Jeff Haupts, State Farm Agent in Fort Dodge is the sixth video of the Business Community Opportunity series. Jeff started with State Farm when he was in college. This opportunity to help people manage everyday risks led him to make the decision that he wanted to grow with the company. Initially, he and his wife discussed moving to a larger community but decided that they wanted to bring their family back to the area and the business. Jeff commented on this decision by saying. "What Fort Dodge and the surrounding area provides is the connections of a small community with all the opportunities of a big town." #business #community #opportunity #fortdodge #iowa #thisisfortdodge #thisisiowa #diversity #businessowner #supportlocal #economicdevelopment #connections #insuranceagent #insurance
