  • Senior Market Sales® Acquires Seniors Advisory Services, Louisiana’s Largest Senior Insurance Brokerage

    March 13, 2024 by Senior Market Sales

    OMAHA, Neb.March 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Senior Market Sales® (SMS), one of the industry’s premier insurance marketing organizations, is expanding its distribution in the southern United States with the acquisition of Seniors Advisory Services (SAS), Louisiana’s largest senior insurance brokerage agency.

     

    “Seniors Advisory Services is a pillar in Louisiana in Medicare Advantage, with a solid reputation and strong relationships that will help SMS expand its reach in the South,” said SMS President Jim Summers. “With SMS’ resources, SAS can grow both its product offerings and its geographical footprint to nearby states such as MississippiArkansasTexas and Oklahoma — ultimately meaning more agents can serve more seniors with more of their health and wealth needs.”

     

    After Dan Jumonville bought the Baton Rouge, Louisiana, company in 2006 and Tim Nichols joined in 2007 as Chief Operating Officer, the field marketing organization (FMO) earned a reputation for hands-on, always-available support to community-based independent insurance agents and senior clients throughout the state.

     

    “After many years of successful growth, Tim and I decided to seek an alliance with a strategic partner who could take us more global and give us access to more technology and respected expertise in the marketplace,” Jumonville said. “SMS has that reputation and those capabilities.”

    Another deciding factor was his trust in SMS partner Alliant Insurance Services, which purchased SMS in 2020 and acquired Jumonville’s two other marketing organizations in 2021: Group Insurance, Incorporated (GII), a full-service employee benefits provider and one of Louisiana’s leading group insurance brokerage firms, and GII’s wholly owned subsidiary, Insurance Services of America (ISA), which offers individual insurance and ancillary products.

    Jumonville, who remained as President and CEO of GII since the Alliant acquisition, will continue to serve in the same roles at SAS, along with Nichols as COO and Mike Bremmer as Chief Marketing Officer.

    “Dan, Tim and Mike have done a phenomenal job of building relationships and growing a network of service-oriented agents, and that’s a culture we share,” Summers said. “This is an exciting opportunity to grow together and to create more synergies with all of our acquired partners.”

    Since joining Alliant, SMS has acquired more than a dozen companies as part of its strategic growth plan expanding its national health and wealth distribution network and fostering innovation among the SMS family of companies.
