Agent Mark Hop of Holland, Michigan was awarded the Farm Bureau Insurance Distinguished Sales Award (DSA) for outstanding sales and service across 2019 at the Farm Bureau Insurance Multi-Line Marketing Convention hosted in Traverse City in February of 2020. This is Hop’s third consecutive year capturing the statewide honor and sixth overall. Hop previously brought home the award for the years of 2006, 2008, 2009, 2017, and 2018.

The DSA is the top sales honor given each year and represents the highest achievement for an individual in the company. It is presented to one statewide winner for exceptional personal accomplishments and contribution to the success of the Farm Bureau Insurance Companies.

Over the past year, Hop has finished first in life volume and life policies among his fellow Farm Bureau Insurance of Michigan agents. He also earned the top spot in 2019 for Regular Memberships. Mark was also in the top three for new life commissions, and General Lines Premium.  He also earned the number one position in the Life Elite Club for the fifth year in a row. This consistent success and retention rate stands as a true testament to the commitment to providing great service Hop offers every one of his clients.

As one of Farm Bureau Insurance of Michigan’s most tenured and respected agents, he is one of only three who achieved the Platinum level of the prestigious Praesidium Club. He's also a member of the Director's Cup team and is included in the Circle of Champions, the Executive Club, Legacy Club, Partners in Growth, along with inclusion in the Presidents Council. Hop actively gives back through a number of charitable efforts including the Agent Charitable Fund.
