Employee Spotlight: Customer Coverage with Blythe Donovan

We love highlighting our MVP Insurance employees! Blythe Donovan, senior producer and sales team lead, has been with MVP for over three years and truly cares about serving our customers. Get to know Blythe, who embodies our values and mission!

Blythe Donovan started in insurance in April 2019 after meeting Brent through the Northwest Oklahoma City Chamber Ambassador program. She was considering a job change and was open to wherever God led her, and as soon as she walked into MVP Insurance, she knew that MVP was her next step! Her favorite thing about insurance is getting to help people understand their coverage and protect them if they have a loss.

Blythe’s ideal client would be someone who sees the value in protecting their assets and wants to ensure that their home and auto policy is the best fit for their family. After a bad roof claim experience on her home with a captive company, she is passionate about ensuring people understand what their policy actually means.

Her favorite game around the office is “Let’s Compare Coverage!” She likes to compare her best quote against other companies and show the homeowner which option offers the Most Value Possible. If it’s not hers, she will even recommend sticking with a different company until we can beat it! So many people only focus on the price that seeing quotes side by side helps to show any holes in coverage that could end up costing a homeowner thousands of dollars if they have a claim.

In her free time, Blythe loves to read, paint, dance, write, and nap! She loves time with her family. Whether they are playing games, going for walks, or just talking, it’s always her happiest time. Her dream vacation would be someplace with mountains and her family, with no set plans and no cell service for a week!

Blythe has two kids: an 18-year-old daughter heading out of state for college this fall and a 14-year-old son starting high school. After being a single mom for 12 years, she recently remarried and is excited to be planning her future with her new husband (whom she met through MVP!) as they are getting close to moving into their new home.

Blythe says she will be grateful for the rest of her life that she found insurance as a career. It has changed the future for her children, allowed her to take care of people for a living, and helped connect her with tons of incredible new friends, both as referral partners and as clients.

What do you enjoy most about working at MVP Insurance?


I love working with such an amazing team!  As an owner here, I get the blessing of choosing who I get to work with every day, and I have to say I would put our team up against any!  We are blessed to have people who put service before self daily!  Second, I love that we get to honor God with what we do here.  I don’t want to live a day without the Lord being a part of our business.  I believe that is one of the biggest reasons we have been successful in this industry!


What is your favorite book, movie, and/or Song?


My favorite Movie – Is Pride and Prejudice (2005)

My favorite song is . . . all of them!  I love all music except for maybe Death Metal!

My favorite book series that I have read recently is “The Prison Healer” series by Lynette Noni.  I love listening to young adult fiction the best.  Gets me out of my head and I get to take mini adventures with the characters.


Another series I really enjoyed was “Legend” by Marie Lu.  Both have amazing character development and unique surprises. A business book that I recently listened to that was amazing was Overcoming the Five Dysfunctions of a Team by Patrick Lencioni.

 

What is your Favorite Quote or Scripture?


Colossians 3:4 “When Christ, who is your life, appears, then you also will appear with him in glory.”  This is one of God’s promises when you live for the Lord, not everyone will understand that, and that’s okay, I am not for everybody.  I am for the ONE!


What is your dream Vacation?


My dream vacation would be to travel in the Mediterranean with my husband and all my kids and their families, for like 3 months and really get to experience the culture and the beauty there.

How did you get into Insurance?


I got into insurance in 2019 because God told me this was my next step when I came in to meet with Brent and Joan for the first time! I love being an insurance agent because I get to help educate people and help protect families. I love my job for so many reasons, but mostly because I work with incredible people, both at MVP and with the relationships I form with clients and referral partners.


What is your favorite book, movie, and/or Song?


I don’t know if I can choose an actual favorite, because I love so many things in life! But the song that brings me the most joy currently is Somewhere Over the Rainbow/Wonderful World medley by IZ, with the ukulele. I love the words, the hopeful message, and I tend to always find the silver lining or the other side of the rainbow in every situation. I am an incurable optimist and joy seeker!


What is your Favorite Quote or Scripture?


My favorite scripture is Ephesians 3:20, God is able to do exceedingly, and abundantly, more than we can ask or imagine!


What is your dream Vacation?


My dream vacation is a quiet place in the mountains! My husband and I took a belated honeymoon to Pagosa Springs, Colorado and it was a slice of heaven on earth! My ideal day would be spent outdoors, enjoying wildflowers, the sound of a river rushing by, cool mountain breezes, and the smell of pine trees. We loved the small town and beauty of Pagosa Springs so much that we are actively working towards being able to get a place there so we can escape to the mountains more regularly!

What is your dream Vacation?


My childhood dream vacation was to go to Disney World (like most little kids). However, as an adult my ultimate vacation would be to travel to Ireland and visit the many towns, and villages along the western shoreline. The most famous landmark in Ireland is probably the Cliffs of Moher which is at the top of my bucket list.

What do you enjoy most about working at MVP Insurance?

I love the family atmosphere that we have created here at MVP. Everyone is willing to go the extra mile to help a fellow client, co-worker, or strategic partner!

What is your favorite book, movie, and/or Song?

If you catch me reading it is most likely a book about business or personal development. One of my all time favorites is “Good to Great” by Jim Collins. I don’t think I can pick a favorite movie, but I am a huge fan of “The Office” TV Series (American Version). I like to think I’m a Jim, but truthfully, I’m probably more of a Michael!

I enjoy listening to all genres of music. People who ride with me are often taken aback because I’ll be streaming Beethoven from my phone and an EMINEM song will come on after.

What is your Favorite Quote or Scripture?

“I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me” Philippians 4:13
“An office is for not dying. An office is a place to live life to the fullest, to the max. An office is a place where dreams come true.“ Michael Scott

What is your dream Vacation?

Snow Skiing and a big cabin in the Mountains of Colorado!
