We’re proud to spotlight Statewide Insurers USA, one of our long‑time Rocky Mount Business Builders members and a trusted independent insurance firm serving our community with clarity, integrity, and genuine care.

As an independent agency, Statewide Insurers USA provides unbiased guidance and access to a wide range of insurance products, ensuring every client receives solutions tailored to their unique needs. Their mission is built on trust, transparency, and long‑term support, creating relationships that last well beyond the initial policy.

At Rocky Mount Business Builders, we believe that every new connection has the power to open a door — and Lorie Cruickshank is a perfect example of how meaningful those connections can be.

As the owner of Coffee Mug Travel – Dream Vacations, Lorie helps people turn their travel dreams into real‑world experiences. But what makes her such a valuable part of our group isn’t just her expertise — it’s the way she shows up with curiosity, warmth, and a genuine desire to learn about your business too.

Networking isn’t just about handing out business cards.
It’s about discovering the people behind the businesses — their stories, their passions, and the ways your paths might align.

When you meet someone like Lorie, you’re reminded why showing up matters:
• You gain a trusted resource for travel planning
• You build relationships that grow beyond the meeting room
• You find new ways to collaborate, refer, and support each other
• You strengthen the local business ecosystem one conversation at a time

Lorie embodies what makes Rocky Mount Business Builders special — a community where entrepreneurs lift each other up, share opportunities, and celebrate wins together.

Entrepreneurship Can Feel Lonely — But You Don’t Have to Do It Alone
Being an entrepreneur is exciting… but let’s be honest, it can also feel isolating.
You’re juggling ideas, deadlines, clients, finances, and expectations — often without a team to lean on. Some days it feels like no one really understands the pressure, the passion, or the weight you carry.

That’s why finding a community matters.

At Rocky Mount Business Builders, you don’t have to explain why you’re tired, inspired, overwhelmed, or fired up. You’re surrounded by people who get it — because they’re living it too.

Every week, we show up for each other by:
• Sharing real challenges and real wins
• Offering support, referrals, and resources
• Celebrating progress (even the small steps)
• Reminding each other that we’re not building alone

If you’ve been feeling like you’re carrying your business on an island, consider this your invitation to step into a room where you’re understood, supported, and welcomed.

Your business deserves community.
And so do you.
