ShoreOne Appoints Hoover as CMO to Lead Coastal State Expansion Effort

March 19, 2021

ShoreOne has appointed Ben Hoover as chief marketing officer. Hoover will lead the marketing and distribution strategy for ShoreOne’s growth along the Atlantic Seaboard.

Hoover, who has previous underwriting and distribution experience with large MGAs, will work with a select group of leading agencies experienced in the coastal homeowners market.

ShoreOne is currently operating in South Carolina, and Hoover will work with agents to bring the company’s new homeowners flood product to coastal homeowners in South Carolina, as well as other Atlantic Seaboard States.

Massachusetts-based managing general agent ShoreOne launched the coastal homeowners coverage to address inadequate flood coverage last month. The offering combines traditional homeowners insurance with full flood coverage in a single policy.

Prior to joining ShoreOne, Hoover was the regional marketing manager for Arthur J. Gallagher & Co.’s Risk Placement Services (RPS), distributing new product offerings to agency partners. He also served as a senior executive with Brooks Group Insurance Agency as Vice President. Most recently Ben was National Accounts Manager for Method Insurance.

ShoreOne Insurance Managers, Inc. was founded in 2019 and is backed by global reinsurers. ShoreOne policies are distributed through independent insurance agents.
