I have been approached by many different marketing companies to join their
firm during my last 16 years of selling insurance. I am always looking for
fresh blood and ideas to keep my business evolving into the best I can make
it be. Joining the 3-mentors I feel has been one of the best decisions I
have made since obtaining my licensed in 1991. The recent 2 day training
class in Atlanta was amazing. 1 day after I returned home, I presented the
concepts that Rodney, Chris, David and Gary spoke about, and am preparing to
close my first $1M annuity deal with my first annuity client.
Thank you 3-mentors for allowing me to part a part of your dream and mine. Keep the spirit and energy alive that you possess, and you will continue to build an amazing team.

(PS) I like the fact you are focusing on quality and not quantity of agents. I feel many other organizations have failed once they grew too big, and lost control of their focus.

(PS) I like the fact you are focusing on quality and not quantity of agents. I feel many other organizations have failed once they grew too big, and lost control of their focus.
I have been to major marketing companies motivational presentations. I have
attended what other companies call 'training classes' or new product
roll-out seminars etc.... But I know I have never come out of any of those
situations and say, "I feel smarter", "this information is going to make a
difference!" Every minute, Gary, David, Rodney or Chris spoke, they had my
attention. I was afraid to miss a moment. It's been one day since I have
been back in my office since my first training session with the 3-mentors,
and I have already used pieces of information that they shared with us to
close some sales. Without a doubt, I am excited, energized, and SMARTER!
In addition, the agents that are already producers with the 3-mentors shared
some great business tips while we were waiting for our lunch and our ride to
the airport. Everyone is helpful, caring, intelligent, passionate, honest,
and on the same team. I am looking forward to a great road ahead. Thank
you for welcoming me to your team!

"3-Mentors is definitely a life altering experience for me. Unable to
describe, what it is like to have the opportunity to be part of such a great
organization. I am always inspired by the enthusiasm and professionalism.
To be taught and given the tools needed to reach any goal that I set for
myself is indescribable. I look at this organization more like a family and
knowing that the main goal is to see me be successful. It is refreshing to
know if I find myself in a position where I need help, that it is just a
phone call away. And not just from the mentors but from anyone in this
organization. Every aspect of my life is richer for being a part of this
group. If you want to feel like a part of a true, honest, ground breaking
group where you have the support to reach your goals, the knowledge of men
who are ground breakers in the industry, with personal production that shows

"We have worked in the insurance business for over 20 years, deciding to
specialize in the senior market in 2001. We are so happy to be associated
with the Three Mentors. They have helped us to take our business from $2
-$3 million a year to $10 million. They are always there to help and guide us, always
coming up with new marketing ideas and staying on the cutting edge of the
industry. We love being associated with them because they make us better,
they make our business better, and just because they are some of the best
guys we know."

created training materials and a support structure that has been invaluable.

"Since joining the 3 mentors team, I have been able to relax in knowing that
this is a team. We have all been to other organizations where we have
broken promises, and commission problems. David Gary and Rodney are the
most honest people I have met in doing what they do. Remember they are all
producers as well. And just to sum it up, ask yourself this: Have you ever
had an FMO receive a bonus for production from certain companies for writing
business. The answer is Yes! Now ask your self if they have ever given
that bonus to the producers and did not keep it for them selves. Where can
you go where if you write 3 million, they treat it as 5 million in trip
credits. Another place does not exist. Welcome to the 3 Mentors Team!"

to increase my production substantially. The training provided, the
innovative sales instruction and the steady flow of fresh ideals combined
with the actual coaching have definitely removed any mental blocks to my
ultimate success in my practice. The definition "Mentor" truly applies to
my mentors' as they continue to stay on the cutting edge of innovation for
our field today."

"When it comes to why I have chosen to be part of
3 mentors two words come to mind...."Integrity and Expertise" anytime you
can associate with that dynamic combination you have success in the
making..but they even go one step further and wrap it all up in "caring"
about their advisors..they are totally committed to Your success. As a super
producer I found that this is a group that adds that "extra" player to your
team to improve your winning percentages."

"Our firm joined 3-mentors for 2 of the most important reasons in the
business world: ethics and integrity. In an industry filled with numerous
FMOs making empty promises, we needed an FMO that was going to live up to
their word and after much due diligence 3-mentors was the only one. We've
never doubted our decision to join David, Gary, and Rodney and are
continually reminded how great of a decision it was to join them. The
semi-annual training we receive and the open communication with the other
advisors in the group has consistently increased our business by at least
$2,000,000 in production every year. We couldn't recommend this group more!"
