Craig Baumeister

Welcome to my State Farm agency here in South Milwaukee! As the days get longer and summer is in full swing , it’s the perfect time to focus on what matters most—family, community, and feeling confident in the protection you have in place. Just like the changing season, life brings new beginnings and unexpected moments, which is why having the right insurance coverage is so important. Whether you’re protecting your home, auto, or business, I’m here to help you explore your options and find a plan that fits your needs.

Summer is also a season of renewal—yards get cleaned up, homes get refreshed, and families start preparing for warmer days ahead. It’s a great reminder to take a fresh look at your insurance and make sure everything is up to date and aligned with your goals. My team and I are here to make that process simple and stress‐free.

Let’s step into the new season with confidence and make sure what matters most is protected. Feel free to reach out anytime for a free consultation—I’m always here to help!

I have a BBA in Finance from University of Wisconsin, Whitewater. State Farm experience since 2001. I have 2 office team members focusing on welcoming new insured's to our agency, State to State Insurance Transfers and helping people uncover gaps they didn't realize they have. This can be can achieved through either in person or virtual appointments. Being a local small business owner, I can understand the needs of insureds both in a personal and business standpoint.
