Reith & Associates: Web Excellence Award by Peri Hayes Reith & Associates Insurance and Financial Services Limited, launched in 1914, is a fourth- generation, family-owned insurance and financial services brokerage offering affordable and flexible solutions while celebrating 110 years in business this year. President and Principal Broker, Dan Reith, discusses Reith & Associates as the proud recipient of the Global 12th Web Excellence Award in the category of Website Insurance for their contributions toward digital innovation. “For me, it was a big surprise when you consider the number of websites recognized for this award; we are one of 12 globally for 2024. This has solidified in my mind that we do have a pretty awesome website, and the technology behind it is far superior from what we had previously.” Dan has been immersed in this career for 33 years and counting, working alongside his brother and company co-owner. Dan values the importance of teamwork, expressing gratitude for Executive Assistant, Brooke Moore: “She joined us from TVDSB. She keeps the wheels on the train moving forward.” Dan announces that Reith & Associates consciously-sourced “The latest and greatest technology used to build a platform.” Their upgraded website, launched in 2023, is credited to esteemed Principal Designer, Tom Canterino at LevelUp Digital Solutions. “LevelUp completely built our website from the ground up, customized specifically for us,” Dan reveals. “Their website translates to portable devices while maintaining accessibility, functionality and quality.” “We have learned a lot through this process, awakening our inner designer,” Dan confides. “The technology is incredible. Working with LevelUp has been really exciting because they are continually modifying. The customer interface is so much better than the last one.” Furthermore, the online attendance is with a live person — through a gender software piece, catered toward the customer and which has been specifically developed by LevelUp — available on a 24/7 basis in order to confirm a date and time for a representative to meet with them. Detailing what the longevity of this business symbolizes for Dan, he conveys, “A lot of hard work, dedication, recognition of the importance of reputation, showing up on time, doing what you say you’re going to do and doing what is best for the customer. Our website honours this through a customer-focused and user-friendly format. There are tools for 10TH ANNUAL
consumers unique to us: cyber- crime information, current industry issues, checklists and more.” Those with inquiries are encour- aged to call Reith & Associates at 519-631-3862. Moreover, resour- ces are available on their frequently updated website at reithandassociates.com.
