Pinnacle has earned Dave’s trust!
As the only mortgage provider endorsed by Dave Ramsey here in Minnesota, we have some of the same clients shared by Dave's ELPs. I met Troy in March and have since worked with Troy and staff agents to serve mutual customers. Troy and his crew at Pinnacle Insurance, ROCK. Call them today!
Pinnacle Insurance Agency is in my community, I try to keep my business local to help our community thrive. I was insured through another company for many years until my agent retired, the company was never the same. It is very important to have a good agent, I found that with Troy Thompson @ Pinnacle. Troy has a friendly personality, so willing to help with all insurance needs. Co-workers and staff are very helpful too!
New to Pinnacle - was introduced to Pinnacle after taking the Dave Ramsey course. Has been a good experience and they have been very customer friendly and handle everything for you. It's extra peace of mind to have someone you feel is trustworthy to work with. Thank you.
I highly recommend this agency and am totally confidence they will take care of my friends and family that I refer. This incredible team will always give you the best rate for your insurance.
Plus, on a side note, Troy and Sara really care about self improvement and being better versions of themselves and have passed along tips for me to grow my self. That is something that is very important to me!

Scouting Report: I graduated from the University of Minnesota Duluth in 1999, selling books door to door for The Southwestern Company while in college and a few years after. It was the best training/experience of my life and much more important than my degree. Sold door to door for years after that with Comcast and Qwest. I consider myself super lucky to have been able to learn and sell insurance with my dad Mike Thompson for many years until he retired. I still go door to door selling insurance to this day, many times with my kids!

Scouting Report: After attending Moorhead State University in Minnesota I held a few sales positions before diving head-first into the insurance world. I have been blessed to be exposed to several high-level sales training courses, insurance agent training programs and exposed to successful work environments throughout my career. As an agent I love helping clients truly get what they need and protect their ultimate life goals. As a sales manager I train and prepare our sales staff to be successful in this business themselves. Teaching and training is something I enjoy and to incorporate my sales background with the opportunity to help other people in this industry has been a great fit with Pinnacle. Our culture here is second to none and a major part of what makes us so special.

Scouting Report: Graduated from Kennedy High School, went to Normandale Community College and various other classes. I worked for Pier One which gave me hands on experience with working with customers on a personal level. It really taught me to work with clients and finding out what they really are looking for and that has always stayed with me. I started working for an independent agency back in 1999 and I’ve worked in the insurance business ever since and have really enjoyed it. Giving customers options and providing them with exceptional service.

Scouting Report: I currently attend University of Iowa where I’m double majoring in Human Physiology and Business Management. I jumped at the opportunity to work at Pinnacle Insurance and instantly knew the culture here was special. Being surrounded by such friendly, knowledgeable professionals has taught me so much my first year in the insurance industry. Now being licensed, I am eager to help as many people as I can by giving the best service possible and of course, saving them money. I am excited to continually grow with Pinnacle and add to the amazing culture you won’t find anywhere else.

Scouting Report: Millie is not your average insurance dog, having to wear many hats and having many duties. Millie helps to greet many of our clients with a wagging tail and smile. She also prides herself in her taste testing abilities and is eager to help our staff finish off any meals or snacks they may be having. She also keeps us on our toes during the day with regular opportunities to throw her ball, go for walks or give her lots of love. Lucky for us Millie loves coming to work every day and keeps the morale on high!
