Bartosh Elected ASCnet Chair

Applied Systems Client Network (ASCnet), the users group for Applied Systems agency management technology, recently elected Brian Bartosh to serve as its 2011 chairman.

Bartosh, CIC, LUTCF, is president of Alpena, Mich.-based Top O’ Michigan Insurance, an independent agency. He joined the agency in 1979 as a sales representative.

Bartosh has been involved with the users group since it was formed 25 years ago, a year after Top O’ Michigan installed its first Applied Systems agency management system. Throughout his career, he has worked to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of his agency by implementing current technologies and workflows between agents and companies.

Bartosh has served a variety of users group roles, including presenter and member of the education, communications and interface committees. He was president of the users group from 1992 to 1994 and chaired its ASCnet Industry Solutions Committee.

Additionally, ASCnet elected Maureen Boeing, CIC, CISR, VP at Landmark Insurance Agency, in Cincinnati, as vice chairman for 2011. Boeing manages a staff of 18 at Landmark Insurance, an agency she helped to start in 1998. In addition, she services a large commercial lines book and manages the agency accounting and system administration. She has 15 years of industry experience, all as an Applied Systems agency management software user.

Boeing has been involved with ASCnet since 1995, starting the group’s Southwest Ohio Chapter that year and serving as chapter president for two years. She has been involved in national service as well, as part of the ASCnet Education Committee, as chair of its chapters and communications committees and, in 2007 and 2008, on its national board of directors.
