Buddy Hornbeck Jr. is ready for anything.
In his mind, that’s a key part of the appeal of working in insurance. “In this industry, it’s something different every day,” he explains - a perspective he picked up from his father, who also worked in insurance, like his father before him. (All three men opted to pair the nickname “Buddy” with their given name, Huntley.)
Hornbeck Jr also adopted a simple approach to business from his dad, who doubles as his mentor: “If you bust your butt and work hard, communicate with your team and always put the client first, you can be successful,” he says.
