We are faced with some fairly hefty decisions about which route is the best to take. Tag Rome experienced this in a big way when he was choosing between a coaching career in D1 football, or a career as a State Agent. After careful considerations and much help from his family and friends, he chose State Farm. And he hasn’t regretted a day since. Watch how he reached his moment here. 00:00 [State Farm Four Note Sonic Brand] 00:00 [music] 00:05 So, football’s been a great learning tool for me in life, family, and, and just work at State Farm. 00:13 [music] 00:15 I was very fortunate as a young person to have great leaders. 00:18 I had two parents that were wonderful and were great role models. 00:21 I had great youth coaches growing up. 00:23 And when I went to college, lo and behold, they got the 1957 Heisman Trophy Winner as my football coach there. 00:29 So I went and played a little pro ball and then I got into coaching. 00:33 And then I started seeing State Farm at that point and so I began doing some research 00:37 and I remember reading one time where it said the 00:40 top three professions in the State of Mississippi and it was doctor, lawyer, State Farm Insurance agent. 00:45 It kind of made me think, “This is a pretty good deal.” 00:48 [music] 00:52 I left to go take an agency. 00:54 And the that's when they came calling 30 days later to offer me the head football job there. 00:58 [Morning everybody!] 01:00 So, I had a big decision there. 01:02 At age 32, I’d have been the youngest Division One head coach in America at that time. 01:05 [music] 01:08 So, I went through that decision-making process. I made the decision and I’ve never looked back. 01:12 And I knew that I would be become a State Farm Insurance agent. 01:16 Because those guys -- I knew that they were helping people. 01:20 Everybody in the company, that was our point of distribution 01:23 and we were the quarterbacks in the company. 01:27 [What’s going on Lance?

You know, I like to think that you know, 01:34 we’re ah, a customer’s best friends on their worst day. 01:38 I really pull and draw off of a lot of those fundamentals that I dealt with coaching football 01:44 and even playing football and being coached by great leaders. 01:46 Like goal setting, you know, always seeking talent. 01:50 I’ve been blessed with a great team for many years and those are normally the 01:54 difference in successful agencies and very successful agencies. 01:58 [Let’s get our meeting started like we usually do with production and ...] 02:01 State Farm has provided an outstanding living for my family. 02:04 And team members that we have here -- and you think -- the culture of State Farm has been, ah, it's been awesome. 02:13 [Hey guys, what’s going on? Good to see y'all.] 02:15 I think for anyone thinking about becoming a State Farm agent one of the greatest blessings 02:19 is you can bring a lot of your past along, your past passions 02:23 and still do it because you have freedom and balance to be able to enjoy that 02:28 and I think that’s what keeps me going, gives me a healthy balance in my life. 02:31 [music] 02:34 [State Farm Nine Note Sonic Brand]- advertisement spot 2020
