clients have shared with me how appreciative they are that I don’t just hand them a piece of paper and bid them farewell, but I consistently check-in and make sure that they remain on the right track to achieve their long-term financial goals. With hindsight, I see my accident as a blessing as it led me to a career that allows me to positively impact so many lives.
