Venice, Florida - July 31st, 2006 - 1st Guard Corporation announced today that it met and surpassed their projected year-end goal for total number of "direct-bill" insured vehicles. Direct-bill business is comprised of individual owner operators that obtain insurance through 1st Guard®, and not through their fleet. At this pace, 1st Guard will likely set another record year.
"So far, 2006, has been a record-breaking year. The company has never experienced such tremendous growth in a short amount of time," stated Ed Campbell, Chairman of 1st Guard Corporation. "We set our goals within reason, but always try to strive for a little more. We had no idea we would reach our year-end goal by the end of the 2nd quarter. It is apparent that the word is out about 1st Guard and how we can save owner operators money on their truck insurance" said Campbell.
"It was just a matter of time before the word spread about the superior products and services we provide owner operators" added Courtney Wilson, Director of Marketing for 1st Guard. "The consistent marketing efforts are a key to our success. The proof is in the numbers."
