Private Client Service​
Our specialities include curating bespoke risk management and insurance solutions on behalf of high net-worth individuals, families and small to mid-size businesses.
Insurance Technology
InsurTech
Adapting to the current technology trends has allowed Klout to provide our clients & teams members rapid-responses, streamlined processes and remote capabilities. Each Team Member is equipped with iPhones & ipads for remote mobility. Klout set the bar; as the first brokerage to implement the "Brokers to Clients" model. At the touch of a button, you can schedule your broker to visit you.
With technology at our forefront and our clients at the helm; we promise to continually uphold our promise of "Sterling Service, Reputable Relationships, Lasting Loyalty & Tireless Trust".
Reinvented
Every Process
The diverse nature of Klout's Leadership in industry expertise, ethnicity, culture and generation, has enabled Klout to question, refine and reinvent all of our business practices.
Take everything you ever experienced about insurance and throw it away. That's what Klout did. Everything from Client Services, quoting, and even training was recreated to adapt.
National
Prescence
Klout "Never says No"; the core principles of Klout are to provide the very best option, every time, everywhere.
Therefore, we pledge to obtain markets in states we may not currently be in to ensure complete continuity of service.
One Brokerage, One Broker, One Team; for All our Clients. This motto allows our clients to worry about the things that really matter. For Klout, It's the little things.
