Benefits of TPN MembershipBelow are just a few of the benefits and services available through The Protector Network. Summer 2009 Issue
In today's economy, saving money is more important than ever. The Protector Network (TPN), a FREE membership program associated with your CIG policy, focuses on delivering more safety, security and savings to our clients.
Membership in TPN is complimentary with every CIG policy and is yours as long as you are a CIG policy client. Your membership gives you access to TPN's many services and benefits. It includes a monthly electronic magazine focusing on safety, security and savings and a monthly E-mail featuring new services and benefits.
TPN's Website, TheProtectorNetwork.com, features solution articles, advice and tips for increased safety and security in your home, vehicle or business. The interactive "Videos and Books" section has games and quizzes that make learning about safety and security fun, exciting and memorable. TPN's reference books can help you to educate your employees about safeguarding themselves and your customers. TPN's Website is updated continuously and frequent visits to the site will help you keep your home, vehicle and business safer and more secure.
TPN also has a strong selection of discount partners that will help you save money every time you make a purchase from them. QuickBooks and Quicken offer up to a 25% discount on their accounting packages. Property managers can save up to $50 on the purchase of the "Retail Property Manager Program." Office Depot offers deep discounts to TPN members. Save on your next vehicle rental from Hertz, Avis or Budget, too. Now you can shop and compare prices then pocket the savings.
For instance, protect your home from plumbing leaks and broken pipes by installing FloodStop sensors. These industrial-quality sensors will shut off the flow of water into your home if you experience a plumbing problem and will cut the flow of water to the property in the event of a surge in water pressure. Water flow is re-established with a quick push of a button or twist of a knob once the problem has been detected and fixed. Now you can go on vacation or rent your property without the concern of a burst pipe or a toilet overflow.
We have received many notes of appreciation for the benefits TPN offers. Ms. Lisa Bell of Bell's Fine Cabinetry in Modesto, California sent us one such letter of praise.
"I just wanted to thank you for The Protector Network program and share with you my experience. I have... A business and buy a lot of supplies from Office Depot. I have a program with my bank that gives me a limited discount on some products I buy using my bank credit card. I signed up for your The Protector Network program not expecting much more than the bank program. Boy, was I surprised! I bought a scanner (technical equip is not eligible for discount thru the bank program). On this $229 item, I saved $40 with The Protector Network program. That is less than I could buy the item online at the cheapest price! I can't wait for my next purchases. In this economy, we need all the breaks we can get and this is a big one! Thank you for this great perk."
