Did you miss the Cardinals Ticket Giveaways this summer or the notice about our IMT Dashboard Review in November?? We use an email system to notify agents of our updates. All registered agents/CSRs are included in this mailing list. If you are not receiving these messages for some reason, please contact Jenna or Sarah, or sign up below. Please make sure we are on your safe senders list. Emails will come from info@heartlandmutualins.net.
Please note that our fax line has been discontinued.
*Unfortunately, a couple years ago our emails were spoofed. That means someone was(is) sending emails that looked like they were from us, but they weren’t. They contained attachments that were infected. As general practice, DO NOT OPEN ATTACHMENTS YOU ARE UNSURE OF! Please call if you are not sure and check the sender’s email address carefully. We sincerely apologize for the nuisance and inconvenience!
Great News!! You may now quote homeowners AND Farm policies online through the IMT “Vector” Quoting System! It works best for small farms and we are still working out some kinks, but please give it a try! We hope to continually improve the system. Here is a re-share below of our tutorial from 2017. Please call Christine with questions on Farms and Liz with questions on Homes, and they will be happy to help you!
Simply log in to the Agents IMT Dashboard and click on “New Quote”. Once you create a quote, you can access it through the “Quotes/Apps” button. IMT held a webinar tutorial for our Agents on April 11, 2017. You may watch the webinar video through the link below. If you do not wish to use the quoting system, don’t worry. You can still email quote requests to our underwriters. If you have any questions or would like to provide feedback, please contact us! We’ve worked very hard on this system and hope it works well for you!!
We have partnered with ISOnet to bring you the capability to look up fire protection classes! Look for the link at the top right of the screen or you may click HERE. We made a short instructional video to help you navigate: ISO Instructional Video
If you need to turn in a claim for one of your insureds, the most efficient way to expedite the claim is to submit it through our online IMT Dashboard system. This is the most direct path to an adjuster and notifies them immediately. To do it, simply look up your insured through Web Inquiry and click “Submit Claim” in the upper right corner of the screen. This tool is only available to agents. Stay safe everyone!
Effective November 1, 2018, we are no longer rating based on credit! If you run into an issue on the online quoting system, please call our office and we will override it.
We have also included Smart Home Technology in our Security Discounts!

We have new flyers for Equipment Breakdown. Find them on the Applications & Forms Tab!
We also have a flyer for our new Service Line Coverage. Find it in the post below!
Effective 10/1/2018, Heartland Mutual will begin offering “Service Line Coverage.” Copies of the forms are available below and will be in our Endorsement Manual when they become effective.
“This is an optional, premium bearing endorsement that can be attached on new business, renewal, change of coverage, or an anniversary.” “This endorsement provides up to $10,000 for loss or damage resulting from a service line failure, subject to a $500 deductible. This coverage applies to exterior/underground water/sewer piping, power lines, and ground loop piping that connects to a heat pump. Coverage applies to dwellings only.”
We are in the process of setting up direct deposit commissions! If you would like to enroll, the form can be found on our applications & forms tab along with instructions. You already have access to your commission statements through the IMT Dashboard. In an effort to streamline this process and reduce paper, we will no longer mail copies of the statements once our direct deposit system is in place. Please call our office with any questions.
