As vice president at Flood & Peterson, one of the region’s largest independently owned insurance brokers, Michael Butler oversees a strong sales and marketing effort that centers on creating continuous, long-lasting business relationships. A Colorado-based company for nearly 70 years, Flood & Peterson is successful because it is does more than simply sell commercial and employee benefits and personal insurance.

“Too often, firms in the insurance industry don’t interact with customers on a regular and strategic basis,” Butler said. “They may meet once a year for policy renewal. Not Flood & Peterson. We are long-term business advisors involved in our customers’ day-to-day business operations, advising and helping them make important business decisions in all areas of the organization. The bottom line is to help clients maximize their profits.”

With over 25 years experience, Butler is a natural sales and marketing leader. He has worked with organizations of all sizes throughout his extensive career helping to improve safety and reduce risk, leading to increased profits. He leads a team of professionals who create and manage customized strategic plans designed to lower an organization’s total cost of risk.

Mike Butler brings to the Metro Denver EDC the same thoughtful and trustworthy relationship approach that he offers clients of Flood & Peterson Insurance. “It’s natural for us to support a vital program like the Metro Denver EDC which is an efficient and professional champion for Colorado businesses that reaches out to and welcomes new industry to the area,” Butler said. “The same energetic and entrepreneurial approach at Flood & Peterson is exhibited each day at the Metro Denver EDC. They are a key player in building and maintaining Colorado’s business presence worldwide.”
