Just one year after opening a branch office in Orange NSW, Jim Morgan and Morgan Insurance have been named as finalists in three different categories of the Orange Business Chamber’s 2017 “Banjo” Business Awards.

The categories:

  • Excellence in Customer Service
  • Excellence in Professional Services
  • Young Entrepreneur of the Year

Excellence in Customer Service

The award submission on behalf of Morgan Insurance highlighted the story of how Jim Morgan had intervened to champion the claim of a local couple with insurance claim problems after losing their home in a fire. Jim was not only able to get payment through to the couple without delay, but also negotiated an additional $50K in compensation above the originally-insured sum. Jim had also saved a local export business more than $60K on their previous insurance coverage premium.

Excellence in Professional Services

Although a relative newcomer to the Orange business community from its beginnings with an office in Cowra, Morgan Insurance has become well-known in Orange through participation in Orange Business Chamber meetings, local sporting and event sponsorships, and outreach to meet local business owners in person and review their insurance requirements.

Excellence in professional services is demonstrated by the rapid growth of Morgan Insurance throughout the Central West, with its virtual epicentre in Orange. Morgan Insurance has been tagged as a ‘Rising Star’ by the giant insurance group PSC Connect, and in 2017 was one of five finalists for PSC’s ‘Broker Of The Year AU/NZ’ award.

Young Entrepreneur

It has often been said that entrepreneurs are born, not made. Jim Morgan was the youngest-ever agent for Wesfarmers Insurance before starting out on his own as Morgan Insurance, a member of PSC Connect, in 2014. Today, Morgan Insurance has offices in Orange, Cowra, Bathurst, and Sydney. The business is growing at more than 40% per annum. Also known for supporting local fundraisers and events, Jim Morgan is a young businessperson (34-years) who combines outstanding entrepreneurial vision and accomplishment with a strong commitment to the community.
