Aloha Benefits and Ritter Insurance Marketing Partner as Field Marketing Organizations (FMO) for Medicare Advantage, Medicare Part D and Medicare Supplement Products


HARRISBURG, PA--(Marketwire - Jun 29, 2011) - Aloha Benefits and Ritter Insurance Marketing have partnered to distribute Senior Market Health Insurance products through independent insurance agents in Hawaii, California, Oregon, Washington, Arizona, Colorado, Georgia, Virginia, Pennsylvania, Florida, and Texas. The combination offers unique value not only to insurance companies seeking distribution, but also to independent insurance agents looking for training, marketing, sales and product support.

Craig Ritter, President of Ritter Insurance Marketing, describes the partnership, "We are thrilled to have an alliance with Aloha Benefits. As a leading Medicare products distributor in the state of Hawaii, Aloha Benefits provides a strong local presence to support their agents. Aloha provides its agents with product and compliance training, sales and marketing training, lead support, ongoing coaching and mentorship by industry veterans, and 30 years of industry experience. In addition, Aloha Benefits is expanding their footprint beyond Hawaii to California and other states. We're happy to help them in these efforts."

Hurst Kopp, President of Aloha Benefits describes how Ritter Insurance Marketing strengthens the services they provide to their agents. "There are a number of resources that Ritter provides which help to enrich the opportunity for our local and national agent team. The tools range from lead generation tools like www.Medicareful.com to hosted solutions for lead management, to product analysis tools like www.MedicareQuoteEngine.com, and Part D drug cost estimators. In addition, Ritter provides web-based "back office" tools including agent commission payment systems, management of licensing paperwork and tracking of agent's active appointments. All these systems reinforce our back office efforts and free up valuable staff time. Instead, we can devote our energy to additional agent training and support initiatives, as well as to the effective implementation of core marketing and expansion strategies."

Craig concludes, "The key trends in the health insurance market are efficiency and compliance. Partnerships like this with Aloha Benefits allow each of us to focus on what we do best. This increases efficiency, reduces redundancy and improves compliance. This benefits the insurance company by giving them compliant and highly-trained distributors. Insurance agents benefit with state of the art web-based tools and local support. Ultimately, the customer gets a great sales experience."
