• Primerica’s 2017 Convention Held in Indy

• by krupp

Primerica teams from across the U.S., Canada and Puerto Rico poured into Indianapolis, IN, this past week for the company’s best Convention yet.

The massive three-day event, held June 14-17, took place in the downtown city center at the Indiana Convention Center and Lucas Oil Stadium.

A biennial event, the Primerica Convention includes motivating training sessions, informative workshops and recognition of successful field leaders who are meeting the needs of Main Street clients.

Glenn Williams, Primerica CEO, said, “Our Company and our Field Leadership have experienced a period of unprecedented growth since our 2015 Convention. At that meeting, we set several ambitious goals to achieve before our 2017 event – I’m proud that we’ve met or exceeded every one of them. I’m particularly excited about the growth in the size of sales force over the past 24 months: As of May 31, 2017, our sales force has exceeded 120,000 life insurance licensed representatives. These men and women are committed to doing what’s right for their clients and for their teammates, every day.

“Our sales force growth comes at a time when our clients need our help the most. It’s widely accepted that there is a significant life insurance protection gap in North America with some estimates reaching as high as $12 trillion. Additionally, studies show that most families are not saving enough for retirement. Our sales force and Field Leadership stand ready to help more families take control of their finances and make a real difference in the lives of our clients.”

• 2017 Relay for Life Campaign a Success

• by krupp

Primerica celebrated another successful Relay For Life campaign. The Home Office raised $86,735, going above their 2017 goal. Primerica is a Presenting Sponsor of the event.

The overnight Relay event was slated for Friday, May 12, at the Gwinnett Fairgrounds in Lawrenceville, Georgia, but it was canceled at last minute due to stormy weather. More than 10,000 people were reportedly anticipated to attend in what news outlets report as the world’s largest Relay For Life event.

This year’s fundraisers included an annual outdoor cookout, a plant and flower sale, a tricycle race, a high heel hustle, a bowling contest, an Irish bake sale on St. Patrick’s Day, a fish fry, an online auction, and numerous raffles.

Primerica thanks the team leaders, volunteers and everyone who participated in making this Relay For Life campaign a success.

• Why It’s Great To Be a Primerican – Monalisa Chowdhury

• by krupp

At Primerica, field representatives have the support of a skilled and committed Home Office team of more than 1,700 employees who are dedicated to helping more Main Street families become financially independent every day.*

They work in executive leadership, marketing, communications, technology, life operations, legal and compliance, and training and development — areas where they are totally focused on serving the needs of the sales force, and they love their jobs!

So, why is it so great to be a Primerican? Here’s what one Home Office employee had to say:

Meet Monalisa

For Monalisa Chowdhury, who works in accounting and financial analysis, the best part about working at Primerica is the people and the company culture. “It’s a fun and friendly environment,” says Chowdhury.

What makes Primerica different from other companies is its unique business model, Chowdhury explains. “Here at Primerica, we are very passionate about our mission to help the middle market. We’ve helped thousands of people become financially independent and to acquire protection and financial security for their families.”

Primerica is an innovator in technology and industry solutions, says Chowdhury. “We have one of the largest independent sales forces and some of the best technology and solutions in the industry. We are committed to becoming the provider of choice to our consumers.”

Chowdhury has worked at Primerica since 2011.

• Rusty Crossland: Leaving a Legacy

• by krupp

 

 

In 1988, the R.H. Crossland Foundation was established in Durango, CO. The foundation, created by Primerica Senior National Sales Director* Rusty Crossland, was built with “a purpose to foster a legacy of giving back further to his team and community.”

“My motivation for the foundation came after the death of my father,” explains Rusty. “Prior to his retirement, he was a supervisor in the Primerica Home Office mail room and loved giving back to others.”

Over the years, the foundation has contributed to an array of both local and national causes including charities, individuals and scholarships.

“My hard work has provided me with the resources to not only establish our historical document museum, but also to give money to countless worthy causes that are in alignment with our values,” says Rusty.

While the foundation’s track record is both long and varied, perhaps its greatest contribution has been to Amanda Boxtel. Amanda, a young Australian woman, was paralyzed from the waist down after a tragic ski accident in 1992. Since that day, Amanda has dreamed of walking again.

“Our foundation has had the opportunity to support her not only in her journey to walk again, but also while she founded Challenge Aspen – a non-profit organization,” Rusty explains. “Challenge Aspen is dedicated to presenting outdoor mountain experiences for individuals faced with cognitive or physical challenges, and we’ve been able to provide more than $500,000 in funding for associated causes.”

Additionally, the foundation has partnered with the Albert Pujols Family Foundation. This foundation exists to promote awareness, provide hope and meet tangible needs for impoverished families in the Dominican Republic.

“Albert is a super star baseball player for the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim,” Rusty says. “We’ve connected with him to help fund medical and spiritual missions to Santo Domingo to aid the poverty-stricken areas.”

Today, the foundation continues to brighten the lives of others through donations and local events. This March, they are hosting Mountain Middle School at their site for an in-depth history lesson.

“My hard work has provided me with the opportunity to honor my father,” Rusty says. “But don’t forget you don’t need money to leave a legacy – your time, influence and service are what make the difference.”
