Dennis Agency

The Dennis Agency is celebrating over 65 years of hard work, and we’re more energized than ever! Since setting up shop at the agency’s current locale—now some 30 years ago—Jim Dennis and the team have witnessed expansion in every way possible. But the best, most satisfying growth, has always been found in you: our customers. We love serving our neighbors, and developing professional acquaintances into long-time friendships is our joy. So let’s take a look back, and see how our past informs our path forward.

Over the years at The Dennis Agency we have seen the value of purposeful change. After developing the agency from a door-to-door post-war operation into a respected local business, Mike Dennis eventually turned the enterprise over to Jim. Following a decade-long stint juggling both real estate and insurance, Jim relocated, refocused, and found new energy in the Broadview Heights community. Between his sole dedication to Dennis Agency and the move, things really took off. Now licensed in every state and working with 60+ providers, The Dennis Agency is always striving to add to our array of offerings.

Ten years have passed since a relationship of a different kind developed—one that’s changed the face of Dennis Agency: We gained a friend and neighbor in Seth Zaremba of Zinc Insurance. Because of the fundamental connection our companies share, a collaboration just made sense. Our collective story began in 2005, when Jim and Seth came together with other insurance professionals and invested time, assets and expertise in a new venture: MarketSource Agency Network. Ten years later, agents and their clients across the nation are still benefitting.

Since common ties bind Dennis Agency and Zinc, it was a natural move to join forces. Groundwork laid and years of preparation later, 2015 finally brought us together—for good. And while Jim is the indisputable pillar that’s supported Dennis Agency—right on into his 70’s—he certainly deserves a little time to relax. After all, it’s his perception and ingenuity that led us to do so well in the first place. Expanded offices and updated technology now position us to continue on our upward track. So while Seth and Jim establish their relative positions, both will continue to make decisions that are ultimately for your—and every client’s—best interest.

At the Dennis Agency, we’re still going strong. And leaning on our history of proven willingness and ability to adapt we find a springboard to future achievement. Because when change is in everyone’s best interest, we’ll be the first to embrace it. But we have to agree that some things just shouldn’t be tinkered with. So our dependable, honest service, and the neighborhood feel you’ve come to value will carry through to this new endeavor. So now, let’s redefine goals and further build relationships, always drawing from a solid, client-first foundation. And as this year of change progresses, we can adjust and grow, together. We’re looking forward to the journey.
