🌲 Ryan Hanson State Farm Agency in Schofield, WI

At the Ryan Hanson State Farm Agency in Schofield, we work with individuals, families, and businesses throughout the greater Wausau area on Auto, Home, Life, and Commercial Insurance. Our Schofield Agency opened in 2022 as our second Central Wisconsin location, joining our established Agency in Mosinee.

Our nine-person team brings more than 100 years of combined insurance experience to conversations ranging from family and household changes to business needs and Wisconsin recreation.

🤝 Meet Ryan Hanson and Our Team

Central Wisconsin has been home for me since I moved to Wausau in 2009, two years after beginning my insurance career.

I became interested in becoming a State Farm Agent in 2011. Staying in the area mattered to me, and I later worked with State Farm corporate while supporting four Agencies locally before gaining additional experience as a team member. In 2016, I took over our Mosinee Agency, and in 2022 we expanded with our Schofield location.

Today, our team includes Theresa, who has 31 years of insurance experience, and my wife, Valeria, who brings 11 years of experience to our husband-and-wife-run Agencies. We serve customers from both locations, including numerous multigenerational families who have continued working with our team through different stages of life.

❤️ Life Insurance Through Different Stages of Life

Life Insurance is a major focus of our Agency and often becomes part of the conversation when something important changes.

Marriage, a new child, a first home, a career change, or another milestone may prompt someone to explore Life Insurance for the first time. Existing customers may have different questions as their households and priorities evolve.

Our broader insurance reviews take place every three to four years, creating another opportunity to revisit Life Insurance alongside other changes. The goal is a straightforward conversation about available choices based on each customer's circumstances.

🍁 Insurance Reviews With a Central Wisconsin Perspective

Fall provides a natural point to look back at what changed during the year.

There may be a different vehicle in the driveway, another driver in the household, a recently completed home project, or a new family milestone. Business operations may have changed as well. Meanwhile, boats and motorcycles see less use as snowmobiles prepare for another Wisconsin winter.

Our team brings those changes together during insurance reviews rather than looking at each part of a customer's life separately. Commercial customers receive a review annually, while broader customer reviews generally take place every three to four years.

🚗 Auto Insurance From Fall Commutes to Winter Roads

Driving around Central Wisconsin changes considerably with the seasons. Fall commutes eventually become winter drives, and deer are a familiar concern on roads throughout the region.

Vehicle purchases, additional drivers, moves, and changes in how a vehicle is used can also lead to new Auto Insurance considerations.

Those conversations give us an opportunity to look at the drivers and vehicles in a household and discuss available options based on what has changed.

🏠 Home Insurance for Life at Home

Homes change throughout the year. Improvements, new belongings, moves, and household changes may all create reasons to revisit Home Insurance.

Fall offers a useful transition point after summer projects and before colder Wisconsin weather arrives. Halloween adds decorations, visitors, and more activity around many neighborhoods, making it another simple reminder to notice what may have changed around the home.

Those updates can become part of a broader insurance review rather than a separate conversation disconnected from other household changes.

🏢 Renters and Condo Insurance

Renters Insurance provides options for people living in rented apartments, houses, or other spaces, while Condo Insurance provides options for condo owners with a different type of living arrangement.

A move, new belongings, or household change may lead to new questions for either renters or condo owners.

Our Schofield team can explain the distinction and discuss available options as living situations change.

☂️ Personal Liability Umbrella Insurance

Liability considerations are a regular part of our broader insurance conversations. More than 80% of customers across our Mosinee and Schofield Agencies have a Personal Liability Umbrella policy.

That Agency-specific figure reflects how frequently this topic comes up when we review a customer's overall insurance picture.

Our approach is to discuss liability alongside the customer's other insurance needs and explain available options based on their individual circumstances.

❄️ Snowmobile Insurance as Wisconsin Winter Approaches

For many Central Wisconsin riders, colder weather means snowmobile season is getting closer.

Purchasing a different snowmobile, adding another machine, or changing how frequently you ride may provide a reason to revisit Snowmobile Insurance before the season begins.

Our Schofield Agency can discuss Snowmobile Insurance as riders prepare for winter throughout the greater Wausau area. ATV and UTV Insurance, Motorcycle Insurance, Boat Insurance, and RV Insurance provide additional recreational options as activities change with Wisconsin's seasons.

💼 Commercial Insurance in the Greater Wausau Area

Commercial Insurance is a primary focus for our team and an important part of our work with area businesses.

Depending on the business and its operations, our conversations may include Commercial Auto Insurance, Farm and Ranch Insurance, Contractors Insurance, and Workers Compensation.

Vehicles, equipment, staffing, and day-to-day operations can change over time. We conduct an annual insurance review with commercial customers so those changes have a regular opportunity to become part of the conversation.

🚚 Moving to the Wausau Area or Across State Lines?

Moving into Schofield, Wausau, Weston, or the surrounding Central Wisconsin area can bring new questions about vehicles, housing, and insurance. Our Schofield Agency provides a local connection for people getting established in the area, whether they are buying a home, renting, or relocating for work or family.

We are also licensed in Wisconsin, Minnesota, Illinois, Michigan, and Iowa, which can be useful when customers move between these states.

That includes college transitions. When a son or daughter moves away for school and into a rental, our team can discuss Renters Insurance, vehicle changes, and other insurance considerations connected with the move.

🌲 Part of the Greater Wausau Community

Our connection to the area goes beyond insurance conversations.

I am a past member of the Wausau Optimist Club, and our Agency supports local youth and community activities, including D.C. Everest athletics, Everest DECA, and other community athletics.

Combined with our Mosinee involvement, those relationships reflect our team's connection to the Central Wisconsin communities where we live and work.
