October brings beautiful autumn scenery to Bedford County, drawing families out to enjoy local fall weekends, farmers’ markets at the Celebration Grounds Pavilion, and boutique shopping on North Main Street. Small businesses are the true heartbeat of the local economy. They are owned by neighbors, employ local residents, and give the community its unique, welcoming charm.
As an established business leader who has proudly served Shelbyville as a State Farm agent since 2003, Deb Insell knows exactly what it takes to build, grow, and protect a commercial dream from the ground up. That’s why her agency is an active member of the Bedford County Chamber of Commerce.

Her own office sits right in the middle of it all at 923 North Main Street, across from Kroger on Highway 231. Now in her 24th year with State Farm, Deb leads a full-time team that, like her, is licensed in all lines of insurance. Away from the office, she volunteers with Meals on Wheels and Doors of Hope and is a member of the Shelbyville Lions Club.
“When we support local small businesses, we are investing directly back into our own backyard,” notes Deb Insell. “As a small business policy provider, my goal is to safeguard local entrepreneurs with tailored commercial liability, property protection, and fleet coverage so they can focus entirely on what they do best: serving our neighbors.”
Whether someone runs an established shop on the square or is just starting an entrepreneurial journey, October is a great time to make sure that hard work is structurally secure. Deb and her team are happy to sit down, talk through the options, and help local owners find the right fit. Clients can call or text the office 24 hours a day, with after-hours visits available by appointment.
