Excellent Customer Service Protects Against Scam

Congratulations to WoodmenLife’s third quarter Make it Count Award winners, Tami Wilson and Eric Sauvage! These two WoodmenLife associates showed incredible ownership and dedication to our members. With their commitment to exceptional customer service, they demonstrated that “Every Member Counts.”

Wilson and Sauvage recognized that a member was the victim of a financial scam and went above and beyond to help keep him from losing more money and possibly his life insurance. They didn’t stop trying to help him – even when he objected, even when state agencies said they couldn’t do anything. Wilson and Sauvage persisted.

WoodmenLife is proud to recognize associates who exhibit such care and compassion for our members. Now, let’s learn a little more about our winners.
