Congratulations again to La Maison Title in Tampa and St. Petersburg – a Top 10 Alliant National agent in Florida. We raised a glass in honor of their fabulous team during our celebratory dinner.
Lisa Yates, (Chris Yates – Lisa’s son) and Donna More Esq. representing Alliant National, with Angi Comas and her staff at La Maison Title.
The claims and Florida underwriting departments have collaborated to create a paid internship program at Alliant National.
The internship program was created to foster greater awareness and interest in our unique industry, by engaging with students at local law schools.
The program kicked into gear last March, with the selection of the program’s first intern, Kamilah Brennen. Kamilah attended George Washington University for her undergraduate studies and is currently attending Florida A&M University College of Law. She is in the Top 5 percent of her class and graded onto the Law Review.
In her downtime, Kamilah enjoys playing softball, basketball, and mountain biking. She also enjoys reading and watching sci-fi books and movies.
Kamilah will be working at our Oviedo office and will have the opportunity to shadow the underwriting and claims teams, and observe other departments’ functions.
We interviewed several applicants at local law schools, and Kamilah stood out to us as a very caring and bright applicant. We are very excited to have Kamilah with us!
Alliant National is the sole title insurance underwriter to achieve this information assets security certification

ISO 27001 is an information security standard published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), the world’s largest developer of voluntary international standards, and the International Electrotechnical Commission.
Alliant National’s initial certification was issued in May 2015 by A-lign, an independent and accredited certification body based in the United States. In 2018 Alliant National was recertified until 2021 subject to successfully completing annual independent surveillance audits.
“We are very pleased to have successfully completed this 2019 annual ISO 27001 certification surveillance audit, which continues to distinguish the unique capabilities of Alliant National,” Sinclair said.

And why’s it important to the success of your business?
There’s a better way to boost brand awareness that doesn’t
involve paid marketing, namely advancing your public relations efforts using
earned media management as part of your key messaging and storytelling
strategies.
Earned media management is focusing on journalists,
influencers and consumers to promote your brand through word-of-mouth, news
coverage, shares on Facebook, retweets on Twitter, and website comments and
feedback. It’s publicity that’s created by a third party – and it’s free.
And while it’s not rocket science, engagement is key, as is
creating compelling, relevant and informative content for your brand – stories,
posts and tweets that are share-worthy.
And building online relationships with your core audience is
vital, as those are the people who will help you expand your reach.
Between 25 and 40 percent of website traffic and lead generation results from earned media, and consumers, journalists and influencers who share messaging on social networks can potentially reach thousands – even millions – of people.
Second-tier cities and their suburbs are making inroads in
the real estate market. Millennials, Gen Xers and baby boomers are all shifting
their buying habits to include secondary cities.

Branding helped you choose. Branding is why
“Band-Aid” brand is so recognizable (though there are plenty of other
adhesive bandages to choose from). There are too many soda options to list
here, but pretty much everyone on the planet knows what Coca Cola is, and their
sales continue to stay strong.
Branding your agency is critical. It does not have to cost a
lot of time or money, but it does require some thought and intention. Here’s a
bit on branding in 2019. No one writes the rules and none of the rules are
anchored in stone. But being mindful of what to consider when branding your
agency – which is the public’s perception of you – helps you hit the branding
bullseye.
Brands are putting effort into connecting with audiences in a meaningful
way. Each of these five trends is all about appealing to your target
audience as a way to find success.
