2024 Trusted Advisers: Bryant Young

Bryant Young, an insurance adviser with nearly 15 years of experience, has built a reputation for simplifying the often complex world of insurance for clients across the Ozarks. Specializing in personal coverages like auto, home, and umbrella insurance, Young focuses on educating clients about the importance of coverage rather than solely emphasizing cost.

“My approach is grounded in building trust through expertise and professionalism, ensuring clients feel informed and confident in their decisions,” he says.

As an independent agent, Young maintains direct relationships with over 15 insurance companies, giving clients access to a broad array of coverage options without the hassle of contacting multiple insurers. “We do the shopping for them,” he says, emphasizing his commitment to making the insurance-buying process as seamless and personalized as possible. Based in Springfield, Young says he and his team pride themselves on offering the accessibility that comes with local service, whether through in-person or immediate phone support.

Young says his impact extends beyond selling policies. “I offer protection, education and personalized service as a trusted adviser,” he says. Recently, he provided critical support to a client who suffered a devastating house fire. Because of his prompt response and thorough guidance, the client received financial support within hours of the fire, easing the recovery process.

As a fifth-generation Greene County resident, Young uses his extensive and deep-rooted network to connect clients with trusted professionals across various industries.

“For more than a decade, I have been a dedicated advocate and connector for young professionals in Springfield, essentially serving as ‘rush chair’ for all things young professional locally,” he says. His involvement in organizations like the Springfield Area Chamber of Commerce and Rotary International underscores his commitment to fostering relationships and giving back to the community.

Staying informed on industry trends is another priority for Young, especially, he says, in today’s challenging inflation-driven market. Through continuous education and professional development, Young provides his clients with current and effective insurance solutions.

“At Insurors of the Ozarks, our team and I prioritize maintaining a local, personal connection with our clients to combat both the hard market and the dwindling agency numbers,” he says. “We believe in the value of Midwestern hospitality, pairing sharp, sophisticated, professional service with smiling, local faces.”
