DoingItLocal Was In Good Hands Today!

Today I was visiting Marlon the Baker at his food truck outside St. Vincent’s Hospital.  I had mentioned to him that we just started translating our pages on the DoingItLocal.com website to Spanish and Portuguese.    Marlon told me to visit his brother Nate  up the road at 3900 Main Street in Bridgeport.  He has an Allstate Office there and they also speak both languages at the office to serve their customers.

Nate and I spoke at how they would be a perfect match advertising on DoingItLocal.com on  all the accidents and fires in the area and how Allstate can cost effectively protect our viewers against loss. Ironically my wife had given me a envelope with payment for our car and homeowners insurance!   So I made the payment there.  Allstate does protect the DoingItLocalmobile, our home and our office!
