I HATE Waiting on Hold
By Jake McCoy on Oct 7, 2022 11:00:00 AM
I know it almost goes without saying that everyone hates waiting on hold. The dreaded ding ding dong of the scratchy hold music makes most people incredibly annoyed. I'm sure we've all been there, waiting on hold with a shipping company, airline, passport office, or somewhere else with terribly long hold times.

Armour Is Rebranding!
By Jake McCoy on Sep 9, 2022 11:16:47 AM
In light of the 25 years of Armour Insurance and all of the big things that are going on, we thought that now was the time to announce that we are rebranding! For over a decade, the Armour brand has used the familiar A emblazoned shield (pictured below). While this logo has been iconic, and served us well, we felt that it did not fully represent who Armour is today.

H.E.A.R.T. – What resides at Armours Core?
By Jake McCoy on Jul 28, 2022 10:30:00 AM
The core values of an organization are meant to be the foundation for all decisions made by that business. They are the lens that we use to define culture, influence our behaviour, and how plan to achieve our goals. Many companies have a vague or arbitrary set of core values that the folks at corporate came up. Most of the operations people don’t have the faintest idea of what core values of their company are.
