Michael E. Conley, CLU, ChFC, Partner
Michael E. Conley CLU, ChFC, is currently CEO of Hispanic Marketing Consultants.
Mike began his career in the insurance industry after service as a carrier fighter pilot in the United States Marine Corps. Serving in positions as agent and agency sales manager with Prudential, Mike entered the home office as Director of Training with Minnesota Mutual and ultimately became a Director of Agencies. Recruited to General American, Mike was the Brokerage Sales Vice President and due to a serious distribution conflict was tasked to build a seperate brokerage life insurance company.
Completed in 1996, GeneraLife was the worlds' first 'virtual' life insurance company and operated in 42 states with 7500 brokers and with a home office staff of 18 associates. GeneraLife is well known as being the first insurance company to provide internet 24X7 service to policyholders, agents/general agents and real time executive intelligence to it's home office staff. In addition, the first true e-commerce life application, approval and issue platform was created in 1998.
Gaining world wide recognition, Mike,as GeneraLife's CEO and President, 'sold' the concept of a virtual life company to companies in Canada and Holland and also became a well recognized international speaker. In 2000, MetLife bought General American and merged the brokerage operation of GeneraLife with the MetLife operation. Mike shortly thereafter recruited some of the key staff at GeneraLife and formed GlobalFT.
Obviously, Mike's experience with Career agents, PPGA, Brokerage, IMO's, MGA's and leading edge technology provides companies with insight and solutions to distribution, product and service initiatives that they would not receive from non insurance consultants.
Recently, Mike helped create and became Treasurer of the International Association of Hispanic Insurance Professionals (IAHIP) www.iahip.org and is also CEO of Hispanic Marketing Consultants. Both ventures are to provide service and support for the 38 million Hispanics in the US, the countries fastest growing demographic market.
