Dan Allison is the president of Brokers Clearing House, Ltd, a founding member company of LifeMark Partners. While beginning his career in clinical and behavioral psychology, Allison cofounded a firm that grew to hundreds of employees who served Midwest families with children suffering from serious mental health issues. He eventually sold that firm and created the Feedback Marketing Group, which offered consulting services and advice on building relationship-driven businesses and engaging clients through the referral process to many of the world’s most successful wealth management companies. Through the Feedback Marketing Group, Allison has been a featured keynote speaker for firms and organizations throughout the world including AIG, TD Ameritrade, Dimensional Fund Advisors, the Million Dollar Round Table, and Top of the Table. He applies his industry knowledge as a consultant to transform the Brokers Clearing House brand into a viable solution for advisors in an ever-changing industry.
Daniel Anderson is the chief executive officer of Madison Brokerage Corp. A visionary and trailblazer who set out to change the world of insurance brokerage nearly three decades ago, Anderson has been sharing his knowledge and expertise with advisors ever since. His innovative thinking and idea of creating a more personal, efficient and seamless execution of wholesale insurance transactions led to the creation of Madison Brokerage. Before starting Madison Brokerage, Anderson founded The Insurance Exchange of America, Inc., a national life insurance wholesaler in 1987, which he later sold to BISYS. While at BISYS he served as executive vice president of national sales and assisted in acquisitions and development. Over the years, Anderson has been a consultant to prominent insurance carriers concerning distribution and has served on the boards of numerous life insurance companies. He currently serves on advisory boards for Legal & General America, American General and Prudential. In addition, he is a trustee for the NJ Lymphoma and Leukemia Society and is a sought out industry speaker.
“We are excited that Dan and Daniel have agreed to join our board. With their years of experience and respective accomplishments in the insurance business, entrepreneurial spirits and independent thinking we are looking forward to their instinctive guidance and a unique perspective from them as LifeMark continues to grow,” added Mark Rosen, chairman of the board.
