Why IPG?

Independent Planners Group (IPG) is a financial services product intermediary delivering fixed and variable annuities, life insurance, long term care, disability income and structured settlement products to financial planners and life insurance professionals.

IPG’s principals, Mike Kelley and Mike Ferguson have combined industry experience of more than half a century and are backed by a support staff of ten. Operating out of offices in Phoenix, Arizona and northern California. IPG has on going relationships with over 2,000 agents. This group of agents consists primarily of independent financial planners and high quality life insurance professionals, many of which began their affiliation with IPG’s principals through Delta Life & Annuity.

Each of IPG’s offices has been in operation for over ten years as regional wholesaling operations. IPG was reorganized during 2001 in order to achieve national scope and to consolidate production, record keeping and agent service.

We know that as a financial planning or insurance professional time and knowledge are two of the most valuable commodities you have. In essence IPG serves as a partner for your practice by providing case development help, product illustrations, and trouble shooting service issues with insurance carriers. Enabling you to spend more time where it is most needed. With your clients.

Below are some of the ways IPG is working with financial planning professionals to create client solutions.

Personal Relationships and Personalized Service  


At Independent Planners Group we pride ourselves on developing business relationships, which, over time, become personal friendships. We understand that lasting business relationships develop from doing what we said we would do, responding in a timely manner, and always trying to do what best serves you and your client’s needs.

Our mission at Independent Planners Group is to provide quality pre-screened, client oriented, insurance and equity products for your review and consideration. Independent Planners Group specializes in variable, fixed, and immediate annuities; individual disability income insurance; life and variable universal life insurance; long-term care insurance; and structured settlements in partnership with over twenty-five exceptional insurance carriers.

Marketing Concepts and Sales Ideas  
 
Independent Planners Group will work with you and your staff to develop marketing concepts, promotional ads, mailers, and sales ideas for each of the product lines we represent.

Let’s face it! Customer service is the hallmark of any company. We strive to constantly improve our service to you, your staff, and your clients. We understand your business, and work to act as your advocate with all of the insurance carriers we represent.

The changes in distribution of products, company mergers, and service challenges in the insurance industry are constant and in our view will continue unabated. Working in concert with firms like yours we are able to maintain the best contracts with the carriers we represent and assist you in solving service problems as they arise for you and your clients.

We also provide ongoing approved continuing education programs in many states, and for various national association groups.
