Last week I attended the Inter-Company Marketing Group’s Annual Conference (ICMG), a trade association devoted to fostering strategic alliances in the insurance and financial services marketplace in Phoenix. They announced that the 29th Annual Meeting will be held January 31-February 2, 2013 at Marriott’s Vinoy Renaissance Resort and Golf Club, in St. Petersburg, Florida. That is a great property and perfect time of the year for the northern folks.

In addition, the ICMG elected its 2012 officers and board of directors at the meeting in Phoenix. I’m happy to report that the elected officers and directors are as follows:

Our Latest Video for Medicare Supplement (Medigap)!
Posted by:

I’m excited to share with the outside world, in particular the insurance industry Insurance Administrative Solutions’ (IAS) most recent video that was produced by our marketing team in conjunction with WebWisedom, LLC. After doing a couple of these we’ve seen firsthand how much time a short video can take of preparation, research and edits followed by more revisions then to productions – I can only image how much time goes into a movie. The amount of man-hours compared to the end result is a significant difference. With that, I’m pleased to present our 4-minute Medicare Supplement video and just as important very interested in hearing your thoughts, feedback and/or ideas for the next one…thanks for your time.
