Braxton Langdon

age: 30 | Insurance Agent | Texas Farm Bureau Insurance and Southern Farm Bureau Life Insurance

Braxton Langdon’s job as an insurance agent is to help protect families by making sure their specific needs are met.  Whether they are looking for auto, home, or life insurance, Braxton takes pride in working with his clients and meeting their needs.  “I decided to embark on this career because I’ve always wanted to help people any chance I can. There’s just something about helping someone, big or small, that gives me satisfaction knowing I made their life at least a little bit better,” he admits.  “Whether it’s personal or professional, my clients have my cell number and have been told to contact me if they ever need anything at all with no hesitation.”

Braxton’s greatest personal accomplishment is graduating college at the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville with a bachelor’s degree in Agriculture. “As much as I disliked school, I never wanted to go to college in the first place. Looking back, I made so many memories and learned so many valuable lessons that I may not have ever had the chance to know,” he adds.

Being the best he can be is important to Braxton.  He recently had a customer who experienced a bad house fire. He was able to help him and his wife cope with the loss of family heirlooms, personal belongings, and just the shock of the loss itself.  Hearing them say a simple, “Thank you for helping us and taking care of us” made Braxton know that he had done his job correctly.  He looks forward to continuing to further his career as an insurance agent, helping families protect their assets and maintain their standard of living.

In his spare time, Braxton and his wife, Cylas, enjoy spending time with each other and their two fur babies.  He also looks forward to being outdoors whether golfing, hunting, fly fishing/tying, or gunsmithing.  Community-oriented and always willing to help with a cause, Braxton assists many of Texarkana’s nonprofits either as a volunteer or sponsor.  He has been involved with Texarkana Kids Run the Line Too, Run the Line, Four States Delta Waterfowl Board, Komen Texarkana Race for the Cure®, and the DeKalb Alumni Livestock Show.

Best piece of advice:

“If you do it right the first time, you ain’t gotta do it again.” — Todd Langdon, Braxton’s father

Name something about you that very few people know:

“I’ve been told by my wife and a few of my coworkers that I’m pretty good at impersonations. I’m constantly asked to imitate different people. I can usually tell if I’ll be able to impersonate someone within the first 15 seconds of talking with them. I enjoy getting a rise out of people, and that usually does the trick.”
