Brett Beamesderfer, Kempner, Texas
Yes, you can have it all
“The back-office support is amazing to me. It helped me double my income and retire from the National Guard as a Major. Now, I can attend my kids’ activities, coach tennis for Fort Hood Child & Youth Services, and still help my clients.”
Bridget Kniss, Phoenix, Ariz.
My work. My way.
“I created my business in a way that works for me and my family. It took stress off my plate. I have Multiple Sclerosis, and in a traditional job setting, it would be difficult to manage and succeed. I’m extremely fortunate to be the main breadwinner for my family.”
Bob Parker, Wilkes Barre, Pa.
I’m making a difference
“When I was younger, I was sick, went bankrupt, and got divorced because of medical bills. When I’m talking to someone going through the same thing, I truly enjoy working with them to help calm their mind about their potential medical bills. I can help.”
Nicole Treber, Osceola, Ind.
So thankful for HealthMarkets
“In my old job, I worked like a sled dog to make someone else successful. Now, my successes are mine. Most importantly, after my son’s traumatic brain injury, I could care for him for over a year. I would have never been able to do that with any other job.”
