…From submitting your contract through getting that first commission check, Mason knows what it takes to get it done right, and right now! The agents Mason services are thrilled with his responsiveness, and he keys in on that benefit. Mason explains, “I understand these agents have a lot going on and they can’t wait days to get information and answers. Sales are too hard to come by these days to lose a client because you’re waiting for material or can’t get through the voicemail trails at the insurance carrier. I do everything I can to bridge that gap for my agents.” Allowing Mason to provide you with this kind of dependability could make a difference in your business this year!

“I’ve been helping annuity and life producers for more than 25 years, and it never gets old. I think part of the reason is that we encourage our Members to bring us their difficult cases or challenge us with their unique needs, because if they know they can count on us when the job is tough, then they are confident in our services every day.”
Prior to developing and leading the marketing team at Ideal, Karen was the successful manager of a team of annuity advisors responsible for over $300 million in annual premium. And, though her previous position was with a much larger organization, Karen believes the competition has nothing on IPG. She explains,

…Ron quickly realized there were too many Agents needing support, marketing concepts to be shared, and former employees needed jobs! So, in January 2009, Ron and his Partners started a new marketing organization; however, this time around he had a different vision, and Ideal Producers Group was formed. The purpose of the producers group concept is to provide Agents with an opportunity to join an organization that offers networking and personalized services which have never before been available. “I want to promote an organization where the Members help each other achieve success”, Essary explains. “When this happens, everybody wins–including the consumer. All it takes is strong communication and some fresh ideas. I think that’s what I can bring to the table.”
