About Us
Your Small Hometown Tennessee Agent
With over 10 years experience in the insurance industry, Shari
Ann Herring and Tennessee First Insurance Agency specialize
in providing quality health insurance at affordable rates to
individuals and small groups throughout Tennessee.  Being an
independent agency, we can provide you with quotes from
several of the major insurance carriers so you don’t have to
spend countless hours shopping around.   Best of all, you will
receive the
same rate from us that you would if you went
directly to the insurance company.

Located in the small town of Sparta, in Middle Tennessee, we
enjoy providing the personal service that small towns are known
for.  Our work is not “farmed out” to telemarketers or big
corporate America.  Providing personalized service to every
one of our clients is our mission.  Though we hope our website
provides you with everything you need, we are always just a
phone call or email away.  

When you contact our office, you will be speaking with a
licensed agent, not a customer service representative.  Did you
know it is illegal for a non-licensed customer service agent to
speak to you about insurance policies, getting quotes, claims,
premiums, or anything else pertaining to your insurance
coverage?  Yet so many companies have people answering the
phones and giving quotes and discussing benefits with their
clients and potential clients that are not licensed insurance
agents.  Next time you call an insurance agency, ask the
person who you are speaking with if they are a licensed agent
and if they aren’t, you should request to speak with someone
who is licensed and legally able to discuss these matters with
you.

Our Commitment to You
We are committed to providing you with professional, personal
service with every contact.  You will never be a number to us!  
Every contact, whether by telephone or email, will be with a
licensed agent.  Ongoing service will be provided for all of our
policyholders for questions about your coverage, assistance
with claims, etc.  Every effort will be made to provide you with
the best possible coverage at the best possible rate.  We will
never use “hard sell” tactics or make you feel pressured in any
way to purchase a policy.  Instead, we will provide you with the
information you need to make an educated decision based on
your needs.  After all, the purchase of health insurance is one
of the most important decisions you need to make.  We are
here to help, not harass you!



NOTE:  Beware when providing information on other websites
for a quote.  Many companies and websites do not even have
licensed agents.  They are name brokers out to sell your
information to as many clients as they can.  You could end up
getting calls from literally hundreds of agents! Be assured, we
would never share or sell your information.
Shari is also committed to helping horses and children here in Tennessee.  As founder and director of
Sacred Heart Rescue, Inc., she works to rehabilitate rescued horses for use as therapy horses for children
with chronic and/or life threatening illnesses as well as special "at-risk" children.  Tennessee First Insurance
Agency is a proud sponsor of Sacred Heart Rescue which is a non-profit company that depends entirely on
donations.  To learn more about Sacred Heart Rescue go to:
